Clean up user-entered phone numbers so that they can be sent SMS messages.
The North American Numbering Plan (NANP) is a telephone numbering system used by many countries in North America like the United States, Canada or Bermuda. All NANP-countries share the same international country code: 1
.
NANP numbers are ten-digit numbers consisting of a three-digit Numbering Plan Area code, commonly known as area code, followed by a seven-digit local number. The first three digits of the local number represent the exchange code, followed by the unique four-digit number which is the subscriber number.
The format is usually represented as
(NXX)-NXX-XXXX
where N
is any digit from 2 through 9 and X
is any digit from 0 through 9.
Your task is to clean up differently formatted telephone numbers by removing punctuation and the country code (1) if present.
For example, the inputs
+1 (613)-995-0253
613-995-0253
1 613 995 0253
613.995.0253
should all produce the output
6139950253
Note: As this exercise only deals with telephone numbers used in NANP-countries, only 1 is considered a valid country code.
Execute the tests with:
$ elixir phone_number_test.exs
In the test suites, all but the first test have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can unskip the next one by
commenting out the relevant @tag :pending
with a #
symbol.
For example:
# @tag :pending
test "shouting" do
assert Bob.hey("WATCH OUT!") == "Whoa, chill out!"
end
Or, you can enable all the tests by commenting out the
ExUnit.configure
line in the test suite.
# ExUnit.configure exclude: :pending, trace: true
