Talk:Roman numerals/Encode
The Java example does not enforce the requirement that the parameter for the conversion function must be a positive integer. Enforcement of such a requirement should result in an error condition, such as an exception, rather than simply no output when a value less than 1 is passed to the function.--Waldorf 21:14, 31 March 2008 (MDT)

400
I'm pretty sure CD is 400. If you look at wp:Roman_numerals#Modern_Roman_numerals it shows it. --Mwn3d 21:20, 31 March 2008 (MDT)
Spec?
Roman numerals are by no means standardized. You should reference the particular brand of encoding you wish to support. --IanOsgood 08:53, 1 April 2008 (MDT)
- What are our choices? --Mwn3d 09:09, 1 April 2008 (MDT)
- Project Euler had a similar task, where they addressed possible rules in a FAQ. Wikipedia has also a section on special rules. I guess the safe way is the way all examples so far do it. But maybe specifying it isn't important (I don't know which similarities/dissimilarities between different languages this task should highlight). --Dirkt 15:38, 1 April 2008 (MDT)
Perl problem
The use of the works_with template is interacting badly with the semantic wiki markup, but I'm not sure how to unpick the mess so I'll just flag this up for now. –Donal Fellows 08:46, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've been wanting to poke the SMW folks in #semantic-mediawiki for thoughts (you can see other weird issues in Special:Properties, but I haven't had time. --Michael Mol 12:15, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
Parsing roman numerals
Is there a page for that? I couldn't find one...
- I'm not aware of one. It seems a perfectly appropriate task idea. Why don't you create it? (I'd suggest you create an account first) --Michael Mol 20:03, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you do create it I would suggest putting it at Roman numberals/Decode or something like that. Also check for task creation hints at Rosetta Code:Add a Task. --Mwn3d 20:27, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- I've done this (minus the typo): Roman numerals/Decode --Mikachu 20:48, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
- Heh...good catch. Anyway it looks good. I'll move this task to Roman numerals/Encode so it's consistent. --Mwn3d 21:11, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
