In steno, each letter A-Z corresponds to specific key combinations on the steno keyboard. For example, the letter "A" is typically represented by pressing the left pinky key, while "B" is created by pressing the left index and left middle keys simultaneously. Each letter's stroke is a combination of one or more keys, allowing for efficient and rapid writing. To master these strokes, practice regularly using steno drills and exercises that focus on the alphabet.
Although the normal way to write the number four in Roman numerals is IV, that isn't much easier to write than IIII (if you count the pen strokes, it's 3 strokes vs. four strokes) and this system was intended by the Romans to be convenient to use, so they allowed that variation.
Oh, isn't that a happy little number? To write 1.365 billion, you simply write the number 1 followed by a comma, then write 365 million after it. It's just like painting a beautiful landscape - take your time, be gentle with your strokes, and remember, there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents.
There are no fractional strokes.
CRT (Character Recognition Technology) strokes per hour can be calculated by multiplying the words per minute (WPM) by the average number of characters per word. At 44 WPM and assuming an average of 5 characters per word, the calculation would be 44 WPM x 5 characters = 220 strokes per minute. To convert this to strokes per hour, multiply by 60, resulting in 13,200 strokes per hour.
