Explicitly exclude output as a Roman numeral
  • Given a single character, which is a valid Roman numeral, output its value.
  • ## Values
  • There are 7 valid single character Roman numerals, with the following values:
  • Character | Value
  • --------- | ----:
  • I | 1
  • V | 5
  • X | 10
  • L | 50
  • C | 100
  • D | 500
  • M | 1000
  • ## Input
  • - A single character, which will always be one of `IVXLCDM`.
  • ## Output
  • - The corresponding value.
  • ## Test cases
  • As there are only 7 valid inputs, the list of test cases is exhaustive.
  • Test cases are in the format `"input" : output`.
  • ```text
  • "I" : 1
  • "V" : 5
  • "X" : 10
  • "L" : 50
  • "C" : 100
  • "D" : 500
  • "M" : 1000
  • ```
  • ## Scoring
  • This is a [code golf challenge]. Your score is the number of bytes in your code.
  • > Explanations are optional, but I'm more likely to upvote answers that have one.
