Names and Numbers of the Notes in the Hebrew

I have Suzanne Haik-Vantoura's book, The Music of the Bible Revealed, on inter-library-loan, the American edition along with a useful post-face (the opposite of a pre-face) by Jonathan Wheeler.

In this post-face, he associates each of the names of the signs for the te'amim with a verse where the root word is used. SHV describes how she at first ignored the meaning of the names but later came to recognize them as a clue to her deciphering of the note values of the signs. In a series of posts, I will explore these names and what the text of the Psalms (or other book) might teach us about the music.

My own need was to find the decimal value of the signs so I can use them in extended html - making them accessible to copy and paste operations in order to correct the text I have available to me.  The names and decimal Unicode values are below. Note how random the sequence is.  There are several doubles, allowing e.g. an ornament to be placed over the left or right half of the syllable. This is said to have musical significance as well - but let me consider the rules of transcription more before I attempt an explanation.
