The final proposal for Unicode encoding of the script was submitted by two cuneiform scholars working with an experienced Unicode proposal writer in June 2004. [4] The base character inventory is derived from the list of Ur III signs compiled by the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative of UCLA based on the inventories of Miguel Civil, Rykle Borger (2003), and Robert Englund.
In this way, numbers up to 10 3·999+3 = 10 3000 (short scale) or 10 6·999 = 10 5994 (long scale) may be named. The choice of roots and the concatenation procedure is that of the standard dictionary numbers if n is 9 or smaller. For larger n (between 10 and 999), prefixes can be constructed based on a system described by Conway and Guy. [17]
Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols is a Unicode block comprising styled forms of Latin and Greek letters and decimal digits that enable mathematicians to denote different notions with different letter styles.
A 19th-century gravestone in Llanfyllin, Wales, inscribed in the Theban script and an adaptation of Cistercian numerals; the year 1834 at bottom left is written with the four characters for 1000, 800, 30, and 4, rather than the single character for 1834.

For example, using the numero sign, the written long-form of the address "Number 29 Acacia Road" is shortened to "№ 29 Acacia Rd", yet both forms are spoken long. Typographically, the numero sign combines as a single ligature the uppercase Latin letter N with a usually superscript lowercase letter o , sometimes underlined, resembling the ...
Write the amount in numbers in the box with the dollar sign. On the row beneath “Pay to the order of,” write the payment amount in words. Sign your name on the line in the bottom right.
The Natural Area Code, this is the smallest base such that all of 1 / 2 to 1 / 6 terminate, a number n is a regular number if and only if 1 / n terminates in base 30. 32: Duotrigesimal: Found in the Ngiti language. 33: Use of letters (except I, O, Q) with digits in vehicle registration plates of Hong Kong. 34
So too are the thousands, with the number of thousands followed by the word "thousand". The number one thousand may be written 1 000 or 1000 or 1,000; larger numbers are written for example 10 000 or 10,000 for ease of reading. European languages that use the comma as a decimal separator may correspondingly use the period as a thousands separator.
