Circular shifts are used often in cryptography in order to permute bit sequences. Unfortunately, many programming languages, including C, do not have operators or standard functions for circular shifting, even though virtually all processors have bitwise operation instructions for it (e.g. Intel x86 has ROL and ROR).
The term transmutation dates back to alchemy.Alchemists pursued the philosopher's stone, capable of chrysopoeia – the transformation of base metals into gold. [3] While alchemists often understood chrysopoeia as a metaphor for a mystical or religious process, some practitioners adopted a literal interpretation and tried to make gold through physical experimentation.
C mathematical operations are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing basic mathematical functions. [1] [2] All functions use floating-point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different, albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions.
Dimensional transmutation, a physical mechanism providing a linkage between a dimensionless parameter and a dimensionful parameter; Nuclear transmutation, the conversion of a chemical element or isotope into another chemical element or isotope
For example, adding “SHAPE is CIRCLE” to “COLOR is RED,” creates a vector that represents a red circle. Permutation rearranges the vector elements. For example, permuting a three-dimensional vector with values labeled x , y and z , can interchange x to y , y to z , and z to x .
A circle of radius 23 drawn by the Bresenham algorithm. In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]
for integers n ≥ 0, where C is a circle of radius r and centred at 0, for any r with 0 < r < 1; in other words, is a contour integral, integrated over the circle described traversed once anticlockwise. We would like to take r = 1 directly, that is, to use the unit circle contour.
Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport (MCNP) [2] is a general-purpose, continuous-energy, generalized-geometry, time-dependent, Monte Carlo radiation transport code designed to track many particle types over broad ranges of energies and is developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory.
