    Two basic conventions are in common use for some Arabic numerals: display segment A is optional for digit 6 (/), segment F for 7 (/), and segment D for 9 (/). Although EF could also be used to represent digit 1, this seems to be rarely done if ever. CDEG is occasionally encountered on older calculators to represent 0.

  8. Character encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_encoding

    Character encoding is the process of assigning numbers to graphical characters, especially the written characters of human language, allowing them to be stored, transmitted, and transformed using digital computers. [1] The numerical values that make up a character encoding are known as "code points" and collectively comprise a "code space", a ...
