Japanese Numbers and Times
The topic of recent Japanese lessons was dates, time, and numbers. I found that even though I can say the numbers properly, I am very slow with it, as I always have to count from 1 to the desired number to find the right word :-(. So I have decided to write computer-based selftests for Japanese numbers, dates, and time.
For a long time I wanted to get know the applications
for self-tests in our Information system.
Japanese selftests were a good excuse to learn this agenda.
The tests
are available for anyone logged in to the IS MU. Click to the green icon
to the left of the ".qdesc" file, and choose "Click to work
with ROPOT." ("Zodpovědět odpovědník" in Czech).
As a side effect, I put the code for converting integers to Kanji and Hiragana
to a separate module, so when I get some time to package it, I will upload
it to CPAN, probably as
Numbers::Japanese or something similar.
