Punctuation is typically referred to as "special characters" - whereas
alphanumeric means it's alphabetic or numeric, e.g.: letter or number only.

In this case I agree with you that "number" and "letter" are better choices.

Many programming languages contain functions to recognize alphabetic or
numeric characters (isAlpha, isNum, isDigit). To get an idea what words
other people choose, you can look up these functions on the Internet.

Yes, they ARE numbers. However, in an attempt to avoid confusion, the

Hi all:
The documents I am working with refer to numerical characters and
alpha characters.
Just out of professional curiosity, is this terminology correct?
Those two phrases sound overly complicated to me -- "numerical

Hi Deirdre,
I tend to refer to numbers as either "numbers" or "arabic numbers,"
depending on whether I am also using "roman numerals." Alphabetical
characters I refer to as "lowercase letters" or "uppercase letters,"
with the obvious distinctions.

The term "alphanumeric characters" avoids the slang alpha and also addresses
numbers as individual characters, rather than things like 1.8956132 and
218,555,123 and 1x10^6...all of which are numbers.
