Mathematical Principles & Theorems
Roman numeral notation represents integers using additive and subtractive Latin glyph combinations: Primary symbols I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), M (1000). Subtractive pairs: IV (4), IX (9), XL (40), XC (90), CD (400), CM (900). For large values \(\ge 4000\), Vinculum horizontal bar notation multiplies glyph values by 1,000 (\(\overline{\text{V}} = 5,000, \overline{\text{X}} = 10,000, \overline{\text{M}} = 1,000,000\)), supporting numbers up to 3,999,999.
Operating Instructions
- Enter a decimal integer or Roman numeral string in the converter inputs.
- Click Convert to perform bidirectional translation with strict syntax validation.
- Perform direct Roman arithmetic operations (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication).
- Review the decomposition breakdown table showing subtractive and additive token values.
