You may not like those but I went for something pointing UP for UPper case, something LOW for LOWer case, and a hash for numbers as that's quite a common representation.
Edit: Added ? for maybe - as in "  " is UP TO a 3 digit number. In England at least the old format was "^ ^^^", but "Y 1ESS" was valid because it was any number in the range 0-999 (guess what my ideal number plate is). Also according to the wiki you can have up to 32 characters, so I changed that. |
I can't understand what is that function "min".
j = min
What is it?
Is there any further explanation?
