Workflow & Usage

  1. Enter numbers or Roman numerals in the left textarea.
  2. Use the Number / Roman toggle inside the input area to switch direction.
  3. Optional controls:
    • Batch by newline — convert one value per line
    • Trim lines — ignore extra whitespace in batch mode
  4. View results instantly on the right and copy with one click.

Invalid or non-canonical inputs are reported per line so the rest of the batch continues.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Roman numerals are case-insensitive.
  • Avoid non-standard forms like IIII or IC.
  • Use batch mode for lists of years or identifiers.
  • Values outside the supported range will return an error.

How It Works

  • Numbers are converted using a descending Roman value table
  • Roman numerals are parsed left-to-right
  • Subtractive pairs (IV, IX, XL, etc.) are handled correctly
  • Decoded values are validated via round-trip conversion
  • Each line is processed independently
