Number Format Converter using React
Last Updated :
23 Jul, 2024
In this article, we will create Number Format Converter, that provides various features for users like to conversion between decimal, binary, octal and hexadecimal representations. Using functional components and state management, this program enables users to input a number and perform a range of calculations and conversions. It showcases the integer significant digits and decimal places for rounding, and also word representation. This program is implemented using JSX which helps to take input values and show the output values for different features.
Let's have a look at what our final project will look like:

Technologies Used/Prerequisites:
Approach/Functionalities:
Utilizes ReactJS functional components and state management to create an interactive web-based Number Format Converter. Employs a series of mathematical algorithms to perform conversions, rounding, and significant digit calculations based on user input.
- Input and State Management: The program begins by capturing a number input from the user and employs React state to manage various numerical values.
- Conversion Logic: It calculates and displays the binary, octal, decimal, and hexadecimal representations of the entered number, as well as the integer and fractional parts.
- Rounding and Significant Digits: Users can round the input to a specified number of decimal places and choose the number of significant digits they want in the result.
- Fractional Representation: The program determines the fractional part of the input and displays the numerator and denominator when applicable.
- In-Word Representation: For the integer part of the decimal, it provides a textual representation in words, making it a comprehensive tool for numeric conversions and calculations.
Steps to create the application :
Step 1: Set up React project using the command
npx create-react-app <<name of project>>
Step 2:. Navigate to the project folder using
cd <<Name_of_project>>
Step 3: Create a folder “components” and add two new files in it namely Numberformat.js and Numberformat.css.
Step 4:. Also Install the 'number-to-words' module to convert the integer number into words using terminal. Open a new terminal window and type:
npm install number-to-words
Project Structure:

The updated dependencies in package.json will look like:
"dependencies": {
"@testing-library/jest-dom": "^5.17.0",
"@testing-library/react": "^13.4.0",
"@testing-library/user-event": "^13.5.0",
"number-to-words": "^1.2.4",
"react": "^18.2.0",
"react-dom": "^18.2.0",
"react-scripts": "5.0.1",
"web-vitals": "^2.1.4"
}
Example: Write the following code in respective files
- App.js: This file imports the Numberformat components and exports it.
- Numberformat.js: This file contains the logic for the Number format converter, converting techniques, and techniques to convert a number from decimal format to another base format , rounding and significant digits and also In-Word Representation.
- Numberformat.css: This file contains the design of the Numberformat elements.
