1D Barcode
Barcode History
The barcode history start at began of 1948. With Bernard Silver, a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology in Philadelphia, the president of a local food chain asking one of the deans to undertake research to develop a system to automatically read product information during checkout. Silver told his friend Norman Joseph Woodland about the food chain president's request. The problem fascinated Woodland and he began to work on the problem. Resolving the issue start with perforate card like catalog system and management warehouse.
Barcode Principle
All bar code scanners work on the same basic principle. The scanner shines light onto the bar code, and then reads the light and dark spaces reflected back into the lens. Scanners vary according to light source and scanning technology, as well as size and portability.
Barcode Encoding Rule
There are many different bar code symbologies, or languages. Each symbology has its own rules for encoding characters (e.g., letter, number, punctuation), printing, decoding requirements, and error checking. Bar code symbologies differ both in the way they represent data and in the type of data they can encode: some encode numbers; others encode numbers, letters, and a few punctuation characters; still others offer encodation of the 128 or 256 ASCII character sets. Recently unveiled symbologies include options to encode characters in any language as well as specialized data types.

Barcode encoding rule and Barcode Rule Sorts
EAN A European Article Number (EAN) is a barcoding standard which is a superset of the original 12-digit Universal Product Code (UPC) system developed in North America . The EAN-13 barcode is defined by the standards organisation GS1 . It is also called a Japanese Article Number (JAN) in Japan . UPC, EAN, and JAN numbers are collectively called Global Trade Item Numbers (GTIN), though they can be expressed in different types of barcodes .
The EAN-13 barcodes are used worldwide for marking retail goods. The less commonly used EAN-8 barcodes are used also for marking retail goods; however, they are usually reserved for smaller items, for example confectionery .
UPC
The UPC encodes 12 decimal digits as SLLLLLLMRRRRRRE, where S (start) and E (end) are the bit pattern 101, M (middle) is the bit pattern 01010 (called guard bars), and each L (left) and R (right) are digits, each one represented by a seven-bit code. This is a total of 95 bits. The bit pattern for each numeral is designed to be as little like the others as possible, and to have no more than four 1s or 0s in order. Both are for reliability in scanning.
Code 39
Code 39 (also known as "USS Code 39", "Code 3/9", "Code 3 of 9", "USD-3", "Alpha39", "Type 39") is a barcode symbology that can encode uppercase letters (A through Z), digits (0 through 9) and a handful of special characters like the $ sign. The barcode itself does not contain a check digit (in contrast to—for instance— Code 128 ), but it can be considered self-checking by some, on the grounds that a single erroneously interpreted bar cannot generate another valid character. Possibly the most serious drawback of Code 39 is its low data density: It requires more space to encode data in Code 39 than, for example, in Code 128. This means that very small goods cannot be labeled with a Code 39 based barcode. However, Code 39 is still widely used and can be decoded with virtually any barcode reader .
Code128
Code 128 is a very high-density barcode symbology, used extensively world wide in shipping and packaging industries. GS1-128 (formerly known as UCC/EAN-128) is one of its variants. It is used for alphanumeric or numeric-only barcodes . It can encode all 128 characters of ASCII and is also capable of encoding two numbers into one character width, called double density. This feature is evidence of it being designed to reduce the amount of space the bar code occupies, to address the ever-increasing needs of item catalogs. Each printed character can have one of three different meanings, depending on which of three different character sets are employed. Code 128 is the major component of the labeling standard for GS1-128 (formerly known as UCC/EAN-128) , used as product identification for container and pallet levels of retail markets.
Interleaved 2-of-5 ( I2 of 5 )
Interleaved 2 of 5 is a continuous two-width barcode symbology encoding digits . It is used commercially on 135 film and on cartons of products, while the products inside are labeled with UPC or EAN . I2/5 encodes pairs of digits; the first digit is encoded in the five bars ("black lines"), while the second digit is encoded in the five spaces interleaved with them ("white lines").
Codabar
Codabar is a linear barcode symbology developed in 1972 by Pitney Bowes Corp. It is also known as Codeabar, Ames Code, NW-7, Monarch, Code 2 of 7, Rationalized Codabar, ANSI/AIM BC3-1995 or USD-4. Because Codabar is self-checking, most standards do not define a check digit . The variants of Codabar in commercial and public use will sometimes define a proprietary check digit. For instance in an all-numeric string, the check digit algorithm might double the odd digits, take modulo 9, sum the results with the even digits, and represent the total in modulo 10.

我心目中的胡桂-溫家寶爺爺
我心目中的胡桂係溫家寶爺爺, 記得第一次睇功夫熊貓時, 已被佢既3D視覺吸引, 主角熊貓, 狸貓師傅, 及其他角色都似層相識, 亦好似一般美國卡通冇咩特別, 無論性格刻劃同型態都平平無奇. 只有當中的長老-胡桂, 最令我屏息以待;全神貫注. 細看他像個智慧老人,神色自若,兩眼垂垂, 行動媛慢, 留意他的口(唔講野個時都好似食緊野) 但係往往一出口就有言輕意重, 一矢中的. 言語中隱藏深奧意義. 人世間既種種是非經過而集思廣益. 吐出字字鏗鏘, 句句妙絕既言語.
我即時覺得他就是我們中國的寶貴長者溫爺爺, 須然未有咁老, 不過係我地中國人心目中, 佢同胡桂一樣 處事公正, 有深度, 有個性觀點, 體察人民, 愛護人民....記得四川地震時不到3日已到達慰勉災民要"忍耐" "溫爺爺會照顧你們, 國家會照顧你們" 時的影像, 令我也流了不小淚.
想起中國自明清以來近幾百年, 能有此等仁愛既總理, 確實係我地既福氣. 我們香港人也總算有個老家, 有長輩提點, 咩事都唔駛擔心. 仲有國, 有個家係度.

Your mind is like this water，my friend，when it is agitated，it becomes difficult to see，but if you allow it to settle，the answer becomes clear。
3、 邊有咁多巧合丫… There are no accidents .
4、烏龜：是啊不過無論你做了什麼，那個種子還是會長成桃樹，你可能想要蘋果或桔子，可你只能得到桃子，那個種子還是會長成桃樹。
Yes，but no matter what you do，That seed will grow to be a peach tree.You may wish for an Apple or an orange,But you will get a peach
