/**
 * A utility class to convert integers into Roman numerals.
 *
 * <p>Roman numerals follow these rules:
 * <ul>
 *   <li>I = 1</li>
 *   <li>IV = 4</li>
 *   <li>V = 5</li>
 *   <li>IX = 9</li>
 *   <li>X = 10</li>
 *   <li>XL = 40</li>
 *   <li>L = 50</li>
 *   <li>XC = 90</li>
 *   <li>C = 100</li>
 *   <li>D = 500</li>
 *   <li>M = 1000</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>Conversion is based on repeatedly subtracting the largest possible Roman numeral value
 * from the input number until it reaches zero. For example, 1994 is converted as:
 * <pre>
 *   1994 -> MCMXCIV (1000 + 900 + 90 + 4)
 * </pre>
