      Definition for function ARABIC is incorrect and incomplete, the rules for the subtractive principle are missing.

      The current definition
      "Any Roman symbol to the left of a larger symbol (directly or indirectly) reduces the final value by the symbol amount, otherwise, it increases the final amount by the symbol's amount."
      is wrong.
