Are the barcodes usually a collection of integers, characters, special
characters or what?

And, by the way, do you know if there exist a magnetic card scanner
that plugs in to the PS/2?  And if yes, which information would get
from such a card?  Just a number, or are there other possibilities?

Thanks.
