Why are the numbers reversed on a computer upright within comparison to a mobile?
Answers: The predecessor to the touch tone dial was the rotary dial. The rotary dial operate by winding a spring and when agree to go it would generate electronic pulses for respectively digit dialled. For example a digit 9 would pulse out nine times. The digit 6 would pulse out six times. In order for this to operate correctly the unmatched number (the most pulses) had to be the furthest away from the dial fingerstop. This designed that the digit 1 was at the top of the dial and the digits 9 (nine pulses) & 0 (ten pulses) be at the bottom.
When the touch tone dial was created they followed indistinguishable pattern putting the digit 1 at the top and the digits 9&0 at the bottom to avoid misdialling by those used to using rotary dial telephones.
The electronic baby grand with a dial wipe came long after the handset dial. The typewriter did not have a dial wipe.
