I agree and even found this:
http://twt.mpei.ac.ru/MAS/Worksheets/Rim_Arab_Number.mcd
which is a arabic -> roman numeral calculator.

However I'm learning to program, and in Ruby and this is an assignment from
the book.  So, yes, ultimately the only value is in helping me to think
these types of problems through.  I'm afraid to look at rubyquiz as it might
be cheating.  I'd like to see first how creative I can get before
comparing.  Regardless thank you for making me aware of it.
