Numbers buried in prose are awkward to pull out, especially when you only want whole numbers or only decimals.
Number Extractor lists numbers and can filter to integers or decimals and sort them by value.
How to use Extract Numbers from Text
- Paste the text that contains numbers into the input box.
- Choose all, integer-only or decimal-only, then optionally sort the numbers by value.
- Copy the number list, or download it as a .txt file.
Use cases
- Pulling figures out of a pasted report for a quick total.
- Extracting only the decimal values from mixed text.
- Collecting whole numbers from a block of notes.
Good to know
Number Extractor matches integers and decimals, including grouped numbers with thousands separators and a leading minus sign, then lets you keep all values, only integers or only decimals. Sorting compares the numeric value rather than the text.
Frequently asked questions
Are negative numbers and decimals recognised?
Yes. A leading minus sign and a decimal point are both captured, so values like -3 and 12.5 are extracted.
How are thousands separators handled?
Grouped numbers such as 1,200 are matched as a single value, and sorting reads them by their numeric size.
Can I keep only whole numbers?
Yes. The integer filter drops any value containing a decimal point, leaving only whole numbers.
