USER: Can you make a python library for this?
AGENT: Certainly! Below is a simple Python library that implements the Cornish numeral system. This library provides functions to convert numbers to Cornish numerals and vice versa.
### Cornish Numerals Library
```python
# cornish_numerals.py
class CornishNumerals:
# Basic numerals and their Cornish representations
basic_numerals = {
1: "un",
2: "dew",
3: "tri",
4: "peswar",
5: "pymthek",
6: "hwegh",
7: "seyth",
8: "ew",
9: "nav",
10: "deg",
20: "ugens",
30: "trigain",
40: "peswarugens",
50: "pymtheg",
60: "hwegh",
100: "kan"
}
@classmethod
def to_cornish(cls, number):
if number <= 10:
return cls.basic_numerals.get(number, None)
elif number < 20:
return f"{cls.basic_numerals[10]} ha {cls.basic_numerals[number - 10]}"
elif number >= 20:
m = number // 20
n = number % 20
parts = []
if m > 0:
parts.append(cls.basic_numerals[20 * m])
if n > 0:
if n <= 10:
parts.append(cls.basic_numerals[n])
else:
parts.append(f"{cls.basic_numerals[10]} ha {cls.basic_numerals[n - 10]}")
return " ha ".join(parts)
return None
@classmethod
def from_cornish(cls, cornish_numeral):
# Handle basic numerals
for key, value in cls.basic_numerals.items():
if cornish_numeral == value:
return key
# Handle compound numerals
parts = cornish_numeral.split(" ha ")
total = 0
for part in parts:
if part in cls.basic_numerals.values():
total += list(cls.basic_numerals.keys())[list(cls.basic_numerals.values()).index(part)]
else:
for key, value in cls.basic_numerals.items():
if part == value:
total += key
break
return total
# Example usage
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Convert number to Cornish numeral
for i in range(1, 30):
print(f"{i} in Cornish: {CornishNumerals.to_cornish(i)}")
# Convert Cornish numeral back to number
example_numeral = "ugens ha tri"
print(f"{example_numeral} is {CornishNumerals.from_cornish(example_numeral)} in numeric form.")
```
### Explanation
1. **Class Definition**: The `CornishNumerals` class contains methods to convert numbers and Cornish numerals.
2. **Basic Numerals**: A dictionary maps integers to their Cornish representations.
3. **Conversion Methods**:
- `to_cornish(number)`: Converts a numeric integer to its Cornish numeral representation.
- `from_cornish(cornish_numeral)`: Converts a Cornish numeral back to its numeric form.
4. **Example Usage**: The script includes an example that demonstrates the conversion both ways.
### How to Use
1. Save the code in a file named `cornish_numerals.py`.
2. Run the script, or import the `CornishNumerals` class in another Python script to use its methods.
This library can be expanded with more features, such as handling larger numbers or improving error handling as needed.
