  2. Matrix (printing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(printing)

    Matrices created by Jean Jannon around 1640. The Garamond typeface installed with most Microsoft software is based on these designs. [1] [2] [3]In the manufacture of metal type used in letterpress printing, a matrix (from the Latin meaning womb or a female breeding animal) is the mould used to cast a letter, known as a sort. [4]

  3. Dot matrix printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_matrix_printing

    Each solenoid is connected to a lever, which is connected to a long rod, which acts as a pin at the bottom of the print head. Dot matrix printing uses a print head that moves back-and-forth, or in an up-and-down motion, on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like the print mechanism on a ...

  4. Relief printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relief_printing

    The relief family of techniques includes woodcut, metalcut, wood engraving, relief etching, linocut, rubber stamp, foam printing, potato printing, and some types of collagraph. By contrast, in the intaglio family of printing, the recessed areas are printed by inking the whole matrix, then wiping the surface so that only ink in the recessed ...

  5. Digital print matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_print_matrix

    A digital print matrix is the digital state from which a print art object can be instanced with original intent. The traditional term print matrix is the physical surface from which an image is printed, woodblock, plate, stone or screen. [1] Although these may in themselves be produced digitally they comprise a traditional (physical) matrix.

  6. Ulam spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulam_spiral

    The Ulam spiral or prime spiral is a graphical depiction of the set of prime numbers, devised by mathematician Stanisław Ulam in 1963 and popularized in Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in Scientific American a short time later. [1] It is constructed by writing the positive integers in a square spiral and specially marking the prime ...

  7. Ordered dithering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_dithering

    An optimal threshold matrix is one that for any possible quantisation of color has the minimum possible texture so that the greatest impression of the underlying feature comes from the image being quantised. It can be proven that for matrices whose side length is a power of two there is an optimal threshold matrix. [2]

  8. Rosetta Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code

    The Rosetta Code site is organized as a browsable cross-section of tasks (specific programming problems or considerations) and computer programming languages. [2] A task's page displays visitor-contributed solutions in various computer languages, allowing a viewer to compare each language's approach to the task's stated problem.

  9. APL (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)

    Instead, they used array operations, and use of structured programming constructs was often unneeded, since an operation could be performed on a full array in one statement. For example, the iota function ( ι ) can replace for-loop iteration : ιN when applied to a scalar positive integer yields a one-dimensional array (vector), 1 2 3 ...
