2. Make sure you have Ruby installed by running ruby -v

Command Line Usage

Run ./bin/convert-roman passing in the roman numeral you would like to convert as an argument, like so:

You can also add bin to your path with export PATH=$(pwd)/bin:$PATH to make the tool available anywhere on your OS.

API Usage

To start your server, run rackup.

Once the server is running, you can curl localhost:9292 (or whichever port your server is using), or access in the browser. Specify the /convert route and pass in the numeral you want converted, like so: curl localhost:9292/convert?roman=XVIII

The server will then return the converted numeral in a JSON response.
