could someone help me to understand this python code? I don't understand what does s[i:i+2]
, roman[s[i:i+2]]
and roman[s[i[i]]
do.
class Solution():
def romanToInt(self, s):
roman = {'I':1,'V':5,'X':10,'L':50,'C':100,'D':500,'M':1000,'IV':4,'IX':9,'XL':40,'XC':90,'CD':400,'CM':900}
i = 0
num = 0
while i < len(s):
if i + 1 < len(s) and s[i:i+2] in roman:
num += roman[s[i:i+2]]
i += 2
else:
num += roman[s[i]]
i += 1
return num
s = input('Enter a roman numeral: ').upper()
object = Solution()
print(object.romanToInt(s))
