NSNumberFormatter and 'th' 'st' 'nd' 'rd' (ordinal) number endings

Question

Is there a way to use NSNumberFormatter to get the \'th\' \'st\' \'nd\' \'rd\' number endings?

EDIT:

Looks like it does not exist. Here\'s what I\'m using.

Answer 1

The correct way to do this from iOS 9 onwards, is:

NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
numberFormatter.numberStyle = NSNumberFormatterOrdinalStyle;

NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(1)]); // 1st
NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(2)]); // 2nd
NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(3)]); // 3rd, etc.

Alternatively:

NSLog(@"%@", [NSString localizedStringFromNumber:@(1)
                                     numberStyle:NSNumberFormatterOrdinalStyle]); // 1st
