formerly worked on Singer/Friden System TEN... predecessor to Quantel etc...

seem to remember that the FN instruction (Form a Number) would pass with P..Y and treat them as an "over punch" yielding negative number -1..-9

At the same time (1970s...) the UNIVACs would allow -0 ... but that's a story for another time....
