pluralLogic<T> static method

T pluralLogic<T>(num howMany, { T? zero, T? one, T? two, T? few, T? many, required T other, String? locale, int? precision, String? meaning, })

Internal: Implements the logic for plural selection - use plural for normal messages.

  // If we haven't specified precision and we have a float that is an integer
  // value, turn it into an integer. This gives us the behavior that 1.0 and 1
  // produce the same output, e.g. 1 dollar.
  var truncated = howMany.truncate();

  // This is for backward compatibility.
  // We interpret the presence of [precision] parameter as an "opt-in" to
  // the new behavior, since [precision] did not exist before.
  // For an English example: if the precision is 2 then the formatted string
  // would not map to 'one' (for example "1.00 miles")

    // If there's an explicit case for the exact number, we use it. This is
    // not strictly in accord with the CLDR rules, but it seems to be the
    // expectation. At least I see e.g. Russian translations that have a zero
    // case defined. The rule for that locale will never produce a zero, and
    // treats it as other. But it seems reasonable that, even if the language
    // rules treat zero as other, we might want a special message for zero.
