This R package provides useful functions to work with Chinese numerals in R, such as conversion between Chinese numerals and Arabic numerals as well as detection and extraction of Chinese numerals in character objects and string.
This package supports conversion of numbers with absolute value not greater than 1e+18. Note that numbers in R are in double precision that carries approximately 16 significant digits. The conversion accuracy for numbers beyond this limit is therefore not guaranteed.
