Now it is not quite true that the same knots were used irrespective of the position as would be the case in a true positional system. There seems only one exception, namely the unit position, where different styles of knots were used from those in the other positions. In fact two different styles were used in the units position, one style if the unit were a 1 and a second style if the unit were greater than one. Both these styles differed from the standard knot used for all other positions. The system had a zero position, for this would be represented as no knots in that position. This meant that the spacing had to be highly regular so that zero positions would be clear.
Wie kan mij zeggen of de Inca's daar gaat dit stukje over nou een ander knoop handteerde voor de getallen 0 tm 9 of een andere knoop voor het getal 1 als dit als een eental wordt gebruikt dus 1 en niet 101 of 11 etc
