and which digits are used, but also by language. Arabic and Persian
both use the Arabic script, but do things differently when it comes to
ordering components of a range or expression.<br><br>Also, we should
probably mention that some scripts don't display simple numbers like

While Arabic and Hebrew agree on the same ordering of digits,
with the most-significant digit on the left, the layout of
entire numbers in context, including groups of numbers or use of
number separators, numerical and other punctuation differs both
by script and, in the case of Arabic, by which set of digits is
used. No matter how the layout is resolved the order of
characters in memory essentially follows the order they are
typed. <br>
