For this Kata, you will be creating a library which will allow the addition and subtraction of Roman numerals. Once your solution is complete, please provide your solution as a Git repository (publicly available via Github or Bitbucket). Please include within your repository, all source and test code.
Run all tests:
make test
Run tests and show detailed output:
make testverbose
Build static library:
make libromanmath.a

- Roman numerals consist of the following letters: I, V, X, L, C, D, and M which mean one, five, ten, fifty, hundred, five hundred and one thousand respectively.
- As we are in Rome there are no such things as decimals or integers, we need to do this with the strings. An example would be "XIV" + "LX" = "LXXIV."
- Numerals can be concatenated to form a larger numeral ("XX" + "II" = "XXII").
- If a lesser numeral is put before a bigger it means subtraction of the lesser from the bigger ("IV" means four, "CM" means ninehundred).
- If the numeral is I, X or C you can't have more than three ("II" + "II" = "IV" not “IIII”).
- If the numeral is V, L or D you can't have more than one ("D" + "D" = "M" not “DD”).
As a Roman bookkeeper I want to be able to add two numbers together So that I can do my work faster with fewer mathematical errors.
