  2. Array slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_slicing

    Reducing the range of any index to a single value effectively eliminates that index. This feature can be used, for example, to extract one-dimensional slices (vectors: in 3D, rows, columns, and tubes [1]) or two-dimensional slices (rectangular matrices) from a three-dimensional array. However, since the range can be specified at run-time, type ...

  3. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    The resulting object is called an object copy or simply copy of the original object. Copying is basic but has subtleties and can have significant overhead. There are several ways to copy an object, most commonly by a copy constructor or cloning. Copying is done mostly so the copy can be modified or moved, or the current value preserved.

  4. Slice sampling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slice_sampling

    Slice sampling is a type of Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for pseudo-random number sampling, i.e. for drawing random samples from a statistical distribution.The method is based on the observation that to sample a random variable one can sample uniformly from the region under the graph of its density function.

  5. Cut, copy, and paste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut,_copy,_and_paste

    The inversion from verb—object to object—verb on which copy and paste are based, where the user selects the object to be operated before initiating the operation, was an innovation crucial for the success of the desktop metaphor as it allowed copy and move operations based on direct manipulation.

    cluster heat map: where magnitudes are laid out into a matrix of fixed cell size whose rows and columns are categorical data. For example, the graph to the right. spatial heat map: where no matrix of fixed cell size for example a heat-map. For example, a heat map showing population densities displayed on a geographical map; Stripe graphic ...

  7. Instruction set architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_set_architecture

    Set a register to a fixed constant value. Copy data from a memory location or a register to a memory location or a register (a machine instruction is often called move; however, the term is misleading). They are used to store the contents of a register, the contents of another memory location or the result of a computation, or to retrieve ...

  8. Computer program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_program

    In mathematics, a function is a rule that maps elements from an expression to a range of values. Consider the function: times_10(x) = 10 * x. The expression 10 * x is mapped by the function times_10() to a range of values. One value happens to be 20. This occurs when x is 2. So, the application of the function is mathematically written as:

  9. Blood compatibility testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_compatibility_testing

    Blood compatibility testing is routinely performed before a blood transfusion.The full compatibility testing process involves ABO and RhD (Rh factor) typing; screening for antibodies against other blood group systems; and crossmatching, which involves testing the recipient's blood plasma against the donor's red blood cells as a final check for incompatibility.
