## Descripcion

WordPress groups digits in threes (1,234,567). In India the same number is written
12,34,567, and large amounts are usually read in lakh and crore.

Sankhyaank (« sankhyaank » means numeral in Hindi and Gujarati) adds a shortcode
that writes a number in the Indian numbering system:

 * `[sankhyaank value="1234567"]`  12,34,567
 * `[sankhyaank value="1234567" style="words"]`  12.35 lakh
 * `[sankhyaank value="20000000" style="words"]`  2 crore
 * `[sankhyaank value="250000" currency="inr"]`  ₹2,50,000
 * `[sankhyaank value="1234567" digits="gujarati"]`  ૧૨,૩૪,૫૬૭
 * `[sankhyaank value="1234567" digits="devanagari"]`  १२,३४,५६७

#### Shortcode options

 * `value` – the number. Commas and spaces in it are ignored.
 * `style` – `digits` (default) for 12,34,567, or `words` for thousand, lakh and
   crore.
 * `decimals` – how many decimal places to show. By default the number keeps its
   own decimals, and `words` uses up to 2.
 * `digits` – `latin` (default), `gujarati`, `devanagari`, or `auto` to use Gujarati
   digits on a Gujarati site and Devanagari digits on a Hindi or Marathi site.
 * `currency` – `inr` to add the rupee sign.

Large numbers stay exact, because the formatting works on the digits as text instead
of converting them to a floating point number.

The words thousand, lakh and crore can be translated, so a site in Gujarati or Hindi
can show them in its own language once translations are available.

#### For developers

Use the same formatting in a theme or plugin:

    ```
    echo esc_html( Sankhyaank::format( 1234567, array( 'style' => 'words' ) ) );
    ```

The plugin has no settings, stores nothing in the database and does not contact 
any external service.

## Installacion

 1. Upload the `sankhyaank` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from the
    Plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Add the shortcode to a post, a page or a Shortcode block.

## FAQ

### What happens if the value is not a number?

The value is shown as it was given, without formatting.

### Does it change the numbers WordPress shows elsewhere?

No. Only numbers inside the shortcode, or passed to `Sankhyaank::format()`, are 
formatted.

### Can it show amounts in words, such as « twelve lakh »?

Not in this version. The `words` style writes the number in digits followed by the
unit, such as 12 lakh.
