  2. Source lines of code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_lines_of_code

    Robert E. Park (while at the Software Engineering Institute) and others developed a framework for defining SLOC values, to enable people to carefully explain and define the SLOC measure used in a project. For example, most software systems reuse code, and determining which (if any) reused code to include is important when reporting a measure.

  3. Great-circle distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_distance

    A diagram illustrating great-circle distance (drawn in red) between two points on a sphere, P and Q. Two antipodal points, u and v are also shown.. The great-circle distance, orthodromic distance, or spherical distance is the distance between two points on a sphere, measured along the great-circle arc between them.

  4. Dead reckoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_reckoning

    The wind triangle is used to calculate the effects of wind on heading and airspeed to obtain a magnetic heading to steer and the speed over the ground (groundspeed). Printed tables, formulae, or an E6B flight computer are used to calculate the effects of air density on aircraft rate of climb, rate of fuel burn, and airspeed.

    A free open source tool to convert from CSV and Excel files to wiki table format: csv2other; Spreadsheet-to-MediaWiki-table-Converter This class constructs a MediaWiki-format table from an Excel/GoogleDoc copy & paste. It provides a variety of methods to modify the style. It defaults to a Wikipedia styling with first column header. [2]

  7. Delimiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delimiter

    Another example of a delimiter is the time gap used to separate letters and words in the transmission of Morse code. [ citation needed ] In mathematics , delimiters are often used to specify the scope of an operation , and can occur both as isolated symbols (e.g., colon in " 1 : 4 {\displaystyle 1:4} ") and as a pair of opposing-looking symbols ...

  8. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Fitting of a noisy curve by an asymmetrical peak model, with an iterative process (Gauss–Newton algorithm with variable damping factor α).Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints.

  9. Matplotlib - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matplotlib

    Matplotlib (portmanteau of MATLAB, plot, and library [3]) is a plotting library for the Python programming language and its numerical mathematics extension NumPy. It provides an object-oriented API for embedding plots into applications using general-purpose GUI toolkits like Tkinter , wxPython , Qt , or GTK .
