Commands
::math::roman::toromani
Convert an integer to roman numerals. The result is always in upper case. The value zero is
converted to an empty string.
::math::roman::tointegerr
Convert a roman numeral into an integer.
::math::roman::sortlist
Sort a list of roman numerals from smallest to largest.
::math::roman::exprargs
Evaluate an expression where the operands are all roman numerals.
Of these commands both toroman and tointeger are exported for easier use. The other two are not, as they
could interfer or be confused with existing Tcl commands.

tcllib 1.1 math::roman(3tcl)
Description
::math::roman is a pure-Tcl library for converting between integers and roman numerals. It also provides
utility functions for sorting and performing arithmetic on roman numerals.
This code was originally harvested from the Tcler's wiki at http://wiki.tcl.tk/1823 and as such is free
for any use for any purpose. Many thanks to the ingeneous folk who devised these clever routines and
generously contributed them to the Tcl community.
While written and tested under Tcl 8.3, I expect this library will work under all 8.x versions of Tcl.
