It can be implementations of some mathematics transformations, or transforming numeric representation of number into words (like input = 21, output = “twenty one”), or anything that demonstrates the power and flexibility of Firebird stored procedures.
We’ll choose the most powerful and interesting stored procedures.
There will be 3 winners, each of them will receive tool by his choice

All procedures with short description and reference to the author will be published at www.mindthebird.com
Please submit demo SQL scripts with stored procedures’ texts to sp at mindthebird.com or right here in the group. Please notice that demo SQL script should work out-of-the-box to create necessary objects and demonstrate the value of procedure.
