  2. Asymptotic decider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_Decider

    In scientific visualization the asymptotic decider is an algorithm developed by Nielson and Hamann in 1991 that creates isosurfaces from a given scalar field. It was proposed as an improvement to the marching cubes algorithm, which can produce some "bad" topology, [1] but can also be considered an algorithm in its own right.

  3. Most vexing parse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_vexing_parse

    Line 2 above is ambiguous. One possible interpretation is to declare a variable i with initial value produced by converting my_dbl to an int . However, C allows superfluous parentheses around function parameter declarations; in this case, the declaration of i is instead a function declaration equivalent to the following:

  4. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  5. Dangling else - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_else

    The dangling else is a problem in programming of parser generators in which an optional else clause in an if–then(–else) statement results in nested conditionals being ambiguous. Formally, the reference context-free grammar of the language is ambiguous , meaning there is more than one correct parse tree .

  6. Law of sines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_sines

    In trigonometry, the law of sines, sine law, sine formula, or sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of any triangle to the sines of its angles. According to the law, ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ =, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and α, β, and γ are the opposite angles (see figure 2), while R is the radius of the triangle's circumcircle.

  7. Congruence (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congruence_(geometry)

    In many cases it is sufficient to establish the equality of three corresponding parts and use one of the following results to deduce the congruence of the two triangles. Determining congruence The shape of a triangle is determined up to congruence by specifying two sides and the angle between them (SAS), two angles and the side between them ...

  8. Undecidable problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undecidable_problem

    A Diophantine equation is a more general case of Fermat's Last Theorem; we seek the integer roots of a polynomial in any number of variables with integer coefficients. Since we have only one equation but n variables, infinitely many solutions exist (and are easy to find) in the complex plane ; however, the problem becomes impossible if ...

  9. Dative shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dative_shift

    In (25a), the example shows that the sentence appears to be ambiguous when the quantifier with the dative case precedes the quantifier with the accusative case, but not vice versa. In fact, (25b) helps to demonstrate that the goal phrase which is located at its base-generated position solves the ambiguity problem by participating in the scope ...
