  2. Algebraic notation (chess) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_notation_(chess)

    In standard (or short form) algebraic notation, each move of a piece is indicated by the piece's uppercase letter, plus the coordinates of the destination square. For example, Be5 (bishop moves to e5), Nf3 (knight moves to f3). For pawn moves, a letter indicating pawn is not used, only the destination square is given.

  3. Chess notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_notation

    Smith notation is a straightforward chess notation designed to be reversible and represent any move without ambiguity. The notation encodes the source square, destination square, and what piece was captured, if any. [12] Coordinate notation is similar to algebraic notation except that no abbreviation or symbol is used to show which piece is ...

  4. List of common coordinate transformations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_coordinate...

    Let (x, y, z) be the standard Cartesian coordinates, and (ρ, θ, φ) the spherical coordinates, with θ the angle measured away from the +Z axis (as , see conventions in spherical coordinates). As φ has a range of 360° the same considerations as in polar (2 dimensional) coordinates apply whenever an arctangent of it is taken. θ has a range ...

  5. ISO 6709 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_6709

    ISO 6709, Standard representation of geographic point location by coordinates, is the international standard for representation of latitude, longitude and altitude for geographic point locations. The first edition ( ISO 6709:1983 ) was developed by ISO/IEC JTC 1 /SC 32.

  6. Alphanumeric grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphanumeric_grid

    An alphanumeric grid (also known as atlas grid [1]) is a simple coordinate system on a grid in which each cell is identified by a combination of a letter and a number. [2]An advantage over numeric coordinates such as easting and northing, which use two numbers instead of a number and a letter to refer to a grid cell, is that there can be no confusion over which coordinate refers to which ...

  7. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    In the cylindrical coordinate system, a z-coordinate with the same meaning as in Cartesian coordinates is added to the r and θ polar coordinates giving a triple (r, θ, z). [8] Spherical coordinates take this a step further by converting the pair of cylindrical coordinates ( r , z ) to polar coordinates ( ρ , φ ) giving a triple ( ρ , θ ...

  8. 3-sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-sphere

    The four Euclidean coordinates for S 3 are redundant since they are subject to the condition that x 0 2 + x 1 2 + x 2 2 + x 3 2 = 1. As a 3-dimensional manifold one should be able to parameterize S 3 by three coordinates, just as one can parameterize the 2-sphere using two coordinates (such as latitude and longitude).

  9. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_of_axes_in_two...

    A point P has coordinates (x, y) with respect to the original system and coordinates (x′, y′) with respect to the new system. [1] In the new coordinate system, the point P will appear to have been rotated in the opposite direction, that is, clockwise through the angle . A rotation of axes in more than two dimensions is defined similarly.
