Default MCCM = 1190 ???

It's not a valid number, as I said before.

No Roman number subtracts more than one digit. Hence you cannot have
'CC' before 'M'.

Geez, Nav. I did it without a cheat and I came up with 2000.

MCCM

M = 1000
C = 100
CM= 900

It has to be 2000. You can't do MCC, because C followed my a M.

I think you are wrong. Prove your algorithm...

That's because their algorithm is stupid. No magister would have allowed
his puella to get away with that!
