πŸ”§Technical Details & Number Extraction

1Number Types & Detection Patterns

Our extractor uses advanced regular expressions to identify and classify different number formats with high precision. Each number type has a specific pattern that captures its unique characteristics.

Integer Pattern

Regular Expression[+-]?\d{1,3}(?:,\d{3})*(?!\.\d)

Matches whole numbers with optional thousands separators

What It Matches
  • β€’ Simple integers: 42, -15
  • β€’ Formatted numbers: 1,234, 999,999
  • β€’ Large values: 1,234,567,890
Pattern Breakdown
  • β€’ [+-]? - Optional sign
  • β€’ \d{1,3} - 1-3 digits
  • β€’ (?:,\d{3})* - Optional comma groups
  • β€’ (?!\.\d) - Not followed by decimal

Decimal Pattern

2Extraction Process & Algorithm

Step-by-step breakdown of how numbers are identified, classified, normalized, and processed from raw text input.

Processing Pipeline

1
Pattern Matching

Scan input text with multiple regex patterns in priority order to identify all potential numbers.

Priority Order: Scientific β†’ Currency β†’ Percentage β†’ Decimal β†’ Integer
2
Type Classification

Determine number type based on format, symbols, and notation.

Classification Rules: Check for e/E notation β†’ currency symbols β†’ % sign β†’ decimal point β†’ default to integer
3
Normalization

Convert matched strings to numeric values by removing formatting characters.

Process: Remove commas β†’ strip currency symbols β†’ remove % β†’ parse float/int
4
Filtering & Deduplication

Apply user-selected type filter and optionally remove duplicate values.

Options: Filter by type (all/specific) β†’ remove duplicates based on numeric value
5
Sorting

Order results by numeric value (ascending/descending) or preserve original text position.

Sort Modes: Original order β†’ Ascending (smallest first) β†’ Descending (largest first)
Example Extraction Process:
Input Text:
"The project costs $1,234.56 (50% of budget) and has 3 phases over 2.5 years."
Extracted Numbers:
1. $1,234.56 β†’ Type: currency, Value: 1234.56
2. 50% β†’ Type: percentage, Value: 50
3. 3 β†’ Type: integer, Value: 3
4. 2.5 β†’ Type: decimal, Value: 2.5

3Normalization & Value Conversion

Understanding how different number formats are converted to standard numeric values for comparison and sorting.

Formatting Removal

Thousands Separators"1,234,567" β†’ 1234567

Remove all commas using replace(/,/g, '')

Currency Symbols"$1,234.56" β†’ 1234.56

Strip symbols: replace(/[$€£Β₯β‚ΉΒ’β‚½β‚©β‚ͺ₦₱ₑ₨฿₺₴₸]/g, '')

Percentage Signs"99.5%" β†’ 99.5

Remove % sign: replace(/%/g, '')

Type Conversion

Integer ParsingparseInt("42", 10) β†’ 42

Base-10 integer conversion

Float ParsingparseFloat("3.14159") β†’ 3.14159

Decimal number conversion

Scientific NotationparseFloat("1.5e10") β†’ 15000000000

Exponential format to standard

Complete Normalization Examples:
Currency Conversion:
"$1,234.56"
β†’ Remove $: "1,234.56"
β†’ Remove comma: "1234.56"
β†’ Parse float: 1234.56
Percentage Conversion:
"99.99%"
β†’ Remove %: "99.99"
β†’ Parse float: 99.99
β†’ Keep original display format
Scientific Notation:
"1.5e10"
β†’ Parse float: 15000000000
β†’ Display: 1.50e+10
β†’ Maintains precision
Large Integer:
"1,234,567,890"
β†’ Remove commas: "1234567890"
β†’ Parse int: 1234567890
β†’ Display: 1.23B

4Deduplication & Sorting Logic

Advanced processing options to organize and filter extracted numbers based on uniqueness and ordering preferences.

Duplicate Removal

How It Works:

Uses Set data structure to track seen numeric values, keeping only the first occurrence of each unique number.

Before: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 4
After: 1, 2, 3, 4
Edge Cases:
  • β€’ Different formats, same value: $50 and 50 β†’ Treated as duplicate
  • β€’ Floating point precision: 3.14 and 3.140 β†’ Treated as duplicate
  • β€’ Type doesn't matter: 50% and 50 β†’ Treated as duplicate (same numeric value)

Sort Modes

Original Order

Preserves sequence from source text

Text: "The 3 items cost $50 and $20"
Result: 3, 50, 20
Ascending

Smallest to largest numeric value

Before: 3, 50, 20
After: 3, 20, 50
Descending

Largest to smallest numeric value

Before: 3, 50, 20
After: 50, 20, 3
Combined Processing Example:
Input Text:
"Items: $100, $50, $100, $25, $50"
Original + Duplicates
100, 50, 100, 25, 50
Unique + Ascending
25, 50, 100
Unique + Descending
100, 50, 25
