The CKC Chinese Input System uses a maximum of 4 digits ("0" - "9") to represent a Chinese character. All possible shapes of strokes that forms any given Chinese character are classified into 10 groups, each represented by one of the ten possible digits 0-9. Chinese characters can then be input by following the order in which the strokes are identified at the 4 corners of the character. As a result of this simplicity in coding using the ten numeric digits, users typically need to use only a numeric keypad to input Chinese.

Implementations for both Traditional and Simplified Chinese are available though the coding principle applies to both. In other words, users only need to be trained once and the skill can be applied equally well to both Traditional and Simplified Chinese version of the CKC Input System.

Training courses on the CKC Chinese Input System are provided by training centres in http://www.ckcitlang.net/ CKC Centre for the Development of Information Technology for Chinese Language Teaching of http://www.hkied.edu.hk/ The Hong Kong Institute of Education, http://www.gockc.net/ IVE Haking Wong and http://www.chineseedu.hku.hk/CKC/CKClab/index.htm of http://www.hku.edu.hk/ Hong Kong University


The mapping between groups of stokes and their corresponding digits 0-9 can be described by the following :

The software can be downloaded from http://www.ckcsys.com.hk/ The CKC Chinese Input System web site and can be run on the Microsoft Windows environment. Other platforms such as Linux, Palm and Pocket PC are under development.
