NSNumberFormatter and 'th' 'st' 'nd' 'rd' (ordinal) number endings

Question

Is there a way to use NSNumberFormatter to get the 'th' 'st' 'nd' 'rd' number endings?

EDIT:

Looks like it does not exist. Here's what I'm using.

+(NSString*)ordinalNumberFormat:(NSInteger)num{
    NSString *ending;

    int ones = num % 10;
    int tens = floor(num / 10);
    tens = tens % 10;
    if(tens == 1){
        ending = @"th";
    }else {
        switch (ones) {
            case 1:
                ending = @"st";
                break;
            case 2:
                ending = @"nd";
                break;
            case 3:
                ending = @"rd";
                break;
            default:
                ending = @"th";
                break;
        }
    }
    return [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d%@", num, ending];
}

Adapted from nickf's answer here Is there an easy way in .NET to get "st", "nd", "rd" and "th" endings for numbers?

Answer 1

The correct way to do this from iOS 9 onwards, is:

NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
numberFormatter.numberStyle = NSNumberFormatterOrdinalStyle;

NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(1)]); // 1st
NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(2)]); // 2nd
NSLog(@"%@", [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:@(3)]); // 3rd, etc.

Alternatively:

NSLog(@"%@", [NSString localizedStringFromNumber:@(1)
                                     numberStyle:NSNumberFormatterOrdinalStyle]); // 1st
