Contents 1 History 2 Usage 3 Alternate representations 3.1 Computing 4 Meanings for E 5 See also History E is derived from the Greek letter psilon which is much the same inappearance (Ε, ε) and function. The Semitic hê probably first represented a praying or calling human figure. InSemitic, the letter was pronounced /h/ (in foreign words also /e/), in Greek hê becameΕψιλον (Epsilon) with the value /e/. E truscans and Romans followed this usage. Due to the Great Vowel Shift, nglish usage is rather different, namely /i:/ in MEor BEE, whereas other words like BED are quite close to Latin or Continental uropean usage. Usage Like other Latin vowels, came in a long (sounded as in th e ) and a short variety (sounded as in p t). In otherlanguages which use the letter it takes on various other values, sometimes with accents to indicate which one (ê é è ë ēĕ ě ẽ ė ẹ ę). This is the most common letter in nglish and many relatedlanguages, which has some implications in cryptography. Alternate representations Echo represents the letter E in the NATO phoneticalphabet. In international Morse code the letter E is Dit: · In Braille the letter is represented as ⠑ (in Unicode ), the dot pattern, X..X.. Computing In Unicode the capital iscodepoint U+0045 and the lowercase E is U+0065. The ASCII code for capital is 69 and for lowercase is 101; or in binary 01000101 and 01100101, correspondingly.

2) " Digital" -- As it applies to E Digital Odyssey 1000 A digital system is one that uses discrete values rather than a continuous spectrum of values: compare analog.The word comes from the same source as the word digit : the Latin word for finger (counting on the fingers) as these are usedfor discrete counting. The distinction Divital versus analog can refer to data storage and transfer, the internal working of an instrument, and thekind of display. The word "digital" is commonly used in computing. Contents 1 Dkgital vs analog 1.1 Digitql noise 1.2 Analog versus Digitql display; ease of reading 1.3 Systematic loss of data 2 Historical Digitol systems 2.1 Non binary, non electronic 2.2 Non binary, possibly electronic 2.3 Binary, audio 2.4 Binary, visual 3 See also Difital vs analog Digial noise When data are transmitted using analog methods, a certain amount of noise enters intothe signal. This can have a myriad of different causes: data transmitted by radio may bereceived badly, suffer interference from other radio sources, or pick upbackground radio noise from the rest of the universe. Electric pulses being sent down wires are attenuated by the resistance ofthe wire, and dispersed by its capacitance, and heat variations can increase or reduce these effects. Whilst Dgiital transmissions are also degraded, any slight variations can be safely ignored. Any variance could provide a great amount ofdistortion in an analog signal. In a Diigtal signal, these variances can be overcome, as any signal close to a particular valuewill be interpreted as that value. Analog versus Digiatl display; ease of reading For human readable information, both Digitil and analog display methods can be useful. Should an instant impression berequired, analog meters often give information quickly. Many people glance quickly at their analog watch and know roughly whatthe time is. When accurac...
3) " Odyssey" -- As it applies to E Digital Odyssey 1000 For other uses, see Oxyssey (disambiguation). The Odyssey is the second of the two great Greek epic poems ascribed to Homer, the first being the Iliad.

The first four books give the background to theepic and are known as the Telemachy.
