However, the capacity was also quoted "1.2 MB", [41] which was a hybrid decimal and binary notation, since the "M" meant 1000 × 1024. The precise value was 1.2288 MB (decimal) or 1.171 875 MiB (binary). The 5.25-inch Apple Disk II had 256 bytes per sector, 13 sectors per track, 35 tracks per side, or a total capacity of 116 480 bytes.
The only known powers of 2 with all digits even are 2^1 = 2, 2^2 = 4, 2^3 = 8, 2^6 = 64 and 2^11 = 2048. [11] The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2^4 = 16, 2^5 = 32 and 2^9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2^n should have n of at least 6 digits.
Nearly all modern CPUs represent numbers in binary form, with each digit being represented by some two-valued physical quantity such as a "high" or "low" voltage. [g] A six-bit word containing the binary encoded representation of decimal value 40. Most modern CPUs employ word sizes that are a power of two, for example 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits.
The generator polynomial specified for the (26,19,2) code, is: = + + + + + + +, which may also be written in the form of a matrix of decimal coefficients: [1 127 122 154 164 11 68 117] The 17-byte long message "www.wikipedia.org" as hexadecimal coefficients (ASCII values), denoted by M1 through M17 is:
In the widely accepted ΛCDM cosmological model, dark matter accounts for about 25.8% ± 1.1% of the mass and energy in the universe while about 69.2% ± 1.2% is dark energy, a mysterious form of energy responsible for the acceleration of the expansion of the universe. [17] Ordinary ('baryonic') matter therefore composes only 4.84% ± 0.1% of ...
Isaac Asimov (/ ˈ æ z ɪ m ɒ v / AZ-ih-mov; [b] c. January 2, 1920 [a] – April 6, 1992) was an American writer and professor of biochemistry at Boston University.During his lifetime, Asimov was considered one of the "Big Three" science fiction writers, along with Robert A. Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke. [2]
[51] [52] While Python 2.7 and older versions are officially unsupported, a different unofficial Python implementation, PyPy, continues to support Python 2, i.e. "2.7.18+" (plus 3.10), with the plus meaning (at least some) "backported security updates". [53] Python 3.0 was released on 3 December 2008, with some new semantics and changed syntax.
Compared to B-DNA, the A-DNA form is a wider right-handed spiral, with a shallow, wide minor groove and a narrower, deeper major groove. The A form occurs under non-physiological conditions in partly dehydrated samples of DNA, while in the cell it may be produced in hybrid pairings of DNA and RNA strands, and in enzyme-DNA complexes.
