Regulations on the use of numbers in publications.
Relevant departments in our country stipulate that when newspapers use numbers, they should use numbers in accordance with the standards for the use of numbers in publications.
Regulations on the use of numbers in publications, and regulations on the use of Chinese characters and Arabic numerals involving numbers in publications. The State Administration of Technical Supervision issued GB/T15835-1995, which came into effect on June 1, 1996. The general principle is: Arabic numerals must be used for numerical values ??in statistical tables, such as positive and negative integers, decimals, percentages, fractions, proportions, etc. Characters that serve as morphemes in stereotyped words, phrases, idioms, idioms, abbreviations or words with rhetorical color must use Chinese characters. For other numbers such as years, months, days, physical quantities, non-physical quantities, codes, code names, etc., examples of using Arabic numerals or using Chinese character numerals are given based on the principles of appropriate use, accuracy, and relatively uniform style throughout the article, as Reference. These regulations apply to news newspapers and periodicals at all levels, popular readings and professional social and humanities publications, as well as natural science, engineering and technology publications. They do not apply to literary books and periodicals and rearranged ancient books. On July 29, 2011, the National Standardization Administration Committee released a new version, which was renamed "Usage of Numbers in Publications GB/T15835-2011" and was implemented on November 1, 2011.
