ex_roman: A Roman Numeral Converter in Elixir
I’m excited to share another one of my open-source projects: ex_roman. It’s a small Elixir library for converting integers to and from Roman numerals.
The project was born as a fun exercise in Test-Driven Development (TDD) and a way to explore the power of pattern matching in Elixir. The core of the library is a set of functions that use pattern matching to handle the conversion logic, which makes the code concise and easy to understand.
ex_roman
is a great example of how to build a small, focused library in Elixir. It’s also a good starting point for anyone who wants to learn more about TDD or pattern matching.
The library is available on GitHub, and I welcome any contributions or feedback. If you’re looking for a fun little project to work on, or if you just need to convert some Roman numerals, I encourage you to check it out.
