Blackboard bold is probably the most common way of denoting the "standard" number sets: the natural numbers, the integers and so on. In AMS-LaTeX, you use the \mathbb{...}
command to obtain them; the ConTeXt way is the \blackboard{...}
command. Also, the following commands are defined:
\naturalnumbers \integers \rationals \reals \complexes, \primes \blackboard{F} \blackboard{O}
