V - Single discrete data representing an unlimited number of states

 
 
 
 
 
Code of field: V
 
Type of field: single discrete data with an unlimited number of states.
 
Storage: one integer value in the range of 0 till the number of added states.
 
 
Applicable to:
 
Any data that can be reduced to a simple discrete value such as "presence/absence" or "yes/no". 
 
 
Comments:
 
V characters format has been created to extend the T field that can only contain 4 main states and 12 intermediate states. The difference between the two fields is that the V field can create an unlimited number of states. However, unlike for T fields intermediate states are not possible.
