        {
           MessageBox.Show( words(Convert.ToInt32(textBox1.Text)));
        }

        public string words(int numbers)
        {
            int number = numbers;

            if (number == 0) return "Zero";
            if (number == -2147483648) return "Minus Two Hundred and Fourteen Crore Seventy Four Lakh Eighty Three Thousand Six Hundred and Forty Eight";
            int[] num = new int[4];
            int first = 0;
            int u, h, t;
            System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
            if (number < 0)
            {
                sb.Append("Minus ");
                number = -number;
            }
            string[] words0 = {"" ,"One ", "Two ", "Three ", "Four ",
"Five " ,"Six ", "Seven ", "Eight ", "Nine "};
            string[] words1 = {"Ten ", "Eleven ", "Twelve ", "Thirteen ", "Fourteen ",
"Fifteen ","Sixteen ","Seventeen ","Eighteen ", "Nineteen "};
            string[] words2 = {"Twenty ", "Thirty ", "Forty ", "Fifty ", "Sixty ",
"Seventy ","Eighty ", "Ninety "};
            string[] words3 = { "Thousand ", "Lakh ", "Crore " };
            num[0] = number % 1000; // units
            num[1] = number / 1000;
            num[2] = number / 100000;
            num[1] = num[1] - 100 * num[2]; // thousands
            num[3] = number / 10000000; // crores
            num[2] = num[2] - 100 * num[3]; // lakhs
            for (int i = 3; i > 0; i--)
            {
                if (num[i] != 0)
                {
                    first = i;
                    break;
                }
            }
            for (int i = first; i >= 0; i--)
            {
                if (num[i] == 0) continue;
                u = num[i] % 10; // ones
                t = num[i] / 10;
                h = num[i] / 100; // hundreds
                t = t - 10 * h; // tens
                if (h > 0) sb.Append(words0[h] + "Hundred ");
                if (u > 0 || t > 0)
                {
                    if (h > 0 || i == 0) sb.Append("and ");
                    if (t == 0)
                        sb.Append(words0[u]);
                    else if (t == 1)
                        sb.Append(words1[u]);
                    else
                        sb.Append(words2[t - 2] + words0[u]);
                }
                if (i != 0) sb.Append(words3[i - 1]);
            }
            return sb.ToString().TrimEnd();
        }

It should not show pasie if it has amount like this 2356.00
so i have tried by many ways to get paise but not succeed. i have tried ggogle but not getting exactly what i want.

Answer 1

You need to separate the decimal number and get two separate values one before decimal place and one after it. For example in 56.2 you get 56 separately and 2 separately and call you words() function for both of them. You’ll get two strings one “Fifty six” and second “two”. You can join these strings to say “Fifty six rupee 2 paisas”.
