Roman numerals to integers

Question

I have a transfer with products that unfortunately has to get matched by product name. The biggest issue here is I might get duplicate products on account of roman numbers.

Answer 1

I refer from this blog. You could just reverse the roman numeral , then all the thing would be more easier compare to make the comparison.
public static int pairConversion(int dec, int lastNum, int lastDec) { if (lastNum > dec) return lastDec - dec; else return lastDec + dec; }

    public static int ConvertRomanNumtoInt(string strRomanValue)
    {
        var dec = 0;
        var lastNum = 0;
        foreach (var c in strRomanValue.Reverse())
        {
            switch (c)
            {
                case 'I':
                    dec = pairConversion(1, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 1;
                    break;
                case 'V':
                    dec=pairConversion(5,lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 5;
                    break;
                case 'X':
                    dec = pairConversion(10, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 10;
                    break;
                case 'L':
                    dec = pairConversion(50, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 50;
                    break;
                case 'C':
                    dec = pairConversion(100, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 100;
                    break;
                case 'D':
                    dec = pairConversion(500, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 500;
                    break;
                case 'M':
                    dec = pairConversion(1000, lastNum, dec);
                    lastNum = 1000;
                    break;
            }
        }
        return dec;

    }
