How the Roman Numeral Converter works
Decimal-to-Roman conversion walks standard subtractive pairs (IV, IX, XL, XC, CD, CM) from 1 through 3999. Roman-to-decimal parsing reads symbols left to right, adding values and applying subtraction when a smaller symbol precedes a larger one. Invalid characters return a clear error instead of a wrong number.
