I'm going through data files that I'm converting, and one of them uses "M" for thousand, "C" for hundred, "/M" for per thousand, and "/C" for per hundred. To me "M" on the end of a number means million, and "C" on the end of a number means 12 in hex. What should I do about these symbols?
The proposed standard, which I'm using in the program, uses 0000 for both "pieces" and "for each", so 000012 means "hundred pieces" and 00000e means "per hundred". Should these be separated? (The number per hundred is actually dollars per hundred, but the codes ignore dollars.) phma
