  2. Polar diagram (sailing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_diagram_(sailing)

    A polar diagram, or polar plot, is a graph that shows a sailboat's potential speed over a range of wind speeds and relative wind angles. [1] It normally consists of the right side of a line chart with the radius representing the yacht speed and the angle representing the wind direction blowing from top to bottom. Several lines are normally ...

  3. Polar diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_diagram

    A polar diagram could refer to: Polar area diagram, a type of pie chart; Radiation pattern, in antenna theory; A diagram based on polar coordinates; Spherical coordinate system, the three-dimensional form of a polar response curve; In sailing, a Polar diagram is a graph that shows a sailing boats potential wind speed over a range of wind and ...

  4. Polar coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinate_system

    the point's direction from the pole relative to the direction of the polar axis, a ray drawn from the pole. The distance from the pole is called the radial coordinate, radial distance or simply radius, and the angle is called the angular coordinate, polar angle, or azimuth. [1] The pole is analogous to the origin in a Cartesian coordinate system.

  6. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.

  7. Radar chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart

    The radar chart is a chart and/or plot that consists of a sequence of equi-angular spokes, called radii, with each spoke representing one of the variables. The data length of a spoke is proportional to the magnitude of the variable for the data point relative to the maximum magnitude of the variable across all data points.

  8. Polar curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_curve

    The p-th polar of a C for a natural number p is defined as Δ Q p f(x, y, z) = 0. This is a curve of degree n−p. When p is n−1 the p-th polar is a line called the polar line of C with respect to Q. Similarly, when p is n−2 the curve is called the polar conic of C.

  9. Bilinear interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilinear_interpolation

    Example of bilinear interpolation on the unit square with the z values 0, 1, 1 and 0.5 as indicated. Interpolated values in between represented by color. In mathematics, bilinear interpolation is a method for interpolating functions of two variables (e.g., x and y) using repeated linear interpolation.
