![Task](http://static.miraheze.org/rosettacodewiki/thumb/b/ba/Rcode-button-task-crushed.png/64px-Rcode-button-task-crushed.png)
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create a function taking a positive integer as its parameter and returning a string containing the Roman Numeral representation of that integer.
Modern Roman numerals are written by expressing each digit separately starting with the left most digit and skipping any digit with a value of zero. In Roman numerals 1990 is rendered: 1000=M, 900=CM, 90=XC; resulting in MCMXC. 2008 is written as 2000=MM, 8=VIII; or MMVIII. 1666 uses each Roman symbol in descending order: MDCLXVI.
ActionScript
<lang ActionScript>function arabic2roman(num:Number):String { var lookup:Object = {M:1000, CM:900, D:500, CD:400, C:100, XC:90, L:50, XL:40, X:10, IX:9, V:5, IV:4, I:1}; var roman:String = "", i:String; for (i in lookup) { while (num >= lookup[i]) { roman += i; num -= lookup[i]; } } return roman; } trace("1990 in roman is " + arabic2roman(1990)); trace("2008 in roman is " + arabic2roman(2008)); trace("1666 in roman is " + arabic2roman(1666)); </lang> Output:
1990 in roman is MCMXC 2008 in roman is MMVIII 1666 in roman is MDCLXVI
And the reverse: <lang ActionScript>function roman2arabic(roman:String):Number { var romanArr:Array = roman.toUpperCase().split(); var lookup:Object = {I:1, V:5, X:10, L:50, C:100, D:500, M:1000}; var num:Number = 0, val:Number = 0; while (romanArr.length) { val = lookup[romanArr.shift()]; num += val * (val < lookup[romanArr[0]] ? -1 : 1); } return num; } trace("MCMXC in arabic is " + roman2arabic("MCMXC")); trace("MMVIII in arabic is " + roman2arabic("MMVIII")); trace("MDCLXVI in arabic is " + roman2arabic("MDCLXVI"));</lang> Output:
MCMXC in arabic is 1990 MMVIII in arabic is 2008 MDCLXVI in arabic is 1666

(arabic->roman 99)

</lang>
An alternate implementation:
<lang Clojure> (defn a2r
[a] (let [rv [1000 500 100 50 10 5 1] rm (zipmap rv "MDCLXVI") dv (->> rv (take-nth 2) next (#(interleave % %)))] (loop [a a rv rv dv dv r nil] (if (<= a 0) r (let [v (first rv) d (or (first dv) 0) l (- v d)] (cond (= a v) (str r (rm v)) (= a l) (str r (rm d) (rm v)) (and (> a v) (> a l)) (recur (- a v) rv dv (str r (rm v))) (and (< a v) (< a l)) (recur a (rest rv) (rest dv) r) :else (recur (- a l) (rest rv) (rest dv) (str r (rm d) (rm v)))))))))

For fluff, the unicode overbar is recognized as a factor of 1000, as described in WP.
If you see boxes in the code below, those are supposed to be the Unicode combining overline (U+0305) and look like IVXLCDM.

Explanation: R1000's definition contains rows representing each of 10 different digits in the 100s, 10s and 1s column (the first entry in each row is blank -- each entry is preceded by a space). R1000 itself represents the first 1000 roman numerals (the cartesian product of these three rows of roman numeral "digits" which is constructed so that they are in numeric order. And the first entry -- zero -- is just blank). To convert a number to its roman numeral representation, we will separate the number into the integer part after dividing by 1000 (that's the number of 'M's we need) and the remainder after dividing by 1000 (which will be an index into R1000).
For example:<lang j> rfd 1234 MCCXXXIV
rfd 567
DLXVII
rfd 89
LXXXIX</lang>

Mercury
The non-ceremonial work in this program starts at the function to_roman/1
. Unusually for Mercury the function is semi-deterministic. This is because some of the helper functions it calls are also semi-deterministic and the determinism subsystem propagates the status upward. (There are ways to stop it from doing this, but it would distract from the actual Roman numeral conversion process so the semi-determinism has been left in.)
to_roman/1
is just a string of chained function calls. The number is passed in as a string (and the main/2
predicate ensures that it is *only* digits!) is converted into a list of characters. This list is then reversed and the Roman numeral version is built from it. This resulting character list is then converted back into a string and returned.
build_roman/1
takes the lead character off the list (reversed numerals) and then recursively calls itself. It uses the promote/2
predicate to multiply the ensuing Roman numerals (if any) by an order of magnitude and converts the single remaining digit to the appropriate list of Roman numerals. To clarify, if it's passed the number "123" (encoded by this point as ['3', '2', '1']) the following transpires:
- The '3' is removed and
build_roman/1
is now called with ['2', '1'].- The '2' is removed and the function is recursively called with ['1'].
- The '1' is removed and the function is recursively called with [] (the empty list)..
- The function returns [].
- The [] has its (non-existent) digits promoted and then gets ['I'] appended (1 converts to ['I'] via
digit_to_roman/1
).
- The '1' is removed and the function is recursively called with [] (the empty list)..
- The ['I'] has its (single) digit promoted and is converted to ['X'] and then gets ['I','I'] appended from the 2's conversion. The resulting list is now ['X','I','I'] (or 12).
- The '2' is removed and the function is recursively called with ['1'].
- The ['X','I','I'] has all of its digits promoted, yielding ['C','X','X'] before getting ['I','I','I'] appended. The resulting list is now ['C','X','X','I','I','I'] which is converted into the string "CXXIII" back up in
to_roman/1
.
It is possible for this to be implemented differently even keeping the same algorithm. For example the map
module from the standard library could be used for looking up conversions and promotions instead of having digit_to_roman/1
and promote
. This would require, however, either passing around the conversion tables constantly (bulking up the parameter lists of all functions and predicates) or creating said conversion tables each time at point of use (slowing down the implementation greatly).
Now the semi-determinism of the functions involved is a little bit of a problem. In the main/2
predicate you can see one means of dealing with it. main/2
*must* be deterministic (or cc_multi, but this is equivalent for this discussion). There can be *no* failure in a called function or predicate … unless that failure is explicitly handled somehow. In this implementation the failure is handled in the foldl/4
's provided higher-order predicate lambda. The call to to_roman/1
is called within a conditional and both the success (true) and failure (false) branches are handled. This makes the passed-in predicate lambda deterministic, even though the implementation functions and predicates are semi-deterministic.
But why are they semi-deterministic? Well, this has to do with the type system. It doesn't permit sub-typing, so when the type of a predicate is, say pred(char, char)
(as is the case for promote/2
), the underlying implementation *must* handle *all* values that a type char
could possibly hold. It is trivial to see that our code does not. This means that, in theory, it is possible that promote/2
(or digit_to_roman/1
) could be passed a value which cannot be processed, thus triggering a false result, and thus being semi-deterministic.

</lang>
This implementation calculates the value of the thousands, then the hundreds, then the tens, then the ones. In each case it uses the digit/4
function and some tricks with unification to build the appropriate list of characters for the digit and multiplier being targeted.
Its output is identical to that of the previous version.

TeX has its own way to convert a number into roman numeral, but it produces lowercase letters; the following macro (and usage example), produce uppercase roman numeral.

R
R has a built-in function, as.roman

(see previous link), and utils:::.roman2numeric
, for conversion back to Arabic decimals.
<lang R>as.roman(1666) # MDCLXVI</lang>
Since the object as.roman
creates is just an integer vector with a class, you can do arithmetic with Roman numerals:
<lang R>as.roman(1666) + 334 # MM</lang>

result = "" do i = 1 to words(romans)
do while number >= word(arabic,i) result = result || word(romans,i) number = number - word(arabic,i) end
end return result</lang>
version 2
This version of a REXX program allows almost any non-negative (whole) decimal number.
Most people think that the Romans had no word for "zero". The Roman numeral system has no need for a
zero placeholder, so there was no name for it (just as we have no name for a "¶" in the middle of our numbers ---
as we don't have that possibility). However, the Romans did have a name for zero (or nothing).
In fact the Romans had several names for zero (see the REXX code), as does modern English. In American English, many words can be used:
zero, nothing, naught, bupkis, zilch, goose-egg, nebbish, squat, nil, crapola, what-Patty-shot-at, nineteen (only in cribbage), love (in tennis), etc.
Also, this REXX version supports large numbers (with parentheses and deep parentheses).
(This code was ripped out of my general routine that also supported versions for Attic, ancient Roman, and modern Roman numerals.)
The code is bulkier than most at it deals with any non-negative decimal number, and more boilerplate code is(was) present to handle the above versions.

Ruby
Roman numeral generation was used as an example for demonstrating Test Driven Development in Ruby. The solution came to be: <lang ruby>Symbols = { 1=>'I', 5=>'V', 10=>'X', 50=>'L', 100=>'C', 500=>'D', 1000=>'M' } Subtractors = [ [1000, 100], [500, 100], [100, 10], [50, 10], [10, 1], [5, 1], [1, 0] ]
def roman(num)
return Symbols[num] if Symbols.has_key?(num) Subtractors.each do |cutPoint, subtractor| return roman(cutPoint) + roman(num - cutPoint) if num > cutPoint return roman(subtractor) + roman(num + subtractor) if num >= cutPoint - subtractor and num < cutPoint end
end
[1990, 2008, 1666].each do |i|
puts "%4d => %s" % [i, roman(i)]
end</lang>
- Output:
1990 => MCMXC 2008 => MMVIII 1666 => MDCLXVI
Another shorter version if we don't consider calculating the substractors:
<lang ruby> Symbols = [ [1000, 'M'], [900, 'CM'], [500, 'D'], [400, 'CD'], [100, 'C'], [90, 'XC'], [50, 'L'], [40, 'XL'], [10, 'X'], [9, 'IX'], [5, 'V'], [4, 'IV'], [1, 'I'] ]
def arabic_to_roman(arabic)
return if arabic.zero? Symbols.each { |arabic_rep, roman_rep| return roman_rep + arabic_to_roman(arabic - arabic_rep) if arabic >= arabic_rep }
end </lang>

- ROMAN(N) - Convert integer N to Roman numeral form.
- N must be positive and less than 4000.
- An asterisk appears in the result if N >= 4000.
- The function fails if N is not an integer.
DEFINE('ROMAN(N)UNITS') :(ROMAN_END)
- Get rightmost digit to UNITS and remove it from N.
- Return null result if argument is null.
ROMAN N RPOS(1) LEN(1) . UNITS = :F(RETURN)
- Search for digit, replace with its Roman form.
- Return failing if not a digit.
'0,1I,2II,3III,4IV,5V,6VI,7VII,8VIII,9IX,' UNITS + BREAK(',') . UNITS :F(FRETURN)
- Convert rest of N and multiply by 10. Propagate a

The algorithm is to implement the subtractive principle by string substitution only after constucting the numeral from successive remainders. The order among the substitutions matters. For example, occurrences of DCCCC must be replaced by CM before any occurrences of CCCC are replaced by CD. The substitution operator (%=) is helpful here. <lang Ursala>#import nat
