Not numbers. Numbers != Digits. In base 10, there are 10 digits, which can be used to represent infinite numbers, like 11

Well, according to the dictionary and Wikipedia (which I both consulted before posting) the word number applies to both 11 and 1. Since that was not good enough for me I added the words cyphers and digits to bring the point across.

Please explain how you missed that / why you pretended to?
