Module:Roman

--[[ This module converts Arabic numerals into Roman numerals. It currently works for any non-negative integer below 5 billions (up to 4 999 999 999).

Zero is represented as "N" (from Classical Latin adverbs "nec" or "non"), like in standard CLDR data.

For numbers starting at 4 thousands, this version no longer generates any HTML+CSS, but only plain-text: standard Unicode combining diacritics are used for overlines (U+0305 for the first level, then U+0304 for the second level, but both are treated equivalently when parsing Roman numbers).

For numbers starting at 4 billions, it still uses 4 letters M with double overlines because triple overlines are not supported in plain-text (this is acceptable, just like "MMMM" is also acceptable for representing 4000 but this version chooses the shorter "IV" with a single overline).

The Roman number parser will accept all valid notations (except apostrophic/Claudian/lunate notations using reversed C), more than what it generates, and will correctly convert them to Arabic numbers.

Please do not modify this code without applying the changes first at Module:Roman/sandbox and testing at Module:Roman/sandbox/testcases and Module talk:Roman/sandbox/testcases.

--[==[ isRoman

Tests if the trimmed input is a valid Roman numeral. Returns true if so, false if not. For the purposes of this function, the empty string (after trimming whitespaces) is not a Roman numeral.

Parameters s: string to test if it is a valid Roman numeral

Error Handling: If the input is not a valid Roman numeral this function returns false. ]==]-- function p.isRoman(s) return type(s) == 'string' and convertRomanToArabic(mw.text.trim(s)) ~= nil end

--[==[ toArabic

This function converts a Roman numeral into an Arabic numeral. It works for values between 0 and 4999999999. 'N' is converted to 0 and the empty string is converted to nil.

Parameters roman: string containing value to convert into an Arabic numeral

--[==[ _Numeral

This function returns a string containing the input value formatted as a Roman numeral. It works for values between 0 and 4999999999.

Parameters value: integer or string containing value to convert into a Roman numeral

Error Handling: If the input does not look like it contains a number or the number is outside of the supported range an error message is returned. ]==]-- function p._Numeral(value) if value == nil then return outputError('missing value') end if type(value) == 'string' then value = tonumber(value) elseif type(value) ~= 'number' then return outputError('unsupported value') end return convertArabicToRoman(value) end

--[==[ Numeral

This function for MediaWiki converts an Arabic numeral into a Roman numeral. It works for values between 0 and 4999999999 (includes the whole range of unsigned 32-bit integers). Arabic numeral zero is output as 'N' (for Latin negation adverbs "nec" or "non").

Usage: - uses the caller's parameters

Parameters 1: Value to convert into a Roman numeral. Must be at least 0 and less than 5,000,000.

Error Handling: If the input does not look like it contains a number or the number is outside of the supported range an error message is returned. ]==]-- function p.Numeral(frame) -- if no argument provided than check parent template/module args local args = frame.args if args[1] == nil then args = frame:getParent.args end return p._Numeral(args[1]) end
