  2. Entrance length (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entrance_length_(fluid...

    The thermal entrance length for a fluid with a Prandtl number greater than one will be longer than the hydrodynamic entrance length, and shorter if the Prandtl number is less than one. For example, molten sodium has a low Prandtl number of 0.004, [12] so the thermal entrance length will be significantly shorter than the hydraulic entrance length.

  3. Large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_numbers

    Thus the "order of magnitude" of a number (on a larger scale than usually meant), can be characterized by the number of times (n) one has to take the to get a number between 1 and 10. Thus, the number is between 10 ↑ ↑ n {\displaystyle 10\uparrow \uparrow n} and 10 ↑ ↑ ( n + 1 ) {\displaystyle 10\uparrow \uparrow (n+1)} .

  4. Cyclomatic complexity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclomatic_complexity

    McCabe showed that the cyclomatic complexity of a structured program with only one entry point and one exit point is equal to the number of decision points ("if" statements or conditional loops) contained in that program plus one. This is true only for decision points counted at the lowest, machine-level instructions. [4]

  5. Entry point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entry_point

    In most of today's popular programming languages and operating systems, a computer program usually only has a single entry point.. In C, C++, D, Zig, Rust and Kotlin programs this is a function named main; in Java it is a static method named main (although the class must be specified at the invocation time), and in C# it is a static method named Main.

  6. Hierarchy of hazard controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_of_hazard_controls

    Hierarchy of hazard control is a system used in industry to prioritize possible interventions to minimize or eliminate exposure to hazards. [a] It is a widely accepted system promoted by numerous safety organizations.

  7. Sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence

    In mathematics, a sequence is an enumerated collection of objects in which repetitions are allowed and order matters. Like a set, it contains members (also called elements, or terms). The number of elements (possibly infinite) is called the length of the sequence. Unlike a set, the same elements can appear multiple times at different positions ...

  8. Protection ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protection_ring

    There are 4 privilege levels ranging from 0 which is the most privileged, to 3 which is least privileged. Most modern operating systems use level 0 for the kernel/executive, and use level 3 for application programs. Any resource available to level n is also available to levels 0 to n, so the privilege levels are rings.

  9. Loop unrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_unrolling

    The instructions are in order of decreasing offset, so the last * element in the set is moved first. ALL MVC 15*256(100,R2),15*256(R1) Move 100 bytes of 16th entry from * array 1 to array 2 (with * drop-through).
