OT: Braille Hexadecimal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Okay, so this has nothing to do with Linux or SBCs and almost nothing
to do with accessibility, but all I'm getting from Google is how
unicode handles visual braille and I figure these lists probably have
the highest concentration of those in the intersection of "geeky
enough to know hexadecimal" and "uses Braille on a regular basis".

So, in print or spoken, Hexadecimal uses the Letters A-F to represent
decimal values 10-15, but in braille, the letters A-F are already
doing double duty as the digits 1-6. I don't use braille, so I've
never run into this conflict of notation, but I find myself curious
how my braille reading peers resolve it.
