  2. Minkowski addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_addition

    The Minkowski difference (also Minkowski subtraction, Minkowski decomposition, or geometric difference) [1] is the corresponding inverse, where () produces a set that could be summed with B to recover A. This is defined as the complement of the Minkowski sum of the complement of A with the reflection of B about the origin. [2]

  3. Blend modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blend_modes

    Dodge is applied when the value on the top layer is lighter than middle gray, and burn applies when the top layer value is darker. The calculation simplifies to the sum of the bottom layer and twice the top layer, subtract 1. This mode decreases the contrast. Subtract: this blend mode sums the value in the two layers and subtracts 1. Unlike ...

    Edge, a 1-dimensional element; Face, a 2-dimensional element; Cell, a 3-dimensional element; Hypercell or Teron, a 4-dimensional element; Facet, an (n-1)-dimensional element; Ridge, an (n-2)-dimensional element; Peak, an (n-3)-dimensional element; For example, in a polyhedron (3-dimensional polytope), a face is a facet, an edge is a ridge, and ...

  6. Constructive solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_solid_geometry

    [1] A convenient property of CSG shapes is that it is easy to classify arbitrary points as being either inside or outside the shape created by CSG. The point is simply classified against all the underlying primitives and the resulting boolean expression is evaluated. [6] This is a desirable quality for some applications such as ray tracing. [6]

  7. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculation

    Observe that there is a pattern in the rightmost digit: adding and subtracting with 1 or 3. Starting from zero: 0 3 = 0; 1 3 = 1 up 1; 2 3 = 8 down 3; 3 3 = 27 down 1; 4 3 = 64 down 3; 5 3 = 125 up 1; 6 3 = 216 up 1; 7 3 = 343 down 3; 8 3 = 512 down 1; 9 3 = 729 down 3; 10 3 = 1000 up 1; There are two steps to extracting the cube root from the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  9. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    For example, the range 1 to 10 is a single decade, and the range from 10 to 100 is another decade. Thus, single-decade scales (named C and D) range from 1 to 10 across the entire length of the slide rule, while double-decade scales (named A and B) range from 1 to 100 over the length of the slide rule.
