Division of Letters
The two general divisions of letters are Single Stroke letter and outline or single built-up letter
Single Stroke letter:
The term single stroke means that the letters and numerals should be made by uniform thick lines produced by the line width obtained in one stroke of the pencil or pen. This does not mean that the entire letter should be written without lifting the pen or pencil.
The single stoke letters recommended by BIS can be classified into the following categoreies:
Classification by height (h) to line thickness (d) ratio:
The size of letters and numerals are designated by their height. The height of the capital letters is taken as the base of the dimensions. Vertical and Inclined Letters: The vertical letters have the stems perpendicular to the base line of lettering But for inclined letters, the stems are inclined at 150 to the right of the vertical drawn perpendicular to the base line
The most basic division in typography is between serif and sans-serif typestyles. A serif typeface has serifs--small lines, flourishes or embellishments on the top and bottom of its characters. Think of Times New Roman--that's a serif font. Sans-serif letters like Helvetica lack these extra strokes on the character. There are several more specific categories within the serif and sans-serif groups. For example, Modern typefaces have a large contrast between thin and thick strokes, and Geometric typefaces have even strokes and large apertures. The aperture is the space within a circle, such as a lower case "a" or "o."
Serif fonts are used mainly in printed documents because the extra stroke allows the word to be seen and read as a unit, rather than as a group of individual letters. This makes for faster and easier reading. However, the resolution on a computer screen is much lower than on a printed page, so serifs can blur and become illegible when viewed on a monitor. According to the Complete Reference Web Design, sans-serif fonts maintain their shape better on screen. For the best legibility, choose a sans-serif typeface for online use and a serif type for printed text.

one has three letters, two has three letters, three has five letters, and four has four letters, and so on
Take the total number of letters factorial, then divide by the multiple letters factorial (a and e). 7! / (2!*2!) or 1260.
The duty cycle is (positive time) divided by (total cycle time) = 2/6 = 1/3 or 33.3 %

A permutation is just a way to arrange thing in a certain order. For example, the letters a and b can be permuted as ab and ba. Note there are two letters and 2 permutations. Think of it this way, There are two letters so 2 choices for the first letter and one choice for the second. So 2x1 is 2 If we had a,b and c There would be 3 choices for the first letter, it could be a or b or c, and once one of those is used, two choices for the second and then the last letter is the one left over. So there are 3x2x1=6 permutations. In general if we have n objects, there are nxn-1xn-2....3x2x1 which we write as n!.
