Hell, I had to teach them at the house. As a matter of fact, they force us to use them at work.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

After having to deal with Roman Numerals in Latin class I think I'd kill whoever suggested that I would have to do math calculations with them.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

The Hindu-Arabic or Indo-Arabic numerals were invented by mathematicians in India. Perso-Arabic mathematicians called them "Hindu numerals" (where "Hindu" meant Indian). Later they came to be called "Arabic numerals" in Europe, because they were introduced to the West by Arab merchants.
