  2. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    v. t. e. In mathematics and computing, the hexadecimal (also base-16 or simply hex) numeral system is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent ...

  3. Comparison of Unicode encodings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Comparison_of_Unicode_encodings

    The UTF-5 proposal used a base 32 encoding, where Punycode is (among other things, and not exactly) a base 36 encoding. The name UTF-5 for a code unit of 5 bits is explained by the equation 2 5 = 32. [4] The UTF-6 proposal added a running length encoding to UTF-5, here 6 simply stands for UTF-5 plus 1. [5]

  4. Convolutional code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolutional_code

    Convolutional code with any code rate can be designed based on polynomial selection; [15] however, in practice, a puncturing procedure is often used to achieve the required code rate. Puncturing is a technique used to make a m/n rate code from a "basic" low-rate (e.g., 1/n) code. It is achieved by deleting of some bits in the encoder output.

  5. Half-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-precision_floating...

    In computing, half precision (sometimes called FP16 or float16) is a binary floating-point computer number format that occupies 16 bits (two bytes in modern computers) in computer memory. It is intended for storage of floating-point values in applications where higher precision is not essential, in particular image processing and neural ...

  6. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    Base64. In computer programming, Base64 is a group of binary-to-text encoding schemes that transforms binary data into a sequence of printable characters, limited to a set of 64 unique characters. More specifically, the source binary data is taken 6 bits at a time, then this group of 6 bits is mapped to one of 64 unique characters.

  7. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    t. e. In computer science, a for-loop or for loop is a control flow statement for specifying iteration. Specifically, a for-loop functions by running a section of code repeatedly until a certain condition has been satisfied. For-loops have two parts: a header and a body. The header defines the iteration and the body is the code that is executed ...

  8. SHA-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-1

    The first public collision was published on 23 February 2017. [ 2] SHA-1 is prone to length extension attacks. In cryptography, SHA-1 ( Secure Hash Algorithm 1) is a hash function which takes an input and produces a 160- bit (20- byte) hash value known as a message digest – typically rendered as 40 hexadecimal digits.

  9. Priority encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_encoder

    Priority encoders can be easily connected in arrays to make larger encoders, such as one 16-to-4 encoder made from six 4-to-2 priority encoders – four 4-to-2 encoders having the signal source connected to their inputs, and the two remaining encoders take the output of the first four as input.
