Seven-segment Display Character Representations - Display Pattern Tables

Display Pattern Tables

The tables below show alternative seven-segment display patterns for the Hindu-Arabic numerals, the 26 letters of the English language part of the Latin alphabet, and the Greek alphabet. Although the designs for digits are now mostly universal, there is no conventional set for all letters, i.e. ad-hoc solutions prevail, some using two consecutive segment arrays for a single symbol (see 'K', 'M', 'N', 'T', 'V', 'W', 'X') and most employing a unicase design. Hence the patterns shown have been used to various degrees, some are virtually unused. Note that letters are usually left-aligned (chiefly 'uppercase i' but not 'lowercase L' because have down segment on), while the digit one '1' is right-aligned. Sometimes the most intuitive shape may not be used because it was ambiguous with a different character.

Famous quotes containing the words display, pattern and/or tables:

    “Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet with certain natural, witty, affectionate people who have unusual distinction and are capable of every vice, but who make a display of none in public and about whom no one can affirm they have a single one. There is something supple and secret about them. Besides, their perversity gives spice to their most innocent occupations, such as taking a walk in the garden at night.”
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    “Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.”
    —Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947)

    “It breedeth no small offence and scandal to see and consider upon the one part the curiosity and cost bestowed by all sorts of men upon their private houses; and on the other part the unclean and negligent order and spare keeping of the houses of prayer by permitting open decays and ruins of coverings of walls and windows, and by appointing unmeet and unseemly tables with foul cloths for the communion of the sacrament.”
    —Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
