A '''number''' is a term that describes the amount of something.
Numbers are usually represented in [[English]] writing by a system of ''numerals'':
*0 (zero)
*1 (one)
*2 (two)
*3 (three)
*4 (four)
*5 (five)
*6 (six)
*7 (seven)
*8 (eight)
*9 (nine)
Which can be used in combination to represent any number of any size. An older system of representation, still sometime encountered on clocks and other places, is [[Roman numeral]]s, which used certain letters of the [[alphabet]] instead.
