Description
Number to word converter java program converts numeric value into words, currently the program will convert up to thousands. The same logic is applied for lakhs and crores so you can extend the project, only thing you have to do is to increase case statement in switch (repeating case 3 and case 4).
In this program I pass the user inputted number to recursive function convertToWord(), A recursive function is a function that call itself. convertToWord() function will find the quotient and reminder of the number in each calls, the reminder is send getTheWord() function where a switch case will convert the number into corresponding words.
