If c = 0, the generator is often called a multiplicative congruential generator (MCG), or Lehmer RNG. If c ≠ 0, the method is called a mixed congruential generator. [1]: 4- When c ≠ 0, a mathematician would call the recurrence an affine transformation, not a linear one, but the misnomer is well-established in computer science. [2]: 1
Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...
ANSI B94.11M-1979 sets size standards for jobber-length straight-shank twist drill bits from 1/64 inch through 1 inch in 1/64 inch increments. For Morse taper -shank drill bits, the standard continues in 1/64 inch increments up to 1¾ inch, then 1/32 inch increments up to 2¼ inch, 1/16 inch increments up to 3 inches, 1/8 inch increments up to ...
Here we can show how to convert a base-10 real number into an IEEE 754 binary32 format using the following outline: Consider a real number with an integer and a fraction part such as 12.375; Convert and normalize the integer part into binary; Convert the fraction part using the following technique as shown here
The .38-44 revolvers were made by using a .44 Special size gun with the barrel bored to accept .357-caliber bullets (the true bullet diameter of the .38 Special) and the cylinder bored to accept .3801–.3809-inch-diameter (9.65–9.67 mm) cartridges (where the name "38 Special" originated). Since the frame, cylinder, and barrel were much ...
The .375 H&H Magnum, also known as .375 Holland & Holland Magnum, is a medium-bore rifle cartridge introduced in 1912 by London based gunmaker Holland & Holland. [2] The .375 H&H cartridge featured a belt to ensure the correct headspace, which otherwise might be unreliable, given the narrow shoulder of the cartridge case. [3]
The muzzle velocity advantage can allow rifles chambered in .375 Ruger to use 20 inch barrels and still match the ballistics of the .375 H&H Magnum with a 26 inch barrel. Combined with the fact that the .375 Ruger fits in a shorter action, it allows hunters to use rifles that are shorter, lighter, handier and cheaper than muzzle velocity wise ...
The .375 Winchester / 9.5x51mmR is a modernized version of the .38-55 Winchester, a black powder cartridge from 1884. It was introduced in 1978 along with the Winchester Model 94 “Big Bore” lever action rifle, which was in production from 1978 until 1986.
