The invention discloses a Chinese character digital coding input method. Five basic starting strokes, that is, horizontal stroke, vertical stroke, left falling stroke, dot stroke and turning stroke are normalized into four strokes, that is, the horizontal stroke, the vertical stroke, the left falling stroke and the right falling stroke (dot stroke), and two of the four basic stroke codes are combined to form 16 starting two-stroke combined stroke codes which are represented by English letters, number of ones places of the 'horizontal stroke' of the four strokes of the Chinese characters is represented by Arabic numerals 0-9, and tens place is represented by W; number of the ones place of the 'vertical stroke' is represented by the Arabic numerals 0-9, and the tens place is represented by E; number of the ones place of the 'left falling stroke' is represented by the Arabic numerals 0-9, and the tens place is represented by I; number of the ones place of the 'right falling stroke' is represented by the Arabic numerals 0-9, and the tens place is represented by 0; the numbers of the stroke number form a group of Arabic numerals codes in the order of the horizontal stroke, the verticalstroke, the left falling stroke and the right falling stroke from the right to the left, when the Chinese characters are inputted through a computer, the memory is small, the method is easy to be learned and used, the input rate is high, and the coincident code rate is low. The method is also applicable to Chinese character computer input all over the world, and also applicable to computer input of traditional Chinese characters.
