The Alpha-Arabic Logic ✔️✔️
This logic is a modified version of how Roman Numerals are calculated.
The Rule:
1. Iterate through the string from left to right.
2. Compare the value of the current character to the value of the character
following it.
3. Operation:
o If current $\ge$ next $\rightarrow$ Add the current value.
o If current $<$ next $\rightarrow$ Subtract the current value.
4. The Last Character: Always Add the value of the final character, as there
is nothing following it to trigger a subtraction.
Examples with A=1, B=13, C=110:
CBA: $110 + 13 + 1 = 124$
ABC: $-1 - 13 + 110 = 96$
BAC: $-13 - 1 + 110 = 96$
ACA: $-1 + 110 + 1 = 110$
