The following function takes a decimal number and returns the equivalent in roman numerals. The comments to the right of the ⍝ symbol are for edification but are not necessary to use this function.
      ⎕vr 'roman' ⍝ System function to list the contents of a function
    ∇ result ← roman value ⍝ result is the output of the function; value is the number supplied
[1]   result ← '' ⍝ set result to null to prevent VALUE ERROR
[2]   M: →(value<1000)/CM ⍝ if the value is less than 1000, go to label CM
[3]   result ← result,'m' ⍝ for each 1000, tack an 'm' onto result and reduce value by 1000
[4]   value ←value-1000
[5]   →M ⍝ go back to label M
[6]   CM: →(value<900)/D ⍝ if the value is less than 900, go to label D
[7]   result ← result,'cm' ⍝ tack a 'cm' on result and reduce value by 900
[8]   value ←value-900
[9]   D: →(value<500)/CD ⍝ if the value is less than 500, go to label CD
[10]  result ← result,'d'
[11]  value ←value-500
[12]  CD: →(value<400)/C ⍝ if the value is less than 400, go to label C
[13]  result ← result,'cd'
[14]  value ←value-500
[15]  C: →(value<100)/XC ⍝ if the value is less than 100, go to label XC
[16]  result ← result,'c'
[17]  value ←value-100
[18]  →C
[19]  XC: →(value<90)/L ⍝ if the value is less than 90, go to label L
[20]  result ← result,'xc'
[21]  value ←value-90
[22]  L: →(value<50)/XL ⍝ if the value is less than 50, go to label XL
[23]  result ← result,'l'
[24]  value ←value-50
[25]  XL: →(value<40)/X ⍝ if the value is less than 40, go to label X
[26]  result ← result,'xl'
[27]  value ←value-40
[28]  X: →(value<10)/IX ⍝ if the value is less than 10, go to label IX
[29]  result ← result,'x'
[30]  value ←value-10
[31]  →X
[32]  IX: →(value<9)/V ⍝ if the value is less than 9, go to label V
[33]  result ← result,'ix'
[34]  value ←value-9
[35]  V: →(value<5)/IV ⍝ if the value is less than 5, go to label IV
[36]  result ← result,'v'
[37]  value ←value-5
[38]  IV: →(value<4)/I ⍝ if the value is less than 4, go to label I
[39]  result ← result,'iv'
[40]  value ←value-4
[41]  I: →(value<1)/0 ⍝ if the value is less than 1, go to 0, which exits the function
[42]  result ← result,'i'
[43]  value ←value-1
[44]  →I
