+
+Converts an integer to its roman numeral representation.
+Accepts value between `1` and `3999` (both inclusive).
+
+- Create a lookup table containing 2-value arrays in the form of (roman value, integer).
+- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to loop over the values in `lookup` and repeatedly divide `num` by the value, using `String.prototype.repeat()` to add the roman numeral representation to the accumulator.
+
+```js
+const toRomanNumeral = num => {
+  const lookup = [
+    ['M', 1000],
+    ['CM', 900],
+    ['D', 500],
+    ['CD', 400],
+    ['C', 100],
+    ['XC', 90],
+    ['L', 50],
+    ['XL', 40],
+    ['X', 10],
+    ['IX', 9],
+    ['V', 5],
+    ['IV', 4],
+    ['I', 1],
+  ];
+  return lookup.reduce((acc, [k, v]) => {
+    acc += k.repeat(Math.floor(num / v));
+    num = num % v;
+    return acc;
+  }, '');
+};
+
+```
+
+```js
+toRomanNumeral(3); // 'III'
+toRomanNumeral(11); // 'XI'
+toRomanNumeral(1998); // 'MCMXCVIII'
+```
