  2. Word (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_(computer_architecture)

    In computing, a word is any processor design's natural unit of data. A word is a fixed-sized datum handled as a unit by the instruction set or the hardware of the processor. The number of bits or digits [a] in a word (the word size, word width, or word length) is an important characteristic of any specific processor design or computer architecture.

  3. Letter frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency

    The California Job Case was a compartmentalized box for printing in the 19th century, sizes corresponding to the commonality of letters. The frequency of letters in text has been studied for use in cryptanalysis, and frequency analysis in particular, dating back to the Arab mathematician al-Kindi (c. AD 801–873 ), who formally developed the method (the ciphers breakable by this technique go ...

  4. Chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chart

    A data chart is a type of diagram or graph, that organizes and represents a set of numerical or qualitative data. Maps that are adorned with extra information ( map surround ) for a specific purpose are often known as charts, such as a nautical chart or aeronautical chart , typically spread over several map sheets .

  5. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    A pendulum with a period of 2.8 s and a frequency of 0.36 Hz. For cyclical phenomena such as oscillations, waves, or for examples of simple harmonic motion, the term frequency is defined as the number of cycles or repetitions per unit of time.

  6. Frequency counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_counter

    Most frequency counters work by using a counter, which accumulates the number of events occurring within a specific period of time.After a preset period known as the gate time (1 second, for example), the value in the counter is transferred to a display, and the counter is reset to zero.

  7. Zipf's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf's_law

    In many texts in human languages, word frequencies approximately follow a Zipf distribution with exponent s close to 1; that is, the most common word occurs about n times the n-th most common one. The actual rank-frequency plot of a natural language text deviates in some extent from the ideal Zipf distribution, especially at the two ends of the ...

  8. Frequency-shift keying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-shift_keying

    For basic data rate Bluetooth the minimum deviation is 115 kHz. A GFSK modulator differs from a simple frequency-shift keying modulator in that before the baseband waveform (with levels −1 and +1) goes into the FSK modulator, it passed through a Gaussian filter to make the transitions smoother to limit spectral width.

  9. Table (database) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(database)

    In a database, a table is a collection of related data organized in table format; consisting of columns and rows.. In relational databases, and flat file databases, a table is a set of data elements (values) using a model of vertical columns (identifiable by name) and horizontal rows, the cell being the unit where a row and column intersect.
