Where 2474 fits
Why 2474 is special
It redefined the old IP type-of-service byte into a six-bit code point, which is how networks classify traffic into priority classes.

In historical numeral systems
Egyptian
2 lotuses, 4 coils of rope, 7 hobbles, 4 strokes
2 × 1,000 + 4 × 100 + 7 × 10 + 4 × 1 = 2,474. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
4 corner wedges + 1 vertical wedge (sixties place), 1 corner wedge + 4 vertical wedges (units place)
41 × 60 + 14 = 2474. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
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.

What is 2474 in Roman numerals?
