Roman numerals are represented by seven different symbols: I, V, X, L, C, D and M.

Symbol       Value
I             1
V             5
X             10
L             50
C             100
D             500
M             1000```

For example, two is written as `II` in Roman numeral, just two one's added together. Twelve is written as, `XII`, which is simply `X` + `II`. The number twenty seven is written as `XXVII`, which is `XX` + `V` + `II`.

Roman numerals are usually written largest to smallest from left to right. However, the numeral for four is not `IIII`. Instead, the number four is written as `IV`. Because the one is before the five we subtract it making four. The same principle applies to the number nine, which is written as `IX`. There are six instances where subtraction is used:

*   `I` can be placed before `V` (5) and `X` (10) to make 4 and 9. 
*   `X` can be placed before `L` (50) and `C` (100) to make 40 and 90. 
*   `C` can be placed before `D` (500) and `M` (1000) to make 400 and 900.

Given an integer, convert it to a roman numeral. Input is guaranteed to be within the range from 1 to 3999.

**Example 1:**

Input: 3 Output: "III"```

Example 2:

Input: 4
Output: "IV"```

**Example 3:**

Input: 9 Output: "IX"```

Example 4:

Input: 58
Output: "LVIII"
Explanation: L = 50, V = 5, III = 3.

Example 5:

Input: 1994
Output: "MCMXCIV"
Explanation: M = 1000, CM = 900, XC = 90 and IV = 4.```


#### Solution

Language: **Java**

```java
class Solution {
    public String intToRoman(int num) {
        String M[] = {"", "M", "MM", "MMM"};
        String C[] = {"", "C", "CC", "CCC", "CD", "D", "DC", "DCC", "DCCC", "CM"};
        String X[] = {"", "X", "XX", "XXX", "XL", "L", "LX", "LXX", "LXXX", "XC"};
        String I[] = {"", "I", "II", "III", "IV", "V", "VI", "VII", "VIII", "IX"};
        return M[num/1000] + C[(num%1000)/100] + X[(num%100)/10] + I[num%10];
    }
}
