19091959

19091959 is an eight-digit numeric string that is most commonly interpreted as a date in day-month-year format, i.e., 19 September 1959. When separators are added or a different regional convention is applied, it could also be read as 19/09/1959 or, in year-first notation with no separators, as 1959-09-19 in some systems. Without specific context, the sequence remains ambiguous and can function as a date stamp, a filename component, or an identifier in data records.

In computing and data management, such compact eight-digit sequences are used to encode dates for sorting and archival purposes. They allow lexicographic ordering by year, month, and day when parsed consistently, but they can cause misinterpretation if regional date formats are not defined or if separators are removed.

Historically, the year 1959 was marked by several global developments within the late 1950s context of the Cold War and postwar decolonization. Notable year-wide milestones included Alaska’s admission as a U.S. state and the commercial introduction of the Barbie doll. While these events are not tied to the exact day represented by 19091959, they illustrate the broader temporal setting associated with the year.
