Dazzling. Delightful. Intricate. That is, by far, the most beautiful of the many Roman to Decimal
solutions presented in this node IMHO. Paraphrasing
Abigail:
Your golf solution is like exploring a large medieval castle, surrounded
by a dark, mysterious forest, with something new and unexpected around
each corner. There are dragons to be conquered, maidens to be rescued,
and holy grails to be quested for. Lots of fun.
By comparison, my golf solutions look like a Louis-XVI castle and garden to me.
Straight, symmetric, and bright. There are wigs to be powdered,
minuets to be danced, all quite boring.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
