+%D This module deals with all kind of conversions from numbers
+%D and dates. I considered splitting this module in a support
+%D one and a core one, but to keep things simple as well as
+%D preserve the overview, I decided against splitting.

+%D \macros
+%D {numbers}
+%D
+%D First we deal with the dummy conversion of numbers using the
+%D \TEX\ primitive \type{\number}. The uppercase alternative is
+%D only there for compatibility with the other conversion
+%D macros. We could do without \type{#1} but this way we get
+%D rid of unwanted braces. For the savety we also define a
+%D non||sence uppercase alternative.

+%D \def\Numbers#1{\number#1}
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D Due to read ahead, as in \type{[\pagenumber\space]} the space will
+%D disappear, unless we use:
+
+\def\numbers#1{\purenumber{#1}}
+\def\Numbers#1{\purenumber{#1}}
+
+%D \macros
+%D {romannumerals,Romannumerals}
+%D
+%D \TEX\ the program uses a rather tricky conversion from
+%D numbers to their roman counterparts. This conversion could
+%D of course be programmed in \TEX\ itself, but I guess Knuth
+%D found the programming trick worth presenting.

+%D \macros
+%D {character,Character}
+%D
+%D Converting a number into a character can of course only
+%D be done with numbers less or equal to~26. At the cost of
+%D much more macros a faster conversion is possible, using:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \setvalue{char1}{a} \def\character#1{\getvalue{char#1}}
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D But we prefer a simpel \type{\case}.
+%D
+%D \showsetup{character}
+%D \showsetup{Character}
+
+\def\unknowncharacter{-} % else in lists \relax
+
+\def\character#1{\ctxlua{converters.character (\number#1)}}
+\def\Character#1{\ctxlua{converters.Character (\number#1)}}
+
+%D \macros
+%D {characters,Characters}
+%D
+%D Converting large numbers is supported by the next two
+%D macros. This time we just count on: $\cdots$~x, y, z, aa,
+%D ab, ac~$\cdots$.
+%D
+%D \showsetup{characters}
+%D \showsetup{Characters}
+
+\def\characters#1{\ctxlua{converters.characters(\number#1)}}
+\def\Characters#1{\ctxlua{converters.Characters(\number#1)}}
+
+%D \macros

+%D
+%D Why should we only honour the romans, and not the greek?
+
+\let\greeknumerals\gobbleoneargument
+\let\Greeknumerals\gobbleoneargument

+%D \macros

+ \ruledhbox spread .15em{\hss\uppercased{\romannumerals{#1}}\hss}}}
+
+%D \macros
+%D {protectconversion}
+%D
+%D The previous two commands are not robust enough to be
+%D passed to \type{\write} en \type{\message}. That's why we
+%D introduce:
+
+\def\protectconversion
+ {\def\doconvertcharacters##1{##1}} % was \relax
+ %{\def\doconvertcharacters##1{\ifcase0##1 0\else##1\fi}} more save
+
+%D \macros
+%D {normaltime,normalyear,normalmonth,normalday}
+%D
+%D The last part of this module is dedicated to converting
+%D dates. Because we want to use as meaningful commands as
+%D possible, and because \TEX\ already uses up some of those,
+%D we save the original meanings.
+
+\savenormalmeaning\time
+\savenormalmeaning\year
+\savenormalmeaning\month
+\savenormalmeaning\day
+
+%D \macros
+%D {month,MONTH}
+%D
+%D Converting the month number into a month name is done
+%D using a case statement, abstact values and the label
+%D mechanism. This way users can easily redefine a label from
+%D for instance german into austrian.
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \setuplabeltext [de] [january=J\"anner]
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D Anyhow, the conversion looks like:
+
+\def\domonthtag#1%
+ {\ifcase#1%
+ \or \v!january \or \v!february \or \v!march \or \v!april
+ \or \v!may \or \v!june \or \v!july \or \v!august
+ \or \v!september \or \v!october \or \v!november \or \v!december
+ \else
+ \v!unknown
+ \fi}
+
+\def\doconvertmonthlong #1{\labeltext{\domonthtag{#1}}}
+\def\doconvertmonthshort#1{\labeltext{\domonthtag{#1}:\s!mnem}}
+
+\let\doconvertmonth\doconvertmonthlong
+
+%D We redefine the \TEX\ primitive \type{\month} as:
+%D
+%D \showsetup{month}
+%D \showsetup{MONTH}
+
+\def\monthlong {\doconvertmonthlong}
+\def\monthshort{\doconvertmonthshort}
+\def\month {\doconvertmonth}
+
+\def\MONTH #1{{\let\labeltext\LABELTEXT\month {#1}}}
+\def\MONTHLONG #1{{\let\labeltext\LABELTEXT\monthlong {#1}}}
+\def\MONTHSHORT#1{{\let\labeltext\LABELTEXT\monthshort{#1}}}
+
+%D We never explicitly needed this, but Tobias Burnus pointed
+%D out that it would be handy to convert to the day of the
+%D week. In doing so, we have to calculate the total number of
+%D days, taking leapyears into account. For those who are
+%D curious:
+%D
+%D \startitemize[packed]
+%D \item years that can be divided by 4 are leapyears
+%D \item exept years that can be divided by 100
+%D \item unless years can be divided by 400
+%D \stopitemize
+%D
+%D This makes the year 1900 into a normal year and 1996 and
+%D 2000 into leap years, right? Well, converting to string
+%D looks familiar:
+
+\def\doconvertday#1%
+ {\labeltext
+ {\ifcase#1
+ \or \v!sunday \or \v!monday \or \v!tuesday \or \v!wednesday
+ \or \v!thursday \or \v!friday \or \v!saturday \fi}}
+
+%D \macros
+%D {getdayoftheweek, dayoftheweek}
+%D
+%D The conversion algoritm is an old one and a translation from
+%D a procedure written in MODULA~2 back in the 80's. I finaly
+%D found the 4--100-400 rules in some enclopedia. Look at this
+%D messy low level routine that takes the day, month and year
+%D as arguments:
+
+\newcount\normalweekday
+
+\def\getdayoftheweek#1#2#3{\normalweekday\ctxlua{converters.weekday(\number#1,\number#2,\number#3)}}
+\def\dayoftheweek #1#2#3{\doconvertday{\ctxlua{converters.weekday(\number#1,\number#2,\number#3)}}}
+
+%D Using this macro in
+%D
+%D \startbuffer
+%D monday: \dayoftheweek {4} {5} {1992}
+%D friday: \dayoftheweek {16} {6} {1995}
+%D monday: \dayoftheweek {25} {8} {1997}
+%D saturday: \dayoftheweek {30} {8} {1997}
+%D tuesday: \dayoftheweek {2} {1} {1996}
+%D tuesday: \dayoftheweek {7} {1} {1997}
+%D tuesday: \dayoftheweek {13} {1} {1998}
+%D friday: \dayoftheweek {1} {1} {2000}

+%D
+%D The macro \type {\getdayoftheweek} can be used to calculate
+%D the number \type {\normalweekday}.
+
+%D \macros
+%D {weekday,WEEKDAY}
+%D
+%D The first one is sort of redundant. It takes the day
+%D number argument.
+%D
+%D \showsetup{weekday}
+%D \showsetup{WEEKDAY}

+\def\weekday

+%D {}
+%D \stoptyping
+
+%D \macros
+%D {doifleapyearelse,
+%D getdayspermonth}
+%D
+%D Sometimes we need to know if we're dealing with a
+%D leapyear, so here is a testmacro:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \doifleapyearelse{year}{yes}{no}
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D An example of its use can be seen in the macro
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \getdayspermonth{year}{month}
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D The number of days is available in the macro \type
+%D {\numberofdays}.

+
+\def\dayspermonth#1#2%
+ {\ctxlua{converters.nofdays(\number#1,\number#2)}}
+
+% problem is that we calculate with those numbers
+%
+% \def\time {\numexpr\ctxlua{converters.textime()}\relax}
+% \def\year {\numexpr\ctxlua{converters.year ()}\relax}
+% \def\month{\numexpr\ctxlua{converters.month ()}\relax}

+% \dayspermonth{2000}{2}
+% [\the\normaltime=\the\time]
+
+%D \macros
+%D {currentdate, date}
+%D
+%D We use these conversion macros in the date formatting
+%D macro:
+%D
+%D \showsetup{currentdate}
+%D
+%D This macro takes care of proper spacing and delivers for
+%D instance:
+%D
+%D \startbuffer
+%D \currentdate[weekday,day,month,year] % still dutch example
+%D \currentdate[WEEKDAY,day,MONTH,year] % still dutch example
+%D \stopbuffer
+%D
+%D \startvoorbeeld
+%D \startlines
+%D \getbuffer
+%D \stoplines
+%D \stopvoorbeeld
+%D
+%D depending of course on the keywords. Here we gave:
+%D
+%D \typebuffer
+%D
+%D If needed one can also add non||keywords, like in
+%D
+%D \startbuffer
+%D \currentdate[dd,--,mm,--,yy]
+%D \stopbuffer
+%D
+%D \typebuffer
+%D
+%D or typeset: \getbuffer.
+%D
+%D When no argument is passed, the current date is given as
+%D specified per language (using \type{\installlanguage}).
+%D
+%D \showsetup{currentdate}
+%D
+%D \startbuffer
+%D \date
+%D \date[d=12,m=12,y=1998][weekday]
+%D \date[d=12,m=12,y=1998]
+%D \stopbuffer
+%D
+%D We can also typeset arbitrary dates, using the previous
+%D command.
+%D
+%D \typebuffer
+%D
+%D The date is specified by one character keys. When no date
+%D is given, we get the current date.
+%D
+%D \startlines

+%D \macros
+%D {defineconversion, convertnumber}
+%D
+%D Conversion involves the macros that we implemented earlier
+%D in this module.
+%D
+%D \showsetup{defineconversion}
+%D \showsetup{convertnumber}
+%D
+%D We can feed this command with conversion macros as well as
+%D a set of conversion symbols. Both need a bit different
+%D treatment.
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \defineconversion [roman] [\romannumerals]
+%D \defineconversion [set 1] [$\star$,$\bullet$,$\ast$]
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D You can define a language dependent conversion with:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \defineconversion [en] [whatever] [\something]
+%D \stoptyping
+
+% \def\dodefineconversion[#1][#2]%
+% {\ConvertConstantAfter\doifinstringelse{,}{#2}

+%D {\ConvertConstantAfter\doifinstringelse{,}{#3}
+%D {\scratchcounter\zerocount

+%D \setvalue{\??cv#1#2}##1{\executeifdefined{\??cv#1#2##1}\unknown}} % catch out-of-range numbers
+%D {\setvalue{\??cv#1#2}{#3}}}
+%D \stoptyping
+
+%D This approach has the disadvantage that when you run out of
+%D symbols you get unknown results. The following implementation
+%D permits overloading of the converter:
+
+\def\dododefineconversion[#1][#2][#3]%
+ {\ConvertConstantAfter\doifinstringelse{,}{#3}
+ {\scratchcounter\zerocount
+ \def\docommand##1%

+ \processcommalist[#3]\docommand
+ \setevalue{\??cv#1#2}##1%
+ {\noexpand\docheckedconversion{#1#2}{\the\scratchcounter}{##1}}}
+ {\setvalue{\??cv#1#2}{#3}}}
+
+\def\docheckedconversion#1#2#3% class maxnumber number
+ {\executeifdefined{\??cv#1#3}\unknown}
+
+%D When Gerben reported problems with footnote numbering per page,
+%D Taco came with the following wrap around solution. So, let's
+%D overload the checked conversion macro:
+
+\def\docheckedconversion#1#2#3% class maxnumber number
+ {\executeifdefined{\??cv#1\modulatednumber{#2}{#3}}\unknown}
+
+%D Taco's modulo code is implemented in the system module
+%D \type {syst-con}.
+
+%D If a conversion is just a font switch then we need to make sure
+%D that the number is indeed end up as number in the input, so we
+%D need to handle the second argument.

+%D number~31.

+%D As longs as symbols are linked to levels or numbers, we can
+%D also use the conversion mechanism, but in for instance the
+%D itemization macros, we prefer symbols because they can more
+%D easier be (partially) redefined. Symbols are implemented
+%D in another module.
