UnNumber
On this page
A dangerous good's UN number: UN1203.
Use it for hazardous goods on a shipping document.
Shape
One value, held as text in one set form, with no parts: UN3480.
Example
UnNumber("UN1203")UnNumber(raw) checks the text, and text that isn't one breaks the format rule.
text.parse(raw, as: UnNumber) reads one from text that comes from outside. Text that isn't one at all fails malformed, such as 1203, UN 1203 or un1203.
Good to know
- Write it with no space.
text.formatadds one:UN 1203. ==tells you whether two are the same.<andlist.sort_bydon't take it.
In JSON
A string, in a request, a response or json.write:
"UN1203""UN3480"
