Well I can't believe it, but I spent ages teaching people how to write roman numerals and they still forget 1, 1000, 51, 6 and 500.

IM LIVID! πŸ˜‰πŸ€£

Seriously though, fun little project, I enjoyed the writeup on it too! ❀

Awesome, didn't know that one! So glad you liked it! :) I'm reading some Terry Pratchet currently and stumbled upon differen roman numbers in character's names and thought "why not explain how they work and make a tutorial about that"
