Dash
A dash is a punctuation mark, and is not to be confused with the hyphen, which has quite different uses.
Common dashes
Several forms of dashes exist, of which the most common are:
Hyphen-minus
''Main article: Hyphen''
The hyphen-minus is the ASCII character typically used as a hyphen, a minus sign, ''and'' a dash in ASCII computer files. Strictly speaking, it is not a dash at all; thus, careful typesetting (including with modern computer applications, such as word processors and HTML) usually uses the following proper dashes instead.
Figure dash
The figure dash is so named because it is the same width as a digit, at least in fonts with digits of equal width.
The figure dash is used when a dash must be used within numbers, for example with telephone numbers: ''6345789''. Note that this does not indicate a range (use an en dash for that), or function as the minus sign (which has its own glyph).
The figure dash is often unavailable; in this case, one may use a hyphen-minus instead. In Unicode, the figure dash is U+2012 (decimal 8210). In HTML, you must use the numeric forms ‒ or ‒ to type it; there is no equivalent HTML entity. In TeX, the standard fonts have no figure dash; however, the digits normally all have the same width as the en dash, so an en dash can be substituted in TeX.
En dash
The en dash is one en in width. By definition, this is by exactly half the width of an em dash.
The en dash is used to indicate a closed range, or a connection between two things of almost any kind: numbers, people, places, etc. For example:

The ''Guide for the Use of the International System of Units (SI)'' recommends that the word "to" be used instead of an en dash when
