2. Association of Car Rental Industry Systems Standards

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_Car_Rental...

   The car classification code has been created to allow car rental companies to communicate the characteristics of a car using a standardised system, in order to prevent misleading information when booking a rental car. [4] The code describes the category, body style, transmission, driven wheels (FWD, RWD or AWD), fuel type (or electric/hybrid ...

3. BCD (character encoding) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCD_(character_encoding)

   The BCD code for this character is 77 8 in some BCD variants. The groupmark was proposed for Unicode standardization in 2015, [9] and was assigned to value U+2BD2 ⯒ GROUP MARK. Functionally this corresponds to the EBCDIC IGS character (ASCII GS), X'1D'. It is now in Unicode 10.0 at this position, but only the Symbola and Unifont fonts support it.

4. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

   BCD alphamerics are encoded using digit pairs, with the "zone" in the even-addressed digit and the "digit" in the odd-addressed digit, the "zone" being related to the 12, 11, and 0 "zone punches" as in the 1400 series. Input/output translation hardware converted between the internal digit pairs and the external standard 6-bit BCD codes.

5. Car rental - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_rental

   A car rental, hire car or car hire agency is a company that rents automobiles for short periods of time to the public, generally ranging from a few hours to a few weeks. It is often organized with numerous local branches (which allow a user to return a vehicle to a different location), and primarily located near airports or busy city areas and ...

6. Densely packed decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Densely_packed_decimal

   Densely packed decimal (DPD) is an efficient method for binary encoding decimal digits.. The traditional system of binary encoding for decimal digits, known as binary-coded decimal (BCD), uses four bits to encode each digit, resulting in significant wastage of binary data bandwidth (since four bits can store 16 states and are being used to store only 10), even when using packed BCD.

7. Aiken code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aiken_code

   The Aiken code (also known as 2421 code) [1] [2] is a complementary binary-coded decimal (BCD) code. A group of four bits is assigned to the decimal digits from 0 to 9 according to the following table. The code was developed by Howard Hathaway Aiken and is still used today in digital clocks, pocket calculators and similar devices [citation needed].
