Post tips for Befunge code golf here!

This is based on a type of question I used to see on CGCC, where people would post tips for golfing in various languages. They happened to be quite helpful, so I thought it'd be nice to bring them back.

Golfing numbers

Numbers above 15 and below zero take more than one byte to create. Here's a table of numbers up to 100 (Not including negatives yet)

Table for '98

NOTE: For numbers that are also valid ASCII characters, it can be smaller to use " " to insert them. This isn't included in the table, as you can easily work this out yourself. 0..31 and 127 a hex editor to insert this way.

You can also do "n" where n has the char code you want. This fails for 34 ("), and starts to take up more bytes above 128, but is usually more golfy than trying to work it out arithmetically
