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.

Do not end a Cutter with the numeral 1 or 0.
