Hi Jacob;

Thank you for this.  I screwed up by searching for " octal digit " instead
of " octal arithmetic ".  Take care.

Thank you very much for the explanation.  My nephew was explaining this

  An "octal digit" is a number in base 8.  The number system of that sort
  counts like this:

  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10,
  11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20,
  21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 30,

  The character representation to distinguish an octal digit from a decimal
  digit is the leading 0 so 6 and 06 are in fact the same value; but 23 and
  023 are entirely different values where the 023 is the octal digit and is
  equivalent to the decimal value of 19 (023 being 2 8's and 3 single 
units).

  To go a bit further, hexadecimal digits are those with a 16 base; counting
  in hexadecimal would be as follows:

  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, 10,
  11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 20,

  Hexadecimal digits are designated as such by a leading "0x" or "0X" so the
  numbers 0x20 and 20 likewise represent entirely different values; 0x20 is
  equivalent to 32 (2 16's and 0 single units).

 If this is the character you want:

 It's windows character code is 164, so you can type it by turning on

numpad.

  Hi Martina & Jacob;

  Would either of you or anyone else on the list have a complete list of
  characters / symbols with the numbers keystrokes that are used in
  conjunction with the alt key?  Or, could someone tell us what number to
  start and end with for the characters / symbols without 0's in front of 
them
  and what number we would start / end with when a 0 is supposed to be
  included at the front of the number?  All help will be appreciated
  enormously by a great many people.  Thanks much.  Take care.

If this is the character you want:
ñ

It's windows character code is 164, so you can type it by turning on
numlock, and then use the alt key along with typing that code on the
  numpad.

Stay well

Re: [Blind-Computing] the A tilda

2010-03-20 Thread Martina Letochová
No. a acute is a different symbol than a tilda. If you have the US 
international keyboard layout set to type a tilda press left alt and type 
0227 on the numpad, then release alt and there it is. BTW, a acute is 
alt+0225 so you can compare these now.
HTH,
Martina

Randy,

It's referred to as "a acute" and "A acute."  I'm not sure that's the
solution though because it seems to me that the "a" with a tilde may be
different from á, etc.

Hi Randy;

I don't have the " A tilda " in my XP symbols list either.  Hopefully 
someone will post with the keystroke using the number pad.  Take care.
