  2. Rule of three (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(aeronautics)

    In aviation, the rule of three or "3:1 rule of descent" is a rule of thumb that 3 nautical miles (5.6 km) of travel should be allowed for every 1,000 feet (300 m) of descent. [1] [2] For example, a descent from flight level 350 would require approximately 35x3=105 nautical miles. This would have to be adjusted for headwind or tailwind, [1] and ...

  3. List of arbitrary-precision arithmetic software - Wikipedia

    Programming languages that support arbitrary precision computations, either built-in, or in the standard library of the language: Ada: the upcoming Ada 202x revision adds the Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Integers and Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Reals packages to the standard library, providing arbitrary precision integers and real numbers.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three

    Rule of three (aeronautics), a rule of descent in aviation; Rule of three (C++ programming), a rule of thumb about class method definitions; Rule of three (computer programming), a rule of thumb about code refactoring; Rule of three (hematology), a rule of thumb to check if blood count results are correct

  5. Rule of three (C++ programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(C++...

    The rule of three (also known as the law of the big three or the big three) is a rule of thumb in C++ (prior to C++11) that claims that if a class defines any of the following then it should probably explicitly define all three: [1] destructor; copy constructor; copy assignment operator; These three functions are special member functions. If ...

  6. Simpson's rules (ship stability) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson's_rules_(ship...

    For instance, in the latter, Simpson's 3rd rule is used to find the volume between two co-ordinates. To calculate the entire area / volume, Simpson's first rule is used. [7] Simpson's rules are used by a ship's officers to check that the area under the ship's GZ curve complies with IMO stability criteria.

  7. Coordinate descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_descent

    Coordinate descent is an optimization algorithm that successively minimizes along coordinate directions to find the minimum of a function.At each iteration, the algorithm determines a coordinate or coordinate block via a coordinate selection rule, then exactly or inexactly minimizes over the corresponding coordinate hyperplane while fixing all other coordinates or coordinate blocks.

  8. Operator-precedence parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator-precedence_parser

    GCC's C and C++ parsers, which are hand-coded recursive descent parsers, are both sped up by an operator-precedence parser that can quickly examine arithmetic expressions. Operator-precedence parsers are also embedded within compiler-compiler-generated parsers to noticeably speed up the recursive descent approach to expression parsing. [1]

  9. μ-law algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Μ-law_algorithm

    G.711 is unclear about how to code the values at the limit of a range (e.g. whether +31 codes to 0xEF or 0xF0). [citation needed] However, G.191 provides example code in the C language for a μ-law encoder. [5] The difference between the positive and negative ranges, e.g. the negative range corresponding to +30 to +1 is −31 to −2.
