Class Greek.Ancient.AtticNumerals

Attic numerals were used in Ancient Greece roughly from 7th century BCE until they were replaced by standard Greek numerals in 3rd century BCE.

Process(String)

Parses the numeric value of an Attic numeral, and returns the associated unit if possible.

Declaration
public NumeralValue<Greek.Ancient.Units> Process(string text)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String text

The numeral text to parse.
Returns
Type Description
NumeralValue<Greek.Ancient.Units>

A numeric value representing the value of text, with a unit if one could be found.

ProcessNumeralsInText(String, Func<NumeralValue<Greek.Ancient.Units>, String>)

Processes all Attic numerals in the text.

Declaration
public string ProcessNumeralsInText(string text, Func<NumeralValue<Greek.Ancient.Units>, string> numeralProcessor)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String text

The text to search for numerals.
Func<NumeralValue<Greek.Ancient.Units>, System.String> numeralProcessor

The function to use to transform the value from Process(String) into a string to put in the text.
Returns
Type Description
System.String

A copy of text, but with all detected Attic numerals processed using numeralProcessor.
Remarks

Attic numeral support is somewhat contrived, as there's no real way to distinguish them from other Greek text and so in-text detection works based on presence of Unicode overbar characters. This isn't realistically something that would be seen in practice, and the special Attic characters often don't even work with the overbar combining character. Perhaps a better solution is possible, but overbars seem to stand the highest chance of having actually been in use, so that's what it looks for.
If this particular function is something you need, open an issue and provide an example of what you need to romanize.
For general parsing of Attic numerals, check out Process(String).
