## negative_spelling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Instructions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this exercise, you'll create the function `negative_spell` that will spell a negative number.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are some examples of what your function should return:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `-1` -> `"minus one"`
|
|
|
|
- `-14` -> `"minus fourteen"`
|
|
|
|
- `-348` -> `"minus three hundred forty-eight"`
|
|
|
|
- `-1002` -> `"minus one thousand two"`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> Only negative numbers will be accepted, up to `"minus one million"`.
|
|
|
|
> If a positive number is passed the function should return `"error: positive number"`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Expected function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
|
|
pub fn negative_spell(n: i64) -> String {
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is a program to test your function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
|
|
use negative_spelling::*;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
|
|
println!("{}", negative_spell(-1234));
|
|
|
|
println!("{}", negative_spell(100));
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And its output:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
$ cargo run
|
|
|
|
minus one thousand two hundred thirty-four
|
|
|
|
error: positive number
|
|
|
|
$
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
