roman-literals

roman-literals provides an easy way to write integer literals using Roman numerals.

Features

  • Supports all integers from I to MMMCMXCIX (1 to 3999)
  • Type inference with the roman! macro
  • Zero cost!

Usage

  • Type aliases like iXXXII are provided to replace primitive types like i32.

  • Using the roman! macro, the type of the literal is automatically inferred, with iXXXII being the default. The macro also supports negative numbers; see roman! for more details.

  • Constants are also provided, such as III_uXXXII. These constants are all suffixed with their type. See the consts module for more details.

Examples

use roman_literals::*; // roman! macro and type aliases

let forty_two: uXXXII = roman!(XLII);
assert_eq!(forty_two, 42);

let negative_3999: iXVI = roman!(-MMMCMXCIX);
assert_eq!(negative_3999, -3999);

use roman_literals::consts::*; // to get the constants

let negative_300 = -CCC_iLXIV; // i64
assert_eq!(negative_300, -300);
