To make notation easier, TAMNAMS makes the following modifications to UDP notation:

* The UDP for multi-period mosses may be written as ''u|d''(''p'') rather than ''up|dp''(''p''). This is because the period already appears in both the quantity of bright (''u times p'') and dark (''d times p'') generators, so omitting the ''p'' term makes the notation less redundant. In contexts where it doesn't cause confusion, the notation can be simplified further to ''u|d.''

* The UDP for the mode of a multi-period mosses may be written as ''u|d''(''p'') rather than ''up|dp''(''p''). This is because the period already appears in both the quantity of bright (''u times p'') and dark (''d times p'') generators, so omitting the ''p'' term makes the notation less redundant. In contexts where it doesn't cause confusion, the notation can be simplified further to ''u|d.''

* The UDP for a mode may be shortened to "u|" under the reasoning that omitting the ''d'' term, which can be inferred by the ''u'' term, makes the notation less redundant. For example, "5L 3s 5|", which refers to LsLLsLLs, is read as "5 ell 3 ess 5 pipe".

* The UDP for a mode, single-period or multi-period, may be shortened to "u|" under the reasoning that omitting the ''d'' term, which can be inferred by the ''u'' term, makes the notation less redundant. For example, "5L 3s 5|", which refers to LsLLsLLs, is read as "5 ell 3 ess 5 pipe".

** The shortened notation of "u|" is sufficient in most cases, but in situations where it makes more sense to think in terms of the dark generator, such as with a mos whose dark generator is the bright generator of a related mos, the notation is instead "|d".
