I have phone number in below format
1-1xx-2xx-9565
Currently VO read it as \"One (pause) One x x
Here is the code in Swift
public func retrieveAccessiblePhoneNumber(phoneNumber: String) -> String {
// We want to know if a character is a number or not
let characterSet = NSCharacterSet(charactersInString: "0123456789")
// We use this formatter to spell out individual numbers
let numberFormatter = NSNumberFormatter()
numberFormatter.numberStyle = .SpellOutStyle
var spelledOutComponents = [String]()
let range = Range(start: phoneNumber.startIndex, end: phoneNumber.endIndex)
// Loop over the phone number add add the accessible variants to the array
phoneNumber.enumerateSubstringsInRange(range,
options: NSStringEnumerationOptions.ByComposedCharacterSequences) { (substring, substringRange, enclosingRange, stop) -> () in
// Check if it's a number
if let substr = substring where substr.rangeOfCharacterFromSet(characterSet) != nil {
if let number = Int(substr) {
// Is a number
let nsNumber = NSNumber(integer: number)
spelledOutComponents.append(numberFormatter.stringFromNumber(nsNumber)!)
}
} else {
// Is not a number
spelledOutComponents.append(substring!)
}
}
// Finally separate the components with spaces (so that the string doesn't become "ninefivesixfive".
return spelledOutComponents.joinWithSeparator(" ")
}
