As we all know We can convert number into words Using ‘Jsp’ format string in to_char function.

ind> select to_char(to_date(‘250′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual;

TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(‘
—————–
TWO HUNDRED FIFTY

1 row selected.

ind> select to_char(to_date(‘259′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual;

TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(‘259’,
———————-
TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-NINE

1 row selected.

ind> select to_char(to_date(‘9999′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual;

TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(‘9999′,’J’),’JSP’)
————————————–
NINE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED NINETY-NINE

1 row selected.

But It has some limitations….See
ind> select to_char(to_date(‘250.25′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual;
select to_char(to_date(‘250.25′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string

ind> select to_char(to_date(‘9999999999.99′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual;
select to_char(to_date(‘9999999999.99′,’J’),’JSP’) from dual
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01854: julian date must be between 1 and 5373484

We can avoid this By creating one Function .
This is similar to Ask Tom Spell number

ind> select spell_number(‘9999999999.99’) from dual;

SPELL_NUMBER(‘9999999999.99’)
——————————————————————————–
nine billion nine hundred ninety-nine million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand
nine hundred ninety-nine

1 row selected.

ind> select into_rupees(‘9999999999.99’) from dual;

INTO_RUPEES(‘9999999999.99’)
——————————————————————————–
Nine Arab Ninety-Nine Crore Ninety-Nine Lakh Ninety-Nine Thousand Nine Hundred N
inety-Nine and Paise Ninety-Nine.

You can find this into_rupees script at Indian Rupees

Thank you 🙂

As we all know ,

We can wrap the source code using wrapper utility.In the same way Oracle has wrapped some objects in Oracle Database By default.

But  there is some change in its wrapping methods.

For Example..
In Oracle 10g

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION “SYSMAN”.”DECRYPT” wrapped

seems its more difficult than 10g.
for Examples see these lines from 10g code.

1FUNCTION:
1DECRYPT:
1CIPHER_TEXT:
1VARCHAR2:
1RETURN:
1RAW_TEXT:
1RAW:
132767:
1DBMS_CRYPTO:
1SRC:
1HEXTORAW:
1TYP:
1ENCRYPT_3DES:
1+:
1CHAIN_CBC:
1PAD_PKCS5:
1KEY:
1GETEMKEY:
1UTL_I18N:
1RAW_TO_CHAR:
1AL32UTF8:

which can give us some clues to re write it as below

create or replace FUNCTION DECRYPT(CIPHER_TEXT IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
RAW_TEXT RAW(32767);
BEGIN
IF CIPHER_TEXT IS NULL THEN
RETURN NULL;
END IF;

RAW_TEXT := SYS.DBMS_CRYPTO.DECRYPT(

SRC=>HEXTORAW(CIPHER_TEXT),
TYP=>SYS.DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT_3DES+SYS.DBMS_CRYPTO.CHAIN_CBC+SYS.DBMS_CRYPTO.PAD_PKCS5,
KEY=>GETEMKEY());

RETURN SYS.UTL_I18N.RAW_TO_CHAR(RAW_TEXT, ‘AL32UTF8‘);
END;

Similarly some other methods.

Hope you Enjoyed it. 😉
