Alphanumeric Value
An alphanumeric value is a value that can include both:
■
Numeric values in the range of ’0-9’ and
■
Alphabetical characters in the range of ’a-z’.
For example: BG2on2ndfloor.
Usually alphanumeric values are applied to specify a name or password,
where the use of both alphabetical and numerical characters expands the
flexibility to enter a name or value of your choice.
When used for passwords, alphanumerical characters expand the number
of possible code combinations for each single character.
For example:
■
Numerical values would allow you to select from 10 different values per
character only, in the range of ’0-9’.
■
Alphabetical values would allow you to select from 26 different values
per character only, in the range of ’a-z’. or maximum 52 when the
characters would be case sensitive: ’a-z’, and ’A-Z’.
■
Alphanumerical characters enable you to select from 36 different values
per character, in the range of ’0-9’ and ’a-z’. When the field value would
be case sensitive, the number of values per character would be 62:
Per character, you could select from a value in the range of ’0-9’, ’a-z’,
and ’A-Z’.
