NSNumberFormatter and & lsquo; th & rsquo; & Lsquo; st & rsquo; & Lsquo; th & rsquo; & Lsquo; th & rsquo; (serial number) endings

Hello,

I am creating an application that downloads rows of players and displays them. So say, for example, that you are the third of all players, I inserted a condition that displays it as 3rd, not 3rd, and I did the same for 2nd and 1st. When you fall into higher ranks, such as the 2883rd, it displays the 2883th (for obvious reasons)

My question is how can I reformat it to XXX1st, XXX2nd, XXX3rd, etc.

To show what I mean, here is how I format my number to add “rd” if it is 3

if ([[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]] isEqualToString:@"3"])
{
    NSString*badge = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@rd",[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]];
    NSString*scoreText = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"ROC Server Rank: %@rd",[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]];
    profile.badgeValue = badge;
    rank.text = scoreText;
}

2000 ( 2000 ) - ?

/// <summary>

    //test for number between 3 and 21 as they follow a 
    //slightly different rule and all end with th            
    if (number > 3 && number < 21)
    {
        return number + "th";
    }
    //return the last digit of the number e.g. 102 is 2
    var lastdigit = number % 10;
    //append the correct ordinal val
    switch (lastdigit)
