Roman Numeral Rules

  • Symbols are added from left to right (XVI = 10+5+1 = 16)
  • A smaller symbol before a larger one means subtraction (IV = 5-1 = 4)
  • Only I, X, C can be subtracted (never V, L, D)
  • I can only be subtracted from V and X
  • X can only be subtracted from L and C
  • C can only be subtracted from D and M
  • Maximum representable value is 3999 (MMMCMXCIX)
  • Zero has no Roman numeral representation
