  2. Photomultiplier tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photomultiplier_Tube

    Negative high-voltage supplies (with the positive terminal grounded) are often preferred, because this configuration enables the photocurrent to be measured at the low voltage side of the circuit for amplification by subsequent electronic circuits operating at low voltage. However, with the photocathode at high voltage, leakage currents ...

  3. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. [33] Python is dynamically type-checked and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including structured (particularly procedural), object-oriented and functional ...

    PMT (Program Mapping Table) NIT (Network Information Table) The MPEG-2 specification does not specify the format of the CAT and NIT. PSI is carried in the form of a table structure. Each table structure is broken into sections, although some tables like a PMT cannot have more than one section. Each section can span multiple transport stream ...

  5. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.

  6. SymPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SymPy

    SymPy is an open-source Python library for symbolic computation. It provides computer algebra capabilities either as a standalone application, as a library to other applications, or live on the web as SymPy Live [2] or SymPy Gamma. [3] SymPy is simple to install and to inspect because it is written entirely in Python with few dependencies.

  7. MPEG transport stream - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG_transport_stream

    A network packet is the basic unit of data in a transport stream, and a transport stream is merely a sequence of packets. Each packet starts with a sync byte and a header, that may be followed with optional additional headers; the rest of the packet consists of payload.

  8. Slack variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slack_variable

    Slack variables give an embedding of a polytope into the standard f-orthant, where is the number of constraints (facets of the polytope). This map is one-to-one (slack variables are uniquely determined) but not onto (not all combinations can be realized), and is expressed in terms of the constraints (linear functionals, covectors).

  9. APL syntax and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_syntax_and_symbols

    APL uses the term operator in Heaviside’s sense as a moderator of a function as opposed to some other programming language's use of the same term as something that operates on data, ref. relational operator and operators generally.
