DEFINITION

Classification: 400/285

In denominational positions:

(under subclass 284) Subject matter wherein the typewriter is used to imprint one or more columns of numeral digits, and wherein the carriage* is stopped in a position such that the decimal point of a succession of numbers typed one below the other(s) will be arranged in vertical array.

(1) Note. In the instance of a "denominational" column the left character* of successive print-lines* will not necessarily be one below the others, depending on whether the left character represents a "hundreds" digit, a "tens" digit, etc. Rather the decimal point will be in vertical array. Moreover, in the instance where the decimal point of successive numbers is not actually imprinted, but is merely understood to be present, the particular character is the basis of the columnar arrangement, is in fact the "units" digit of the successive numbers.
