Problem 2227. Broken numlock key, oppps !
The numlock key on my computer is pressed and is now broken, so I cant press it to switch off the numlock mode. And hence I am not able to read whatever I am typing. Can you help me decode what I am typing?
Example
Input: "0y n4036c2 2ey 5s br62en!" Output: "my numlock key is broken!"
Happy decoding!

Is the '/' character supposed to have two different mappings? As that makes things much more complicated...
Actually it makes impossible to solve for some cases. For instance we can never know if the number 2536 is truly the number 2536 or if it is the word kilo except by the context of some phrase (human comprehension). All solutions use some nongeneral trick to identify such cases.
