Problem 3018. Calculator spelling - Numbers to Letters
Using the numbers on a calculator, and rotating the display 180 degrees, many words can be spelled. In particular, the following numbers can characterize the following letters:
- 0 = O
- 1 = I
- 2 = Z
- 3 = E
- 4 = h
- 5 = S
- 6 = g
- 7 = L
- 8 = B
There are a few other options, but we'll stick with these. The number may be a have a decimal with a leading zero, to produce a trailing O. If this is the case, ignore the decimal point. Write a function that takes a number as input and returns the word spelled (upside down) by the calculator. Make sure to get the case (capital vs. lowercase) right for each number/letter.
