Roman - A Little Coding Challenge

[jcarmody]

I got almost this far and gave up until tonight.  Now I give up!

Hello,

It's a really nice code jcarmody,

Can you please post a VI snippet of this code, or join the .vi on a post ?

Thanks,

I thought I make two standard tools in the style of the VIs in the String/Number Conversion Palette.

• Number to Roman String
• Roman String to Number

I Implemented very crude error handling:

"Number to Roman String" returns empty string for illegal inputs.

"Roman String to Number" returns -1 for illegal inputs.

Number is I32 representation only (the algorithm needs to be modified if it should work with e.g. U32).

VIs are in LabVIEW 2011. Enjoy and modify as needed.
