MMXXVI: MM = 2000, XX = 20 and VI = 6. Years are converted one place at a time, so 1999 is MCMXCIX (1000 + 900 + 90 + 9) rather than MIM, and 2000 is simply MM. The same rule gives MDCCLXXVI for 1776, the year inscribed on the tablet held by the Statue of Liberty.

In standard form the largest number is 3999, written MMMCMXCIX, because there is no letter for 5000 and a letter repeats at most three times. Excel's ROMAN function returns #VALUE! above 3999 for the same reason. Larger numbers used an overline (vinculum) that multiplies by 1000: V̅ is 5000 and I̅V̅ is 4000, which takes this converter up to 3,999,999.

IV is the standard form; IIII is the additive form, and both mean 4. Standard form uses only six subtractive pairs: IV, IX, XL, XC, CD and CM. Many clock faces still show IIII for four o'clock while using IX for nine, a practice that goes back to clocks such as the late 14th-century Wells Cathedral clock. The converter reads IIII as 4 and gives IV as the standard spelling.

Standard form lets a letter be subtracted only from the next two larger letters: I from V and X, X from L and C, and C from D and M. So 99 is 90 + 9 = XC + IX = XCIX, and 49 is XLIX rather than IL. Excel's ROMAN function breaks the rule only on request: its form 4 writes 499 as ID, while the default form gives CDXCIX.

No. The Roman system had no symbol for zero, so the converter starts at 1. Medieval scholars wrote the Latin word nulla ("none") instead: Dionysius Exiguus used it in 525, and around 725 Bede or a colleague abbreviated it to the letter N.

准确性取决于输入值和方法的假设。十进制运算使用50位有效数字，但估算、数值方法和源数据的精度可能较低；显示时的舍入并不能消除这些限制。 已按独立来源核验的计算示例：8。 例如，“2421”根据Wikipedia — Roman numerals, standard-form examples (2421 = MMCDXXI); Python greedy conversion (forkA/verify_roman.py)进行核验。
