After January 26, 2004, SEDOLs were changed to be alpha-numeric and are issued sequentially, beginning with B000009 . At each character position numbers precede letters and " vowels are never used ".

This way, a point or comma may be displayed between character positions instead of occupying a whole position by itself, which would be the case if employing the bottom middle vertical segment as a point and the bottom left diagonal segment as a comma.

In the simple case the display matrix can be just a matrix of code points ( so named " character pointer table " ), but it usually stores for each character position not only a code, but also " attributes ".

It has also been employed as a " hardware " counter in some designs; an example of this is the ZX81, which lets it keep track of character positions on the TV screen by triggering an interrupt at wrap around ( by connecting INT to A6 ).

Antiope was only a little more complicated, the relevant attributes for each character position ( about 13 bits, or a few more if further additional fonts were in use ) being stored in a separate memory page in the decoder, distinct from the memory page used for the characters.

The Chinese name of Youth Outreach are special in that, the first word Qing, meaning green, symbolizes youthfulness and liveliness, and its character position between TS, meaning aid, and > y, meaning society, creates the picture of youth being supported and cared for.

UTF-32 does not make calculating the displayed width of a string easier, since even with a " fixed width " font there may be more than one code point per character position ( combining marks ) or more than one character position per code point ( for example " grapheme clusters " for CJK ideographs ).

The GX API also provided hit-testing functions, so that for example if the user clicked on a layout shape in the middle of a ligature, or in the region between a change of text direction, GX itself would provide the smarts to determine which character position in the original text corresponded to the click.

If one takes those elements to be the different character positions in a word of length, then each-combination corresponds to a word of length using an alphabet of two letters, say with copies of the letter 1 ( indicating the positions in the chosen combination ) and letters 0 ( for the remaining positions ).
