It is the simplest numeral system to represent natural number s in order to represent a number N , an arbitrarily chosen symbol representing 1 is repeated N times. For example, using the symbol a tally mark , the number 6 is represented as . The standard method of counting on one s fingers is effectively a unary system. Unary is most useful in counting or tallying ongoing results, such as the Score game score in a game of sport s, since no intermediate results need to be erased or discarded. Clustering Marks are typically clustered in groups of five for legibility. This is similar to the practice of using Decimal separator Thousands separator digit group separators such as spaces or commas in the decimal system, to make large numbers such as 100,000,000 easier to read. The first or fifth mark in each group may be written at an angle to the others for easier distinction. In the fourth example depicted at left, the fifth stroke closes out a group of five, and is sometimes nicknamed the herringbone method of counting. In Brazil but also France , a variation of this system is commonly used Similar to the herringbone method, four marks are arranged to form a square, with the fifth mark crossing the square diagonally instead of arranging sticks in linear fashion.
