John,
I didn't see this on the UEB-ed list otherwise I would have responded.
With respect to an electron configuration of 2.8.8.2
What is most important to realise is that UEB is a single code for literary,
technical, computer etc. There may be different symbols to learn and some
specific conventions for particular situations, but the rules are across the
board.
So looking at 2.8.8.2 follow the UEB rules.
This electron configuration in Chemistry is no different to the example "par.
4.2.2" in 6.2.1 of the Rule Book.
Typing 2.8.8.2 in DBT will give the correct result: #b4h4h4b

Hi,
The UEB for Science gives an example where Electronic structure has the numbers
in print with commas and spaces and replicated in Braille accordingly.
Currently doing a Combined Science paper for Year 10 student and in the print
version it is (one of them) 2.8.8.2 – does the decimal point rule the
translation into Braille or should it be number sign, number, period, number
sign, number, period etc with no spaces? Or Number sign, number, period,
number, period, etc?
Thanks for any guidance.
J B Blake
