Why 162 is special

161 is polled and 162 is pushed: a device with a failing power supply reports it immediately rather than waiting for the next check. The split matters because polling intervals determine how long a fault stays invisible.

Read as powers of two: 128 + 32 + 2 = 162.

In historical numeral systems

Egyptian

1 coil of rope, 6 hobbles, 2 strokes

1 × 100 + 6 × 10 + 2 × 1 = 162. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.

Babylonian

2 vertical wedges (sixties place), 4 corner wedges + 2 vertical wedges (units place)

2 × 60 + 42 = 162. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.

Greek (Ionic)

rho, then xi, then beta, marked as a numeral

rho-xi-beta + keraia

rho + xi + beta written in descending order and added — the letters carry their values wherever they stand, so this is addition, not place value.

Hebrew numerals

qof, then samekh, then bet

qof-samekh-bet

qof (100) + samekh (60) + bet (2) = 162, written in descending order.

Maya

1 bar + 3 dots (upper, twenties place) over 2 dots (lower, units place)

8 × 20 + 2 = 162. Places stack vertically with the smallest at the bottom, so the upper group is worth twenty times the lower.

Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.
