My function for the roman numeral converter doesn't seem to work, like when I put in MCMVI (1906) it came out as 73. I'm not looking for a new program or anything, I just need the corrections for this to work.

Any modifications appreciated!

#include

using namespace std;

class romanNumber

{

public:

void setRoman(string);

int romanToInteger();

void printNumber();

void printRoman();

private:

string romanNum;

int decimal = 0;

};

int main()

{

string numerals;

cout << "Enter Roman Numerals ONLY: ";

cin >> numerals;

romanNumber Rom;

Rom.romanToInteger();

cin.get();cin.get();

return 0;

}

int romanNumber::romanToInteger() //error function

{

int cur_int = 0;

int next_int = 0;

int total = 0;

char numerals[7] = {'M','D','C','L','X','V','I'};

int length[7] = {'1000','500','100','50','10','5','1'};

total = numerals[length[] - 1]; //error

for (int i = length[] - 1; i > 0; i--) //error

{

cur_int = numerals[i];

next_int = numerals[i - 1];

if(cur_int <= next_int)

{

decimal += next_int;

}

else

{

decimal -= next_int;

}

}

cout << "Equivalent decimal is: " << total << endl;

return decimal;

}
