Sequences acronyms

Veröffentlicht am Freitag, 18. September 2009 von Denis Hoa

Due to manufacturers each using their own terminology to denominate their sequences, there are no standard denominations for each common type of sequence.

Here is a table of the equivalent manufacturers’ acronyms with the corresponding type of sequence.
