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

It's sad when not even Boobspit (ho should be used to looking at roman
numerals in the copyright of movies) knows what number MCCM
represents.



Invalid representation?

Nope, the answer is 2000. Thanks for playing!

Good lord. I though everyone would know that 2000 is MM.

You *finally* figured out that it can be spelled both ways.

Now tell us what MCCM is?
