In the Romance languages, the minuscule form of V was a rounded <i>u</i>; from this was derived a rounded capital U for the vowel in the 16th century, while a new, pointed minuscule <i>v</i> was derived from V for the consonant. In the case of I, a word-final <a href="/wiki/Swash_(typography)" title="Swash (typography)">swash</a> form, <i>j</i>, came to be used for the consonant, with the un-swashed form restricted to vowel use. Such conventions were erratic for centuries. J was introduced into English for the consonant in the 17th century (it had been rare as a vowel), but it was not universally considered a distinct letter in the alphabetic order until the 19th century. </p><p>By the 1960s, it became apparent to the computer and <a href="/wiki/Telecommunication" class="mw-redirect" title="Telecommunication">telecommunications</a> industries in the <a href="/wiki/First_World" title="First World">First World</a> that a non-proprietary method of encoding characters was needed. The <a href="/wiki/International_Organization_for_Standardization" title="International Organization for Standardization">International Organization for Standardization</a> (ISO) encapsulated the Latin alphabet in their (<a href="/wiki/ISO/IEC_646" title="ISO/IEC 646">ISO/IEC 646</a>) standard. To achieve widespread acceptance, this encapsulation was based on popular usage. As the United States held a preeminent position in both industries during the 1960s, the standard was based on the already published <i>American Standard Code for Information Interchange</i>, better known as <a href="/wiki/ASCII" title="ASCII">ASCII</a>, which included in the <a href="/wiki/Character_encoding" title="Character encoding">character set</a> the 26 × 2 (uppercase and lowercase) letters of the <a href="/wiki/English_alphabet" title="English alphabet">English alphabet</a>.
