  2. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    However, if data is a DataFrame, then data['a'] returns all values in the column(s) named a. To avoid this ambiguity, Pandas supports the syntax data.loc['a'] as an alternative way to filter using the index. Pandas also supports the syntax data.iloc[n], which always takes an integer n and returns the nth value, counting from 0. This allows a ...

  3. Polar code (coding theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_code_(coding_theory)

    Primarily, the original design of the polar codes achieves capacity when block sizes are asymptotically large with a successive cancellation decoder. However, with the block sizes used in industry, the performance of the successive cancellation is poor compared to well-defined and implemented coding schemes such as low-density parity-check code ...

  4. Polar set - Wikipedia

    The real polar of a subset of is the set: := { : ⁡ , } and the real prepolar of a subset of is the set: := { : ⁡ , }.. As with the absolute prepolar, the real prepolar is usually called the real polar and is also denoted by . [2] It's important to note that some authors (e.g. [Schaefer 1999]) define "polar" to mean "real polar" (rather than "absolute polar", as is done in this article) and ...

  5. Pole and polar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_and_polar

    If two lines a and k pass through a single point Q, then the polar q of Q joins the poles A and K of the lines a and k, respectively. The concepts of a pole and its polar line were advanced in projective geometry. For instance, the polar line can be viewed as the set of projective harmonic conjugates of a given point, the pole, with respect to ...

    The 'south'-direction x-axis is depicted but the 'north'-direction x-axis is not. (As in physics, ρ is often used instead of r to avoid confusion with the value r in cylindrical and 2D polar coordinates.) According to the conventions of geographical coordinate systems, positions are measured by latitude, longitude, and height (altitude).

  7. Polar (film) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_(film)

    Polar is a 2019 neo-noir action thriller film directed by Jonas Åkerlund and written by Jayson Rothwell, based on Víctor Santos's 2013 graphic novel Polar: Came From the Cold. The film stars Mads Mikkelsen, Vanessa Hudgens, Katheryn Winnick, and Matt Lucas. It revolves around an aging assassin on the verge of retirement who becomes targeted ...

  8. Polar night - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_night

    The length of polar night varies by latitude from 24 hours just inside the polar circles to 179 days at the poles. As there are various kinds of twilight, there also exist various kinds of polar twilight that progress towards true polar night. Each kind of polar night is defined as when it is darker than the corresponding kind of twilight.
