Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Architecture and Building Construction, Vol. 1: Prepared for Students of the International Correspondence Schools, Scranton, Pa;; Arithmetic; Formulas; Geometry and Mensuration; Architectural Engineering; With Practical Questions and Examples In pointing of these figures, begin at the right-hand figure and count - units, tens, hundreds; the next group of three figures is thousands; therefore, we insert a comma before beginning with them. Beginning at the figure 5, we say thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and insert another comma. We next read millions, tens of mil lions, hundreds of millions (insert another comma), billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions. The entire line of figures would be read: four hundred thirty-two billions one hundred ninety-eight millions seven hundred sixty five thousands four hundred thirty-two. When we thus read a line of figures it is called numeration, and if the numeration be changed back to figures, it is called notation.
