In the Zork series of games, the Great Underground Empire has its own system of measurements, the most frequently referenced of which is the bloit. Defined as the distance the king's favorite pet can run in one hour (spoofing a popular legend about the history of the foot), the length of the bloit varies dramatically, but the one canonical conversion to real-world units puts it at ...
Disintegrations per minute (dpm) and disintegrations per second (dps) are measures of the activity of the source of radioactivity. The SI unit of radioactivity, the becquerel (Bq), is equivalent to one disintegration per second. This unit should not be confused with cps, which is the number of counts received by an instrument from the source.
Also isometric graphics. Graphic rendering technique of three-dimensional objects set in a two-dimensional plane of movement. Often includes games where some objects are still rendered as sprites. 360 no-scope A 360 no-scope usually refers to a trick shot in a first or third-person shooter video game in which one player kills another with a sniper rifle by first spinning a full circle and then ...
A banana contains naturally occurring radioactive material in the form of potassium-40.. Banana equivalent dose (BED) is an informal unit of measurement of ionizing radiation exposure, intended as a general educational example to compare a dose of radioactivity to the dose one is exposed to by eating one average-sized banana.
0x is a prefix in many high-level languages used to indicate a hexadecimal literal. 10 C in hexadecimal is equivalent to 16 12 in decimal, which equals 281,474,976,710,656, the number of years passed in the story since 1988.
This process took a total of 0.02 seconds of CPU time (User + System). The reported System time is 0.00 seconds, indicating that the amount of System time used was less than the printed resolution of 0.01 seconds. Elapsed real time was 0.08 seconds. The following is the source code of the application nextPrimeNumber which was used in the above ...
Delta time or delta timing is a concept used amongst programmers in relation to hardware and network responsiveness. [1] In graphics programming, the term is usually used for variably updating scenery based on the elapsed time since the game last updated, [2] (i.e. the previous "frame") which will vary depending on the speed of the computer, and how much work needs to be done in the program at ...
Mark Glickman created the Glicko rating system in 1995 as an improvement on the Elo rating system. [1]Both the Glicko and Glicko-2 rating systems are under public domain and have been implemented on game servers online like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Team Fortress 2, [2] Dota 2, [3] Guild Wars 2, [4] Splatoon 2, [5] Online-go.com, [6] Lichess and Chess.com.
