int2text or text2int

I believe implementing these self-explanatory functions could make for good perturbations. Though, I am not quite sure which category they'd go under. @rajaswa and @someshsingh22, thoughts?
I'll implement this in whichever section required

[rajaswa]

This will fall under the paraphrasing category for which we have decided to implement a new module as discussed in #34

[someshsingh22]

Which functions? Please send the source.

[parantak]

@someshsingh22, I don't think I have seen this in a research paper. However, I did see this somewhere in a medium article on data augmentation, which led me to think that this might be a good addition. I'll try and find that medium article again, I am sure they would've cited a source.

There are already packages present for this https://github.com/akshaynagpal/w2n and https://github.com/savoirfairelinux/num2words @parantak

[parantak]

So, should we not implement this? @rohts-patil
It would make sense if the user had an all-encompassing package.

[rohts-patil]

We can implement this. But I think it is not wise to reinvent the wheel. Just expose a wrapper class and call the methods from the above packages. @parantak

[rajaswa]

Assigning to @rohts-patil
we can use the already existing packages for this

[shashank-m]

@rohts-patil we can even use the inflect package for this. For num2words.
