Convert an Oridinal to Integer

Convert an Ordinal to Integer takes English-style ordinal numbers like “1st”, “2nd”, “103rd”, and turns them into plain integers. You can paste a list, import from a file, or type values manually. The tool handles each line separately and updates in real time as you change settings or edit the input.

You control how the output looks just numbers, or a side-by-side mapping that shows the original and the converted value. It also includes options to ignore invalid lines and maximize the output space for large lists. Everything runs right in your browser and updates instantly with each keystroke.
