toOrdinalSuffix
Takes a number and returns it as a string with the correct ordinal indicator suffix.
- Use the modulo operator (
%) to find values of single and tens digits. - Find which ordinal pattern digits match.
- If digit is found in teens pattern, use teens ordinal.
const toOrdinalSuffix = num => {
const int = parseInt(num),
digits = [int % 10, int % 100],
ordinals = ['st', 'nd', 'rd', 'th'],
oPattern = [1, 2, 3, 4],
tPattern = [11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19];
return oPattern.includes(digits[0]) && !tPattern.includes(digits[1])
? int + ordinals[digits[0] - 1]
: int + ordinals[3];
};
