Do you understand bar-coding

[reminder]

Does anyone understand how bar coding works. I am just trying to understand how they work.

[{I}{K}{E}]

At the supermarket, the barcode is telling the store inventory system that the product you are buying has reached the checkout stand and is being transferred out of inventory. In a sense, the barcode is a tool for tracking the location of something, whether it is a can of soup, or a freight car.

I did my own search and read some info on bar codes, but this the best guide. thanks darthins....

[reminder]

thanks everyone for hijacking my post.

So basically, I can use a scanner to read a bar code. Once I have captured a bar code, I can manipulate it in any way I like. Am I correct??

Do I need a special software to read / capture the bar-code or just a simple scanner?

I'm thinking of getting a tattoo of a bar code across my forehead.

Would be a great decoy when stealing library books and cookies.
