  2. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    C mathematical operations are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing basic mathematical functions. [1] [2] All functions use floating-point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different, albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions.

  3. Continental margin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_margin

    Convergent active margins are the most common type of active margin. Transform active margins are more rare, and occur when an oceanic plate and a continental plate are moving parallel to each other in opposite directions. These transform margins are often characterized by many offshore faults, which causes high degree of relief offshore ...

  4. Map (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_(higher-order_function)

    In Haskell, the polymorphic function map :: (a -> b) -> [a] -> [b] is generalized to a polytypic function fmap :: Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b, which applies to any type belonging the Functor type class. The type constructor of lists [] can be defined as an instance of the Functor type class using the map function from the previous example:

  5. Passive margin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_margin

    Most of the eastern Indian Ocean and nearly all of the Pacific Ocean margin are examples of active margins. While a weld between oceanic and continental lithosphere is called a passive margin, it is not an inactive margin. Active subsidence, sedimentation, growth faulting, pore fluid formation and migration are all active processes on passive ...

  6. Accretionary wedge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accretionary_wedge

    Active margins characterized by a significant proportion of fine-grained sediment within the incoming section, such as northern Antilles and eastern Nankai, exhibit thin taper angles, whereas those characterized by a higher proportion of sandy turbidites, such as Cascadia, Chile, and Mexico, have steep taper angles. Observations from active ...

  7. Region-based memory management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Region-based_memory_management

    A restriction of C called Control-C limits programs to use regions (and only a single region at a time), as part of its design to statically ensure memory safety. [ 20 ] Regions were implemented for a subset of Java , [ 21 ] and became a critical component of memory management in Real time Java , which combines them with ownership types to ...

  8. Multimap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimap

    In computer science, a multimap (sometimes also multihash, multidict or multidictionary) is a generalization of a map or associative array abstract data type in which more than one value may be associated with and returned for a given key. Both map and multimap are particular cases of containers (for example, see C++ Standard Template Library ...

  9. Active-set method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active-set_method

    For example, in solving the linear programming problem, the active set gives the hyperplanes that intersect at the solution point. In quadratic programming , as the solution is not necessarily on one of the edges of the bounding polygon, an estimation of the active set gives us a subset of inequalities to watch while searching the solution ...
