Letter: Letters: Clever slant

Published 1 August 1992

From ALEC VANS

Those figures made up from bits of the figure 8 which form the display
on my pocket calculator, for example, are a very clever invention by somebody.
But the question that keeps occurring to me is: why they slope to the right
instead of being upright? Perhaps the actual inventor might read this letter
and let us know why he/she made them slope.
