Roman_Numerals

[apeshit]

Convert Roman numerals to Arabic form

How do i find a element in a array?
print out the index?

So far....

const char*unit[9] = {"I","II","III","IV","V","VI","VII","VIII","IX"};
const char* tens[9] = {"X", "XX", "XXX", "XL", "L", "LX", "LXX", "LXXX", "XC"};
const char* hundreds[9] = {"C", "CC", "CCC", "CD", "D", "DC", "DCC", "DCCC", "CM"};
const char* thousands[3] = {"M", "MM", "MMM"};

string str;

cout << "Enter the Roman Numeral in Capital letters (e.g. CCXIX) : ";
cin>> str;

Hi there,

you would do, for example:

std::cout << unit[2];  //outputs III

The Input is The Roman_Numeral(eg...IX) the output should be 9. I also need to do loop so when the IX is not found in the array(units) it should move on to the next array(tens) and so on..
