Number converter

-----------------------------------

i am making a number converter... using roman numeral and arabic numbers. i have the arabic to RN part of it done, but the for statement im using for the RN to arabic keeps going out of the array substring. (using i + 1 to check for stuff like IV). is there any way to make a default if or something to tell the program to end the loop if i + 1 is undeclared?

you can add a flag character at the end of the string... something like space for example...

text := text + " "


then in your forloop when checking for post characters, if its is your flag character (in this case space) then you know its the end of the string
