{{convert/warning|12.31|m|ftin|frac=on}} → 12.31 metres (40 ft 5 in) [convert: invalid fraction] A fraction denominator can be specified to display results with a fraction where appropriate. For example, |frac=8 specifies that the value should be rounded to the nearest eighth, and that a fraction should be included if necessary.
A BIOS Color Attribute is an 8 bit value where the low 4 bits represent the character color and the high 4 bits represent the background color.The name comes from the fact that these colors are used in BIOS interrupts, specifically INT 10h, the video interrupt.
Conversion of signals, or groups of signals, in one code into corresponding signals, or groups of signals, in another code. 2. A process for converting a code of some predetermined bit structure, such as 5, 7, or 14 bits per character interval , to another code with the same or a different number of bits per character interval.
In computer science, type conversion, [1] [2] type casting, [1] [3] type coercion, [3] and type juggling [4] [5] are different ways of changing an expression from one data type to another. An example would be the conversion of an integer value into a floating point value or its textual representation as a string , and vice versa.
In computer science, an integer literal is a kind of literal for an integer whose value is directly represented in source code.For example, in the assignment statement x = 1, the string 1 is an integer literal indicating the value 1, while in the statement x = 0x10 the string 0x10 is an integer literal indicating the value 16, which is represented by 10 in hexadecimal (indicated by the 0x prefix).
Gray's patent introduces the term "reflected binary code" In principle, there can be more than one such code for a given word length, but the term Gray code was first applied to a particular binary code for non-negative integers, the binary-reflected Gray code, or BRGC.
INT 10h is fairly slow, so many programs bypass this BIOS routine and access the display hardware directly. Setting the video mode, which is done infrequently, can be accomplished by using the BIOS, while drawing graphics on the screen in a game needs to be done quickly, so direct access to video RAM is more appropriate than making a BIOS call ...
For example, INT 13H will generate the 20th software interrupt (0x13 is nineteen (19) in hexadecimal notation, and the count starts at 0), causing the function pointed to by the 20th vector in the interrupt table to be executed. INT is widely used in real mode. In protected mode, INT is a privileged instruction. [1]
