Number: 1: The number to be converted to Roman numerals. If the parameter passed cannot be interpreted as a numerical value, no output is generated. Example 69105: Number: optional: Message: 2: Message to display for numbers that are too big to be displayed in Roman numerals. (The largest number supported is 4999999.) Default N/A Example Too ...
Format is a function in Common Lisp that can produce formatted text using a format string similar to the print format string.It provides more functionality than print, allowing the user to output numbers in various formats (including, for instance: hex, binary, octal, roman numerals, and English), apply certain format specifiers only under certain conditions, iterate over data structures ...
The Roman numerals, in particular, are directly derived from the Etruscan number symbols: 𐌠 , 𐌡 , 𐌢 , 𐌣 , and 𐌟 for 1, 5, 10, 50, and 100 (they had more symbols for larger numbers, but it is unknown which symbol represents which number). As in the basic Roman system, the Etruscans wrote the symbols that added to the desired ...
Find the Roman numerals for the integer part of the number. If the number is not an integer: Add half of the smallest unit (1/1728) to simulate rounding instead of truncation. Ensure this new result is between 1/1728 and 1727/1728. (actually 1.1/1728 and 1727.1/1728 due to floating point rounding issues)
Another common way of expressing the base is writing it as a decimal subscript after the number that is being represented (this notation is used in this article). 1111011 2 implies that the number 1111011 is a base-2 number, equal to 123 10 (a decimal notation representation), 173 8 and 7B 16 (hexadecimal).

In this section, the numerals are in decimal. For example, "5" means five, and "10" means ten. Chinese Abacus or suanpan. A decimal system with two and five as a sub-bases is called biquinary and is found in Wolof and Khmer. Roman numerals are an early biquinary system. The numbers 1, 5, 10, and 50 are written as I, V, X, and L respectively.
In Roman numerals, for example, X means ten and L means fifty, so LXXX means eighty (50 + 10 + 10 + 10). Although signs may be written in a conventional order the value of each sign does not depend on its place in the sequence, and changing the order does not affect the total value of the sequence in an additive system.
