I'm afraid that's not quite it for Slovenian.  Our language
computes singular, dual or plural forms regarding to "mod 100",
not "mod 10":

The same expression is for (BTW, "datoteka" means "file"):

n%100==1:
	1 datoteka, 101 datoteka, 201 datoteka, ...

n%100==2:
	2 datoteki, 102 datoteki, 202 datoteki, ...

n%100==3 or n%100==4:
	3 datoteke, 4 datoteke, 103 datoteke, 1003 datoteke, ...

otherwise:
	0 datotek, 5 datotek, 6 datotek, 10 datotek,
	11 datotek, 99 datotek, 100 datotek,
	105 datotek, 1005 datotek, etc.
