Product Information

Proper fraction button is used to change a number of the form of 9/5 to the form of 1 4/5. A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is less than the denominator (bottom number). With our bespoke glass shelves, you can be sure to enhance the appearance of your bathroom, bedroom, kitchen or living room whilst allowing natural light to flow and improving the overall aesthetic of your space. TV's became quite blurry approaching 132 (B&W@625px) char so that seems to be the hardware maximum width upper limit. Conclusion: 80/132 character come from the age of punch cards, 24/25 lines due the 4:3 dimensions of common CRTs Multiples of 17: 17, 34, 51, 68, 85, 102, 119, 136, 153, 170, 187, 204, 221, 238, 255, 272, 289, 306, 323, 340

Memory for holding the text in a glass terminal like the 3300 was generally constructed using shift registers. These tended to be small, so the memory for a "screen of text" required many chips. Using fewer chips was better than more, but there was no strong requirement to use a particular number of them unless you were going for the lowest possible cost. In a 'last' step the VT100 of 1978 introduced a 132x24 display, so now every 'professional' output could be shown. With 640 pixels being a natural, easy-to-implement screen width for systems using bitmapped frame buffers, those systems had another good reason: it made the text display logic easier to have 8 pixel wide characters, because then to display a row of pixels for a string you could just copy a byte from the font memory into the framebuffer and increment your pointer to move on to the next character, which is much easier than any alternative font width.With 5 pixels to play with things become a bit better, but a major improvement in legibility happens at 6 pixels; along with spacing this means you can fit about 91 characters in a display. RHS in cold and hot finish. Mild Steel Rectangular and Square hollow section, also called box section. Can be supplied in various grades including BS EN 10025 S355 and S275. Since an IBM Electric was used as genuine terminal for the very first DEC machine ( PDP-1), it could be argued that DEC's 80 column orientation is originated here :)) That manufacturers of typewriters for simple home/office usage did go for design decision with a shorter carriage so only letter size paper (and thus less characters) can be used is unrelated here. Such was the case for the famed TV Typewriter. In this case, even a single wasted byte was too much, so this display used two screens of 32 x 16 = 1024 bytes. As new forms of RAM emerged that had "binary sizes", you saw a profusion of similar sizes - almost all of the early S-100 systems used 64 x 16 = 1024. This became a fairly widespread "standard" for the mid-1970s.

If most used is by computing power, or amount of users, then a single /370 installation might outclass a hundred PDPs. It's much like baking a peanut cake takes many more peanuts than one with a coconut filling takes coconuts :) characters is, as described in the comments, very close to the width you can fit on standard paper sizes in portrait orientation. Most typewriters and "letter quality" printers used either Courier Elite (12CPI) or Pica (10CPI). As long as you used reasonable margins you could fit a line of text of either of those onto an 80 character display, so it is particularly useful for word processing, and again you can easily get a printer that can print whatever you see on screen. Multiples of 18: 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 144, 162, 180, 198, 216, 234, 252, 270, 288, 306, 324, 342, 360

Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104, 112, 120, 128, 136, 144, 152, 160 In fact, while the Selectric is usually seen as an office typewriter to handle standard letters, one major design goal was the capability of printing 80 characters, so it could also replace other data entry and print systems for IBM Mainframes. Mainly ofc, everything based around the IBM Electric typewriter, used for the same role since the 1930s - unlike Selectric also available in 132 character width. (*9)
