Roman Numeral Conversion Utilities
Project description
This is a utility module for converting from and to Roman numerals. It supports numbers upto 3,999,999, using the vinculum to denote multiplication by 1000. (i.e.: X is 10 while X̅ is 10000.) The only letter that this does not apply to is I, as M already existed for 1000.
Special credit goes to Paul M. Winkler, for the original basis for a large chunk of the core converter functions as written in the Python Cookbook.
Quick Start
Install the package:
pip3 install romanicize
Once installed, a command line utility is available to your shell:
$ romanicize 2021 MMXXI $ romanicize MMXIX 2019
With a Python script, convert from an integer to a Roman numeral:
from romanicize import to_numeral print(to_numeral(2021)) # Outputs: MMXXI
Within a Python script, convert from a Roman numeral to an integer:
from romanicize import to_int print(to_int('MV̅DLXXVIII')) # Outputs: 4578
