EXAMPLE
The Russian postal service uses a special template for entering postal codes, which makes automatic sorting of their parcels faster. It has nine segments, and digits looks like this (please check the first link in the Links section for a more readable, graphical example):
._ _ _ _ _ _ _
| | /| | /_ |_| |_ /_ / |_| |_|
|_| | /_ / | _| |_| | |_| /
The template for a single digit contains nine segments: four vertical, three horizontal and two diagonal:
Vertical Horizontal Diagonal
_
| | _ /
| | _ /
Using a combination of vertical, horizontal and/or diagonal segments, it is possible to create digits:
