  2. Decimal degrees - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_degrees

    Decimal degrees (DD) is a notation for expressing latitude and longitude geographic coordinates as decimal fractions of a degree.DD are used in many geographic information systems (GIS), web mapping applications such as OpenStreetMap, and GPS devices.

  3. IT Grade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IT_Grade

    For a part dimensioned at 10 mm, IT14 allows for up to 0.36 mm of variation in size. As the IT grade number increases, the tolerances increase; similarly, for larger nominal sizes, the standard tolerances increase. For a part dimensioned at 100 mm, IT14 allows for up to 0.87 mm of variation in size.

  4. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    Young pines were found to have a form factor between 0.33 and 0.35, forest grown pines in the age class of 150 years or more had a form factor of between 0.36 and 0.44, and stocky old-growth outlier pines would on occasion achieve a form factor of between 0.45 and 0.47. The form factor concept is parallel to idea of percent cylinder occupation.

  5. Shannon coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_coding

    In the field of data compression, Shannon coding, named after its creator, Claude Shannon, is a lossless data compression technique for constructing a prefix code based on a set of symbols and their probabilities (estimated or measured).

  6. Blood alcohol content - Wikipedia

    Blood alcohol content (BAC), also called blood alcohol concentration or blood alcohol level, is a measurement of alcohol intoxication used for legal or medical purposes. [1] ...

  7. 36 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/36_(number)

    The truncated cube and the truncated octahedron are Archimedean solids with 36 edges. [9] The number of domino tilings of a 4×4 checkerboard is 36. [10] Since it is possible to find sequences of 36 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member, 36 is an ErdÅ‘s–Woods number. [11]

  8. Floating point operations per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_point_operations...

    The exponentiation inherent in floating-point computation assures a much larger dynamic range – the largest and smallest numbers that can be represented – which is especially important when processing data sets where some of the data may have extremely large range of numerical values or where the range may be unpredictable.

  9. International dollar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_dollar

    The international dollar (int'l dollar or intl dollar, symbols Int'l$., Intl$., Int$), also known as Geary–Khamis dollar (symbols G–K$ or GK$), is a hypothetical unit of currency that has the same purchasing power parity that the U.S. dollar had in the United States at a given point in time.
