The best place to discuss this question may be the "Cattle Drive" forum, so I've moved this message...

Without giving you each and every step. I would say that you've to do the following:
Pseudocode
----------
split the number and place into an array.
125 -
5 to be the first element of the array - hence the ones place
2 to be the second element of the array - hence the tenth place
1 to be the third element of the array - hence the hundredth place.
then you evaluate each element in the array.
if the first element is 5 then textToPrint='five'
if the second elemnet is 2 then textToPrint ='twenty'+textToPrint
if the third element is 1 then textToPrint='one hundred'+textToPrint
print(textToPrint)
------------------the end
To handle any given number, you'd have to use loops, arrays for the 'text', formatting, handle special cases (ie. 0's).
This should be enough to get you going.

here is the coding for your question

class Say
{
void before10(int number)
{
switch(number)
{
case 1 :
System.out.print("One ");
break;
case 2 :
System.out.print("Two ");
break;
case 3 :
System.out.print("Three ");
break;
case 4 :
System.out.print("Four ");
break;
case 5 :
System.out.print("Five ");
break;
case 6 :
System.out.print("Six ");
break;
case 7 :
System.out.print("Seven ");
break;
case 8 :
System.out.print("Eight ");
break;
case 9 :
System.out.print("Nine ");
break;

}
}
void after10(int number)
{
switch(number)
{
case 10 :
System.out.print("Ten ");
break;
case 11 :
System.out.print("Eleven ");
break;
case 12 :
System.out.print("Twelve ");
break;
case 13 :
System.out.print("Thirteen ");
break;
case 14 :
System.out.print("Fourteen ");
break;
case 15 :
System.out.print("Fifteen ");
break;
case 16 :
System.out.print("Sixteen ");
break;
case 17 :
System.out.print("Seventeen ");
break;
case 18 :
System.out.print("Eighteen ");
break;
case 19 :
System.out.print("Ninteen ");
break;
}
}

void num20(int number)
{
switch(number)
{
case 3 :
System.out.print("Thirty ");
break;
case 2 :
System.out.print("Twenty ");
break;
case 4 :
System.out.print("Fourty ");
break;
case 5 :
System.out.print("Fifty ");
break;
case 6 :
System.out.print("Sixty ");
break;
case 7 :
System.out.print("Seventy ");
break;
case 8 :
System.out.print("Eighty ");
break;
case 9 :
System.out.print("Ninty ");
break;
}
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
            ....

}

I added ubb code tags to preserve the indenting.

I think there is a better solution.
A switch statement will do a compare with every constant. So you're looking at a whole lot of compares.
What you need is a data structure that will find your information by just doing a little math. It would be really nice if Java would abstract that math away from you.

Dear Shama Khan, Zeba Mojez, Paul Wheaton
Thanks for your feedback to my difficulty... Still I am not that much clear how to convert values to word format...
Can anybody send me small whole class to do this things...
Awaiting for your feedback pl..
