[1] Besides the 3½-inch and 5¼-inch formats used in IBM PC compatible systems, or the 8-inch format that preceded them, many proprietary floppy disk formats were developed, either using a different disk design or special layout and ...

    By 1988, the 3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch was outselling the 5 + 1 ⁄ 4-inch. [69] In South Africa, the 3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch format was generally called a stiffy disk, to distinguish it from the flexible 5 + 1 ⁄ 4-inch format.

  9. Bracket (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bracket_(mathematics)

    Terms inside the bracket are evaluated first; hence 2×(3 + 4) is 14, 20 ÷ (5(1 + 1)) is 2 and (2×3) + 4 is 10. This notation is extended to cover more general algebra involving variables: for example (x + y) × (x − y). Square brackets are also often used in place of a second set of parentheses when they are nested—so as to provide a ...
