For Roman or Arabic numerals: Use .A12-.A19. |
---|
Entries beginning with numerals are assigned an A Cutter (.A12-.A19) and numbered to precede |
all entries beginning with the letter A. |
Because of the infinite range of numbers, choose a Cutter toward the center of the available span when Cuttering for the first number in a class. This will allow room for both smaller and larger numbers. Follow this practice with relatively low numbers since decimal fractions are filed in numeric order before the number 1. |
