Problem #12 Integer to Roman
Description
Roman numerals are represented by seven different symbols: I
, V
, X
,
L
, C
, D
and M
.
Symbol Value
I 1
V 5
X 10
L 50
C 100
D 500
M 1000
For example, 2
is written as II
in Roman numeral, just two one’s added
together. 12
is written as XII
, which is simply X
+ II
. The number
27
is written as XXVII
, which is XX
+ V
+ II
.
Roman numerals are usually written largest to smallest from left to right.
However, the numeral for four is not IIII
. Instead, the number four is
written as IV
. Because the one is before the five we subtract it making
four. The same principle applies to the number nine, which is written as
IX
. There are six instances where subtraction is used:
I
can be placed before V
(5
) and X
(10
) to make 4
and 9
.
X
can be placed before L
(50
) and C
(100
) to make 40
and 90
.
C
can be placed before D
(500
) and M
(1000
) to make 400
and 900
.
Given an integer, convert it to a roman numeral.
Example 1:
Input: num = 3
Output: "III"
Explanation: 3 is represented as 3 ones.
Example 2:
Input: num = 58
Output: "LVIII"
Explanation: L = 50, V = 5, III = 3.
Example 3:
Input: num = 1994
Output: "MCMXCIV"
Explanation: M = 1000, CM = 900, XC = 90 and IV = 4.
Constraints:
1 $\leqslant$ num $\leqslant$ 3999
