Is there any direct way to add roman numerials?

For example: I + I = II
III + I = IV

Re: Adding Roman Numericals using Java programming
In a general sense, No. What you describe is not possible, because the computer does not "think" in Roman Numerals. As a result, some conversion would have to be done to "teach" it to use Roman Numerals in basic math equations. Even if you found a third-party library that had already done the work for you, some conversion would exist in the library.
