7 with a line in the middle of it

[Al Neri]

Do you write a 7 with a line through it? The supposed european style." I started doing it because my 1's started to look like 7's. I am definately part of the minority.

Anyone else do it?

 

[imported_LoKe]

I started doing that, as well as putting a diagonal line through my zero's.

 

[nakedfrog]

No.
Well, maybe sometimes.

 

[Pepsi90919]

yes

 

[raystorm]

I see no poll. I don't put lines on any numbers.

 

[LittleEnglish]

Yes I do it.

Neither do I unless I'm taking an inventory of somethin important. I remember we moved offices and had to jot down the serial numbers of all the computers and check them in our inventory. When I got back to my desk bam... I couldnt freaking read my handwriting between 0s and Os or 1s and lower case Ls. Other then that. Nah.

Yep. Started doing that in math classes in HS. Too easy to mis-read the chicken scratch I put down.

 

[SmoochyTX]

Yes, I put a line through my 7s. I also put a slash through my 0s.

 

[Tiamat]

Yes, my 7's have a horizontal line through them. One one's have the horizontal pedestal beneath them.

 

[SpunkyJones]

Dam, just looked at my notes at work, I do put a line through my 7's. Interesting.

 

[Vonkhan]

Yes

PS: You fail at teh poal

 

[bigrash]

Yup, I've always done it because my 1 looks too much like 7

 

[Alistar7]

Yes, and also through my "z".

 

[edro]

Yes, and through my Zs as well.
I only do the 0 if it is amongst Os.

 

[Injury]

Yes.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Yes.

 

[manowar821]

Yes.

 

[Al Neri]

FIXT POAL

 

[hypn0tik]

Yep. I cross my 7s.

No slash through the 0 though.

 

[jandrews]

yes, apparently you are in the vast majority not the minority?

 

[clamum]

Nope. I put a slash through a 0 sometimes, for work related stuff to reduce confusion between O and 0. The only letter I put a line through are Zs.

 

[compman25]

sometimes

 

[pontifex]

never done and never plan to.

Same here, I started with the zeros as soon as I figured out how difficult it was to tell if its a zero or an "O" because of peoples handwriting.

EDIT: Also put a line though my Zs as well at times.
