[[Image:SlashedZeros.svg|250px|thumb|right|Display of zero in three typefaces. From top to bottom: slashed zero, dotted zero, plain zero.]]&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;slashed zero&#039;&#039;&#039; is a representation of the number &#039;[[0 (number)|0]]&#039; (zero), with a [[Slash (punctuation)|slash]] through it. In [[character encoding]] terms, it is an alternate [[glyph]] (in addition to the open zero glyph) for the self-same zero [[character (computing)|character]]. Unlike in the [[Scandinavian language|Scandinavian]] [[vowel]] &#039;[[Ø]]&#039; and the &amp;quot;[[empty set]]&amp;quot; symbol &#039;[[∅]]&#039;, the slash of a slashed zero usually does not extend past the ellipse in most typographic designs. However the slashed zero is sometimes approximated by overlaying zero and slash characters, producing the character &amp;quot;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-family:Code2000&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;Unicode&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;big&amp;gt;0̸&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero glyph is often used to distinguish the digit &amp;quot;zero&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;0&amp;quot;) from the [[Latin script]] letter &amp;quot;O&amp;quot; anywhere that the distinction needs emphasis, particularly in [[encoding]] systems, scientific and engineering applications, [[computer programming]] (such as [[software development]]), and telecommunications.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Origins==&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero &lt;br /&gt;
* long predates computers, known to have been used in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{harvnb|Cajori|1928}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* is used in many [[Baudot code|Baudot]] [[teleprinter]] applications, specifically the keytop and typepallet that combines &amp;quot;P&amp;quot; and slashed zero.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&amp;quot;Teletype Printing Telegraph Systems, Keytops and Typepallets&amp;quot;, Bulletin 1164B, April 1958: 1-6, Teletype part number 99564(keytop)&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
* is used in many ASCII graphic sets descended from the default typewheel on the [[Teletype Model 33]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Teletype Parts Bulletin 1184B pages 27 - 29 figure 29 - 31&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Usage ==&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero, sometimes called communications zero, was used on teleprinter circuits for weather applications.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&amp;quot;Reference Data For Radio Engineers, Fifth Edition, Howard W. Sams &amp;amp; Co., Inc., 1970: 30-38 Table 23&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero can be used in [[stoichiometry]] to avoid confusion with the symbol for [[Oxygen]] (capital O).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero symbol is widely used in video games and software product keys, and any other instance when clarity is necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero is used by programmers in order to avoid confusion with the character &#039;O&#039;, when it is understood by context that a string should represent a numeric value it may be used to indicate [[null (mathematics)|null]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The slashed zero is also common for recording [[amateur radio]] call signs in logs of contacts to distinguish a zero (i.e. Ø) from a capital &#039;O&#039;, since amateur radio call signs contain both letters and numerals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When personal computers started to become mainstream in the early 1980s, it became one of the things associated with the [[hacker culture]] of the time. Some cartoons depicted computer users talking in [[binary code]] with 1s and 0s using a &#039;&#039;slashed zero&#039;&#039; for the 0. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slashed zeroes can also be used on cheques in order to prevent fraud, for example: changing a 0 to an 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slashed zeroes were once common in military radio where the problem arose of &amp;quot;0(zero)&amp;quot; being confused with &amp;quot;O(capital O)&amp;quot;. On typewriters, typists would type a normal zero, backspace, and hit the slash key to mark the zero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of the slashed zero by many computer systems of the 1970s and 1980s inspired the 1980s [[space rock]] band [[Underground Zerø]] to use the [[Scandinavian language|Scandinavian]] [[vowel]] &#039;&#039;[[ø]]&#039;&#039; in the band&#039;s name and as the band Logo on all their album covers (see link below)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slashed zeroes have been used in the [[Adobe Flash|Flash-based]] artwork of [[Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries]], notably in their 2003 work, Operation Nukorea. The reason for their use is unknown, but has been conjectured to be related to themes of &#039;negation, erasure, and absence&#039;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.metafilter.com/25220/That-gentle-piano-is-the-peace-of-the-grave#476182&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Representation in Unicode and HTML ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{SpecialChars}}&lt;br /&gt;
The treatment of slashed zero as a [[glyph]] is supported by any font whose designer chose the option. Successful display on any local system depends on having the font available there, either via the system&#039;s font files or via [[font embedding]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The treatment of slashed zero with distinct [[character encoding]] is supported by [[Unicode]], but only via a pair of [[combining character]]s, not as a distinct single character (or &#039;&#039;[[codepoint]]&#039;&#039;, in Unicode parlance). It is treated literally as &amp;quot;a zero that is slashed&amp;quot; and it is coded as two characters, the commonplace zero and then the &amp;quot;combining long solidus overlay&amp;quot; &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;(U+0338)&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;. These combining characters overlay the preceding character, creating a composite glyph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When used in [[HTML]], use of such combining characters is valid but not yet supported by all current web browsers; for instance, [[Microsoft Internet Explorer]] fails to render them.  They may be coded as &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;0&amp;amp;amp;#x0338;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; giving &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-family:Code2000&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;Unicode&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;big&amp;gt;0̸&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Similar symbols==&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;slashed zero&#039;&#039; has the disadvantage that it can be confused with several other symbols:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;slashed zero&#039;&#039; format causes problems for certain [[Scandinavian languages]] &amp;amp;mdash; [[Ø]] is used as a [[Letter (alphabet)|letter]] in the [[Danish alphabet|Danish]], [[Faroese alphabet|Faroese]] and [[Norwegian alphabet]]s, where it represents {{IPAblink|ø}} or {{IPAblink|œ}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* It also resembles the [[Greek alphabet|Greek letters]] [[Theta (letter)|Theta]] and [[Phi (letter)|Phi]] in some fonts (although usually, the slash is horizontal or vertical, respectively).&lt;br /&gt;
* The symbols [[Ø]] and &amp;quot;∅&amp;quot; (U+2205) are used in [[mathematics]] to refer to the [[empty set]]. &amp;lt;!-- &amp;amp;empty; ? &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varnothing&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ? &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\emptyset&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;?  --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;{{unicode|⌀}}&amp;quot; (U+2300) is Unicode&#039;s codepoint for the [[diameter]] symbol.&lt;br /&gt;
* In German-speaking countries, Ø is also used as a symbol for [[average]] value: average in German is &#039;&#039;[[:de:Durchschnitt|Durchschnitt]]&#039;&#039;, directly translated as &#039;&#039;cut-through&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However the &#039;&#039;unslashed zero&#039;&#039; has the disadvantage that it is easily confused with the letter &#039;O&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In paper writing one may not distinguish the 0 and O at all, or may add a slash across it in order to show the difference, although this sometimes causes ambiguity in regard to the symbol for the [[empty set]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Variations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dotted zero===&lt;br /&gt;
The zero with a dot in the center seems to have originated as an option on [[IBM 3270]] display controllers. The dotted zero may appear similar to the [[Greek alphabet|Greek letter]] [[theta]] (particularly capital theta, Θ), but the two have different [[glyphs]]. In [[Raster graphics|raster]] fonts, the theta usually has a horizontal line connecting, or nearly touching, the sides of an O; while the dotted zero simply has a dot in the middle. However, on a low-definition display, such a form can be confused with a numeral 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alternatively, the dot can become a vertical trace, for example by adding a “combining short vertical line overlay” &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;(U+20D3)&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.  It may be coded as &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;0&amp;amp;amp;#x20D3;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; giving &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-family:Code2000&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;Unicode&amp;quot;&amp;gt;0⃓&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Slashed &#039;O&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
[[IBM]] (and a few other early mainframe makers) used a convention in which the letter O has a slash and the digit 0 does not. This is even more problematic for [[Danish people|Danes]], [[Faroese people|Faroese]], and [[Norwegian people|Norwegians]] because it means two of their letters—the &#039;&#039;&#039;O&#039;&#039;&#039; and slashed O (&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Ø]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)—are similar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Reversed slash===&lt;br /&gt;
Some [[Burroughs Corporation|Burroughs]]/[[Unisys]] equipment displays a zero with a &#039;&#039;reversed&#039;&#039; slash, as “&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;Unicode&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;amp;#8416;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Deutsches Kfz-Kennzeichen für Behördenfahrzeuge (Nummernbereich 3).jpg|German license plate depicting diagonal gap|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
Yet another convention common on early line [[computer printer|printer]]s left zero unornamented but added a tail or hook to the letter-O so that it resembled an inverted [[Q]] or [[cursive]] capital letter-O. In the [[Fixedsys]] typeface, the numeral 0 has two internal barbs along the lines of the slash, which can alternately be considered a narrow “S” within the zero. On [[Vehicle registration plates of Germany|German car license plates]], which use the [[FE-Schrift]] typeface, there is an “insinuated” slash in zeros:  a diagonal crack just beneath the top right curvature of the zero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Typefaces==&lt;br /&gt;
There are very few [[typeface]]s commonly included in a [[Personal Computer|PC]] that use the slashed zero.  They include: &lt;br /&gt;
* [[Terminal (typeface)|Terminal]] in [[Microsoft]]&#039;s [[Windows]] line.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Consolas]] in [[Microsoft|Microsoft&#039;s]] [[Windows Vista]], [[Windows 7]], [[Microsoft Office 2007]] and [[Visual Studio|Microsoft Visual Studio 2010]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Menlo (typeface)|Menlo]] in [[OS X]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Monaco (typeface)|Monaco]] in [[OS X]]&lt;br /&gt;
* The Linux distribution known as [[Fedora (operating system)|Fedora]] ships with a tweaked variant of the Liberation typeface which features the use of a slashed zero; this is not present on most existing Linux distributions.&lt;br /&gt;
* The [[DejaVu fonts|DejaVu]] family of typefaces has a &amp;quot;DejaVu Sans Mono&amp;quot; variant with a dotted zero.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web&lt;br /&gt;
