The area code rules determine which dialing rules must be used for dialing a
number. The number must be dialed differently depending on how far the
number you wish to dial is from your own location. For example, a free call
must be dialed differently to a chargeable call.
The target number to be dialed decides which dialing rules are used. The
number's area code and the three digits which follow it are decisive.
