  2. Turtle graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_graphics

    Turtle graphics are often associated with the Logo programming language. [2] Seymour Papert added support for turtle graphics to Logo in the late 1960s to support his version of the turtle robot, a simple robot controlled from the user's workstation that is designed to carry out the drawing functions assigned to it using a small retractable pen set into or attached to the robot's body.

  3. Clock angle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_angle_problem

    Clock angle problems relate two different measurements: angles and time. The angle is typically measured in degrees from the mark of number 12 clockwise. The time is usually based on a 12-hour clock. A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees per minute.

  4. Logo (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logo_(programming_language)

    The first working Logo turtle robot was created in 1969. A display turtle preceded the physical floor turtle. Modern Logo has not changed very much from the basic concepts predating the first turtle. The first turtle was a tethered floor roamer, not radio-controlled or wireless. At BBN Paul Wexelblat developed a turtle named Irving that had ...

  5. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a rotation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x′y′-Cartesian coordinate system in which the origin is kept fixed and the x′ and y′ axes are obtained by rotating the x and y axes counterclockwise through an angle .

  6. Go (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(programming_language)

    Static typing and run-time efficiency (like C) Readability and usability (like Python) [24] High-performance networking and multiprocessing; Its designers were primarily motivated by their shared dislike of C++. [25] [26] [27] Go was publicly announced in November 2009, [28] and version 1.0 was released in March 2012.

  7. Software package metrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_package_metrics

    Instability (I): The ratio of efferent coupling (Ce) to total coupling (Ce + Ca) such that I = Ce / (Ce + Ca). This metric is an indicator of the package's resilience to change. The range for this metric is 0 to 1, with I=0 indicating a completely stable package and I=1 indicating a completely unstable package.

  8. Sunrise equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunrise_equation

    C is the Equation of the center value needed to calculate lambda (see next equation). 1.9148 is the coefficient of the Equation of the Center for the planet the observer is on (in this case, Earth) Ecliptic longitude

  9. Determination of the day of the week - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determination_of_the_day...

    The basic approach of nearly all of the methods to calculate the day of the week begins by starting from an "anchor date": a known pair (such as 1 January 1800 as a Wednesday), determining the number of days between the known day and the day that you are trying to determine, and using arithmetic modulo 7 to find a new numerical day of the week.
