Description
A numeral is the symbol representing a number. A numeral is the figure of a number, with different notation types used as a figure (VIII and 8 for Roman and Arabic numerals; ε « and ζ for practical and financial Chinese). A numeral may consist of one or more characters or digits. 60 and 60.00 are different numerals consisting of two and four digits, respectively, which represent the same number sixty. Sixty is not a numeral but a word with the meaning 'number 60'. Similarly, N is not a numeral but a symbol representing the entity 'number'. The equation N=60 assignes the numerical value 60 to the entity 'number'. The numeral 60 is a symbol for a pure number that equals 6 times 10 (or 2 times 30; or 1 times 60).
