Re: Decoding new serial numbers Message #7 Posted by James M. Prange on 19 May 2003, 9:12 p.m., in response to message #3 by jose goncalves
Well, perhaps some people don't like to let everyone know their calculators' serial numbers, so post only the country, year, and week codes, CN026, for example, and leave off the last five digits (the serial part). In other cases, perhaps the serial part doesn't seem relevant, so is left out for the sake of brevity. After all, it seems reasonable to expect that if the country, year, and week codes of two units of a given model are the same, then they should be very nearly identical.
