Convert a string containing digits as words into an integer, ignoring leading zeros.

Examples

  • "four two" -> 42.
  • "zero zero zero one" -> 1.

Assumptions

Submissions can assume that:

  1. The input string is comprised of space-separated digit words.
  2. All words are valid (in the range "zero".."nine") and lowercase. Behaviour for empty input is undefined.
  3. The input string always represents an unsigned number within the range of int and is never an empty string.

Scoring

Answers will be scored in bytes with fewer bytes being better.

Tried to get a solution which doesn't copy existing answers. I get cyclic redundancy checksum polynomial of 32-bit lengths (crc32) for each word and then do a mod 20 and mod 11 on it to get mixed up unique values from 0 to 10 (missing 6) for each digit. Then using that unique value I find the actual digit.

It's a fastcall function - receives a pointer to the string in ecx, and returns the result in eax.

The hashing function multiplies by a magic number 1856645926, does a XOR with input byte, and shifts right by 2 bits.

Saving and restoring noclobber registers (edi and ebx) took 4 bytes, but I didn't find a more efficient way to implement this. Storing the constant 10 in ebx was particularly annoying!

Disassembly with corresponding code bytes:

57                   push        edi  ; edi = result
53                   push        ebx  ; we use ebx to store the constant 10

38 01                cmp         byte ptr [ecx],al  ; check for end of input (here al=0)

Explanation

Yet another port of the rothuvsein method, but this seems to be the first one in assembly. It is also done manually without the support of libc or fancy useless CISC instructions like repne scasb. Just plain, barebones RISC. That means that it is longer than other assembly languages.

Unlike my previous entries, I am a little more flexible with the calling convention.

While the input string (null terminated) is in r0 just like it would be in C, the output is a 32-bit integer in r1 instead of the traditional r0.

It can still be wrapped in C like so, since r1 is still used for 64-bit integers:

extern uint64_t _strtoint(const char *str);
uint32_t strtoint(const char *str)
{
    return (uint32_t)(_strtoint(str) >> 32);
}

Regardless of whether I care about the calling convention, I am going to have to do something with the link register so I can call my subroutine, so might as well push the callee-saved registers and remain mostly in line with the calling convention.

        .globl _strtoint
        .thumb_func
_strtoint:
        push    {r4-r7, lr}

Initialize our accumulator/output variable to 0.

        movs    r1, #0

Call our internal subroutine to find the end of the word.

r3 will have the length of the word, and r6 will have the last byte read. I will explain _strfind later.

.Lstrtoint_loop:
        movs    r4, #' '
        bl      _strfind

We save a copy of the last byte read for later to tell if we reached the null terminator.

        movs    r2, r6

Put the pointer to the string (advanced to the space) in r5.

        adds    r5, r0, r3

Here is the trickiest part: One does not simply str+str+str in assembly. We need to find the index.

Specifically, if we plot it out:

oneoneone
      ^
fourfourfour
      ^
sevensevenseven
      ^

We can turn it into this:

switch (strlen(str)) {
case 3: return str[0];
case 4: return str[2];
case 5: return str[1];
}

It can be done as 6 % strlen(str), but that is division. I can do better.

I could do a lookup table, but there is a better solution than that:

Remember that r3 is essentially strlen(str).

We can do this:

        subs    r3, #3
        it      ne
        rsbne   r3, #3 @ note: rsb = Reverse SuBtract

The equivalent C:

if ((len -= 3) != 0)
{
    len = 3 - len;
}

This works perfectly:

3 - 3       = 0
3 - (4 - 3) = 2
3 - (5 - 3) = 1

Now, we load the byte from the string at our offset...

        ldrb    r4, [r0, r3]

...then call _strfind with the rothuvsein lookup table to find it.

        adr     r0, .Lrothuvsein
        bl      _strfind

Now, we add the length to our accumulator times 10;

        movs    r4, #10
        mla     r1, r1, r4, r3 @ r1 = r1 * 10 + len

Take the copy of the string we made in r5, advance it past the space, and put it in r0 for the next iteration.

        adds    r0, r5, #1

Then, loop if we are not at a null terminator:

        cmp     r2, #0
        bne     .Lstrtoint_loop

Finally, return in r1 by popping the link register holding the return address into the program counter (along with restoring the other registers I saved).

.Lstrtoint_loop_end:
        pop     {r4-r7, pc}
_strfind subroutine

_strfind is the real workhorse here.

C users will find it similar to strcspn or strchr.

It is called with the null terminated string to search in r0 and the byte to find in r4.

It will return the index of the match (or null terminator) in r3 and the last byte read in r6.

First, initialize our counter at -1.

_strfind:
        movs    r3, #-1

On each iteration, increment the counter..

.Lstrfind_loop:
        adds    r3, r3, #1

Then, load str[counter] into r6

        ldrb    r6, [r0, r3]

Then loop unless r6 is \0 or if it matches r4.

        cbz     r6, .Lstrfind_loop_end
        cmp     r6, r4
        bne     .Lstrfind_loop

When we find it, return back to _strtoint.

.Lstrfind_loop_end:
        bx      lr

Looks like everyone else beat me to the same idea - could've saved myself the hassle of writing a script to brute force the optimal string for compression, only to find that, up to index 1,000,000 (it was early, I hadn't had my caffeine yet!), "rothuvsein" is the only possible string!

¸mg6 ì`...     :Implicit input of string
¸              :Split on spaces
 m             :Map
  g6           :  Character at index 6 (0-based, with wrapping)
     ì         :Convert from digit array in base
      `...     :  Compressed string "rothuvsein"

The compressed string contains the characters at codepoints 206, 168, 117, 118, 160 & 136.

    \$\begingroup\$ ...did you really try up to 1000000? The lcm of the lengths of the digit names is 60, so there's no point trying beyond that (60 is equivalent to 0, 61 to 1, etc). \$\endgroup\$

T-SQL, 110 bytes

SELECT 0+STRING_AGG(CHARINDEX(LEFT(value,2),'_ontwthfofisiseeini')/2,'')
FROM STRING_SPLIT((SELECT*FROM i),' ')

Line break is for readability only.

Input is taken via table \$i\$, per our IO rules. I could have saved 14 bytes by pre-populating a string variable, but that's only allowed if the language has no other input methods.

Explanation:

  1. STRING_SPLIT takes the input string and separates it at the spaces
  2. CHARINDEX takes the first 2 characters and returns the (1-based) position in the string '_ontwthfofisiseeini'. 'ze' for zero is not in the string and returns 0 for "not found". The underscore ensures we only get multiples of two.
  3. Divide by 2 to get the final numeral
  4. STRING_AGG smashes the digits back together with no separator
  5. 0+ forces an implicit conversion to INT and drops any leading zeros. 1* would also work.

Kotlin, 83 bytes

fun String.d()=split(' ').fold(""){a,b->a+"rothuvsein".indexOf((b+b+b)[6])}.toInt()

+1 byte if you wanna support longs with toLong()

Same rothuvsein trick as the others, saving some precious bytes thanks to kotlin's nice toInt() and fold(). I just can't shake the feeling that some more bytes can be shaved off though...

Python 3, 85 bytes

I put two versions of my explanation just for fun :)

Split the input i into words and loop over it using list comprehension. For all the words find the location of the first 2 letters in a lookup table ("zeontwthfofisiseeini"), making sure to divide by two - with // for floor division, finally use "".join( to combine into a string and int( to convert to integer and remove leading zero(s).

lambda i:int("".join([str("zeontwthfofisiseeini".find(x[:2])//2)for x in i.split()]))

Try it online!

  • lambda i: lambda function instead of using a def function
  • [for x in] use list comprehension to check through the input
  • i.split split the input at spaces (default delimiter)
  • "zeontwthfofisiseeini".find(x[:2]) find the location of the first two characters of x in a lookup list
  • //2 floor divide output of .find because it's checking the first 2 chars
  • str() convert position to string
  • "".join() combine output of list comprehension to a string
  • int() convert string to int and remove leading zero(s)

Also, this is accidentally similar to this answer but I made mine before looking at the other answers.

-2 bytes from running "rothuvsein" through user202729's string compressor.

-1 byte from stealing Jonathan Allan's zero-free enklact string, and putting it in a marginally differently structured program.

-1 byte because I actually kind of understand Jelly's dictionary-based string compression now

I must admit, I'm disappointed I couldn't get a length reduction from othuvseinfeld.

    \$\begingroup\$ (1/3) Great approach here, but it looks like you failed to count the newlines as bytes, and that you can get the bytecount way down if you use some tricks. Namely, there is no need to decaler the " " in the Split as that is the default value, Lbound(s) will always be zero and you can drop (...)+1 if you add a space to the beginning of the InStr data. Asside from that, you are better off using either a string or variant to handle holding the data coming out of the InStr statement as you dont need to use (i) or Join(s,""). Oh and Int(a/b) is the same as a\b. \$\endgroup\$ Jan 3, 2020 at 12:49

If you restrict your answer you can even get it to 81 bytes as a Excel VBA immediate window function as For Each c In Split([A1]):v=10*v+InStr(" ontwthfofisiseeini",Left(c,2))\2:Next:?v. \$\endgroup\$ Jan 3, 2020 at 12:50

Scala, 66 64 62 bytes

_.split(" ").map("rothuvsein"indexOf _.*(3)(6)).mkString.toInt

Try it online! This is the "rothuvsein" approach in Scala. The 7th character of each (repeated) number string is extracted via (numberString*3)(6). The position of this character in "rothuvsein" is then used as the correct numerical digit. The toInt conversion does the rest (e.g., dealing with leading zeros).

2 times 2 bytes saved thanks to @user by

  1. an even more abused use of syntactic sugar :)
  2. simply using toInt conversion rather than BigInt constructor
