  2. Regional handwriting variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_handwriting_variation

    In early Finnish writing, the curve to the bottom was omitted, thus the resulting letter resembled an n with a descender (like ꞃ). The lowercase letter q : In block letters, some Europeans like to cross the descender to prevent confusion with the numeral 9 , which also can be written with a straight stem.

  3. Zero-order hold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-order_hold

    The zero-order hold (ZOH) is a mathematical model of the practical signal reconstruction done by a conventional digital-to-analog converter (DAC). [1] That is, it describes the effect of converting a discrete-time signal to a continuous-time signal by holding each sample value for one sample interval. It has several applications in electrical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_narrative

    First-person narration is more difficult to achieve in film; however, voice-over narration can create the same structure. [15] An example of first-person narration in a film would be the narration given by the character Greg Heffley in the film adaptation of the popular book series Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

  5. First-order hold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-order_hold

    First-order hold (FOH) is a mathematical model of the practical reconstruction of sampled signals that could be done by a conventional digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and an analog circuit called an integrator. For FOH, the signal is reconstructed as a piecewise linear approximation to the original signal that was sampled.

  6. Gregg shorthand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregg_shorthand

    Gregg shorthand's design facilitates smooth, cursive strokes without the angular outlines characteristic of earlier systems like Duployan shorthand, thereby enhancing writing-speed and legibility. Over the years, Gregg shorthand has undergone several revisions, each aimed at simplifying the system and increasing its speed and efficiency.

The Zero-order hold (ZOH) is a mathematical model of the practical reconstruction of sampled signals done by conventional digital-to-analog converters (DAC).

  8. Found footage (film technique) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Found_footage_(film_technique)

    Like found footage, the epistolary technique has often been employed in horror fiction: both Dracula and Frankenstein are epistolary novels, as is The Call of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft. Italian director Ruggero Deodato revolutionized the found footage style of narrative filmmaking with Cannibal Holocaust (1980), the first horror film using ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_system

    For broader coverage of this topic, see Writing. A writing system comprises a set of symbols, called a script, as well as the rules by which the script represents a particular language. The earliest writing was invented during the late 4th millennium BC. Throughout history, each writing system invented without prior knowledge of writing gradually evolved from a system of proto-writing that ...
