problem = f"The number ${x_copy}$ in roman numerals is: "

Getting 0 every time

The number $0$ in Roman Numerals is:

@autosaver Are you overriding the max_decimal kwarg with decimal_to_roman_numerals(max_decimal=0) or decimal_to_roman_numerals(0) ?

@lukew3 I edited the gen_func() associated with decimal_to_roman_numerals (in the site-packages folder where mathgenerator got pip installed) and was able to resolve the issue.

In the above snippet, I added a line (as you did in misc.py)

x_copy = x

Then in the above snippet, I changed the f-string in the problem statement to reflect the correct variable name.

These fixes corrected the issue, but I'm not sure how to reflect these in my fork to then pull request it as this file isn't in the repository but in the pip installation? I am new to open source contribution so please let me know if I have misread something somewhere or missed a file that's in the fork.

Actually I was calling it directly without variable

It seems its using :

from ...generator import Generator
import random
import math


def gen_func(maxDecimal=4000):
    x = random.randint(0, maxDecimal)
    roman_dict = {
        1: "I",
        5: "V",
        10: "X",
        50: "L",
        100: "C",
        500: "D",
        1000: "M"
    }
    div = 1
    while x >= div:
        div *= 10
    div /= 10
    solution = ""
    while x:
        last_value = int(x / div)
        if last_value <= 3:
            solution += (roman_dict[div] * last_value)
        elif last_value == 4:
            solution += (roman_dict[div] + roman_dict[div * 5])
        elif 5 <= last_value <= 8:
            solution += (roman_dict[div * 5] + (roman_dict[div] * (last_value - 5)))
        elif last_value == 9:
            solution += (roman_dict[div] + roman_dict[div * 10])
        x = math.floor(x % div)
        div /= 10

    problem = f"The number ${x}$ in Roman Numerals is: "
    return problem, f'${solution}$'


decimal_to_roman_numerals = Generator("Converts decimal to Roman Numerals", 85,
                                      gen_func,
                                      ["maxDecimal=4000"])
