ObjectScript Roman Numeral Converter

Overview

This is an ObjectScript function to convert numbers to roman numerals. It also takes a dynamic array of numbers and turns them into roman numerals.

Features

Takes in a number, or dynamic array of numbers, and turns them into roman numerals. Works up to 3,999. If you find a number that isn’t accurate, please report it in the issues tab.

There is only one parameter:

• val (Required String): The number or dynamic array to be converted.

Example Usage

USER> write ##class(RomanNumerals.RomanNumerals).Translate("12")
XII

USER> set x = ["12","13"]
USER> write ##class(RomanNumerals.RomanNumerals).Translate(x)
11@%Library.DynamicArray

Errors will be returned. If you don’t use a number inside of a string, it won’t respond with anything.

Future Plans

Backwards translation support to convert roman numerals to a number. Tweaking of conversion logic to support any roman numeral issues, especially over 3,999.
