From 42603b9bb4c456b2b6e9204a72717c6f7c20b44b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: bitcoinprecept <128843333+bitcoinprecept@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2023 09:35:13 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Update README.md Line 73 seems to have a typo associating the 47 character capacity with the 29x29 qr size, when the reference table displays 47 as the limit for 25x25. This proposed change corrects the typo to show 25x25 in the text of line 73. --- docs/seed_qr/README.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/seed_qr/README.md b/docs/seed_qr/README.md index f22905a3..d35bb805 100644 --- a/docs/seed_qr/README.md +++ b/docs/seed_qr/README.md @@ -70,7 +70,7 @@ It's important to note here that QR codes can encode data in a number of differe QR codes are typically used to encode a website url, in which case the "Alphanumeric" format has to be used (the encoded data can consist of upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and certain allowed symbols). -If you have a long url like `https://ohnoihavealongurl.com` (29 characters), the chart shows that it would not fit in a 21x21 QR code; its max capacity is 25 alphanumeric chars.

But it's within the 47-char capacity of the 25x25 size. ### Bit efficiency matters Notice that the "Numeric" column has greater capacity. This is because when you have fewer possible characters to encode, it takes less data to specify each one.
