### z:1 NOTATION

 

z:1 notation is base 60, lining everything up nicely with the alpha-numeric characters:

                    'z' is zero

        'a' through 'y' is 1-25

        'A' through 'Y' is 26-50

        '9' through '1' is 51-59 (minutes only: 'nine minutes to' through 'one minute to')

 

### FILES
