977. Class

977.1. Zend\I18n\View\Helper\Plural

Helper for rendering text based on a count number (like the I18n plural translation helper, but when translation is not needed).

Please note that we did not write any hard-coded rules for languages, as languages can evolve, we prefered to let the developer define the rules himself, instead of potentially break applications if we change rules in the future.

However, you can find most of the up-to-date plural rules for most languages in those links:

• http://unicode.org/repos/cldr-tmp/trunk/diff/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Localization_and_Plurals
