This converts integers (e.g. 1,100) to Words (One Thousand One Hundred) using the English language. The text for some numbers changes slightly, according to the host countries english dialect. Speakers of English-UK often add the word "and" between the word 100 and any subsequent digits. Speakers of English-USA do not normally include any "and" in their numbers. This function should work for any valid Integer number between -999,999,999 and +999,999,999. The limit is imposed by variations in how English dialects interpret words like "billion" and trillion.

Roman Numerals are a system for using letters to represent numbers. It was commonly used in the ancient Roman Empire. In ancient texts, it was possible for one "number" to be represented by many "Roman Numeral" variants. The system has seen a revival in modern times, whilst the old variations are still valid, modern texts are encouraged to follow additional rules which ensure consistent Roman Numeral representations for any number. Roman numeraks can be written in either upper-case or lower-case. The Roman Numeral system has several limitations

• There is no symbol for the number 0 (zero). The best option was "leave it blank"
• Roman Numerals do not have natie support for negative numbers
• Roman Numerals do not have native support for fractions or decimals
• Although Roman Numeral variations can handle larger integer values, things get very confusing when you exceed the number 3444. (You have to choose between two sets of special symbols and the special symbols are not present on a normal keyboard!
