is being
explained
here?
X is a symbol indicating that a control activates or
deactivates a particular device. It incorporates line and
circle figures, with the arrangement informed by the
function of the control.
X was the result of the logical evolution of a simple user
interface, with most early power controls being simple
switches that were toggled between two states
demarcated by the words On and Off. As technology
became more ubiquitous though, the English words
were replaced by the universal numeral symbols 1 and 0
to bypass any possible language barriers.These symbols
were later superimposed to form the X symbol which is
universally recognized.
