    End-of-cell and end-of row markers (¤) appear automatically in each box when display of non-printable characters turned on. Soft hyphen or non-breaking hyphen (-) is a hidden separator for hyphenation in the places specified by the user, regardless of the automatic hyphenation. [4]

  3. Ruled paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_paper

    Initially, paper was ruled by hand, sometimes using templates. [1] Scribes could rule their paper using a "hard point," a sharp implement which left embossed lines on the paper without any ink or color, [2] or could use "metal point," an implement which left colored marks on the paper, much like a graphite pencil, though various other metals were used.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(typography)

    The point was first established by the Milanese typographer, Francesco Torniella da Novara (c. 1490 – 1589) in his 1517 alphabet, L'Alfabeto.The construction of the alphabet is the first based on logical measurement called "Punto," which corresponds to the ninth part of the height of the letters or the thickness of the principal stroke.

  5. Graduation (scale) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduation_(scale)

    A ruler with two linear scales: the metric and imperial.It includes shorter minor graduations and longer major graduations. A graduation is a marking used to indicate points on a visual scale, which can be present on a container, a measuring device, or the axes of a line plot, usually one of many along a line or curve, each in the form of short line segments perpendicular to the line or curve.

    The C-Thru Ruler Company is an American maker of measuring devices and specialized products for drafting, designing and drawing. The company was formed in 1939 in Bloomfield, Connecticut , [ 1 ] by Jennie R.

  7. Sparse ruler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_ruler

    A complete sparse ruler is called maximal if there is no complete sparse ruler of greater length with marks. Complete minimal rulers of length 135 and 136 require one more mark than those of lengths 124-134, 137 and 138. A sparse ruler is called optimal if it is both minimal and maximal.

    The row space is defined similarly. The row space and the column space of a matrix A are sometimes denoted as C(A T) and C(A) respectively. [2]

  9. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    Each ruler's scale has graduations labeled with precomputed outputs of various mathematical functions, acting as a lookup table that maps from position on the ruler as each function's input. Calculations that can be reduced to simple addition or subtraction using those precomputed functions can be solved by aligning the two rulers and reading ...
