This is my Custom Function and I want to edit it

That function looks good, but is incomplete. It is missing a closing parenthesis that is required in order for it to be a valid formula.

This breaks when the name of the Street is West, North, South, etc.

And, many towns will use different forms of numbers, such as First, and 1st for different streets.
