}
}
}
printf("Roman number is: ");
for(j = 0; j < i; j++)
printf("%c", romanval[j]);
return 0;
}

void predigit(char num1, char num2)
{
romanval[i++] = num1;
romanval[i++] = num2;
}

void postdigit(char c, int n)
{
int j;
for (j = 0; j < n; j++)
romanval[i++] = c;
}

Output:
$ cc pgm8.c
$ a.out
Enter the number: 500
Roman number is be: D
