Case study:Processing balance checks USSD-responses with floating point

The History

A client needs to check his SIM cards' balances. He can recieve 2 different types of messages when sending the USSD request:

  • “Your balance is 40 USD and 50 cents”.
  • ” Your balance is minus 40 USD and 50 cents”

Solution


We need to create USSD-template for balance check and assign it to the active tariff.

Using the power of regular expression, we can split the response with different types of answer into 2 types of the response processing:

  • In the first case, we receive: “Your balance is 40 USD and 50 cents” message.

Example of USSD-processing algorythm:

Your balance is (?P<sim__balance_USD>-?\d+(\.\d*)?) USD and (?P<sim__balance_cents>-?\d+(\.\d*)?) cents

  • In the second case, we receive “Your balance is minus 40 USD and 50 cents” message.

Example of USSD-processing algorythm:

Your balance is minus (?P<s[pim__balance_USD>-?\d+(\.\d*)?) USD and (?P<sim__balance_censt>-?\d+(\.\d*)?) cents


The logic of input the values with floating point into the system


We split balance value to the 2 different variables:

  • sim__balance__USD – for whole numbers
  • sim_balance_cents – for digits after the decimal point

After parse, we transform this two values into the one float value using next expression.

  • The first case: float({sim__balance_USD}+"."+{sim__balance_cents})
  • The second case: float("-"+{sim__balance_USD}+"."{sim__balance_censt})

Let's see visual example.
