Abstract

An Automaton for Declining and Combining of Cardinal Numerals, or About a Certain Internet Application
The paper describes the workings of a website which main purpose is to serve as a didactic aid in the teaching of the grammar of Polish numerals. The user inputs a natural number into the application (as a string of digits), and selects the categories of gender and case; the output is the declined number as a word, together with the syntactic requirements of the numeral group which corresponds to the given number. The paper presents the theoretical basis of the algorithm of this application, and some problems and doubts which arose during its implementation.
