context_page_description: Danish orthography is the system used to write the Danish language. The oldest preserved examples of written Danish are in the Runic alphabet, but by the end of the High Middle Ages the Runes had mostly been replaced by the Latin letters.
  Danish currently uses a 29-letter Latin-script alphabet, identical to the Norwegian alphabet.
context_section_description: In computing, several different coding standards have existed for this alphabet:
  DS 2089, later established in international standard ISO 646
  IBM PC code page 865
  ISO 8859-1
  Unicode
