An odd offset would cause a program check (unless the base register itself also contained an odd address)—since instructions had to be aligned on half-word boundaries to execute without a program or hardware interrupt. The previous example describes an indirect way to address to a memory location in the format of segment:offset.
The graph (bottom, in red) of the signed distance between the points on the xy plane (in blue) and a fixed disk (also represented on top, in gray) A more complicated set (top) and the graph of its signed distance function (bottom, in red).
An unpublished computational program written in Pascal called Abra inspired this open-source software. Abra was originally designed for physicists to compute problems present in quantum mechanics. Kespers Peeters then decided to write a similar program in C computing language rather than Pascal, which he renamed Cadabra. However, Cadabra has ...
In general, a distance matrix is a weighted adjacency matrix of some graph. In a network, a directed graph with weights assigned to the arcs, the distance between two nodes of the network can be defined as the minimum of the sums of the weights on the shortest paths joining the two nodes (where the number of steps in the path is bounded). [2]
A metric space defined over a set of points in terms of distances in a graph defined over the set is called a graph metric. The vertex set (of an undirected graph) and the distance function form a metric space, if and only if the graph is connected. The eccentricity ϵ(v) of a vertex v is the greatest distance between v and any other vertex; in ...
Where the terminology may be ambiguous, the graphs in which non-edges must be a non-unit distance apart may be called strict unit distance graphs [3] or faithful unit distance graphs. [2] The subgraphs of unit distance graphs are equivalently the graphs that can be drawn in the plane using only one edge length. [ 4 ]
An early graphing calculator was designed in 1921 by electrical engineer Edith Clarke. [1] [2] [3] The calculator was used to solve problems with electrical power line transmission. [4] Casio produced the first commercially available graphing calculator in 1985. Sharp produced its first graphing calculator in 1986, with Hewlett Packard ...
Offset curves are important, for example, in numerically controlled machining, where they describe, for example, the shape of the cut made by a round cutting tool of a two-axis machine. The shape of the cut is offset from the trajectory of the cutter by a constant distance in the direction normal to the cutter trajectory at every point. [6]
