    The Type 88 surface-to-ship missile (88式地対艦誘導弾, SSM-1) is a truck-mounted anti-ship missile developed by Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in the late 1980s.

  3. Positional notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

    The first position to the right of the separator indicates 10 −1 (0.1), the second position 102 (0.01), and so on for each successive position. As an example, the number 2674 in a base-10 numeral system is: (2 × 10 3) + (6 × 10 2) + (7 × 10 1) + (4 × 10 0) or (2 × 1000) + (6 × 100) + (7 × 10) + (4 × 1).

  4. PPM Star Catalogue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PPM_Star_Catalogue

    In contrast to the PPM, these older catalogs are based on (1) the now obsolete FK4 system of positions and proper motions, and (2) only two position measures per star. [ 2 ] While the SAO catalog is more or less complete to V=9, with 4,503 stars fainter than V=10, the PPM catalog is fairly complete to V=9.5, with 102,672 stars fainter than V=10 ...

  5. Quaternions and spatial rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternions_and_spatial...

    Quaternions give a simple way to encode this [7] axis–angle representation using four real numbers, and can be used to apply (calculate) the corresponding rotation to a position vector (x,y,z), representing a point relative to the origin in R 3. Euclidean vectors such as (2, 3, 4) or (a x, a y, a z) can be rewritten as 2 i + 3 j + 4 k or a x ...

  6. Fisher–Yates shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    Tracing successive positions as just mentioned, there is no difference between π and σ until arriving at position k. But then, under π the element originally at position k is moved to the final position rather than to position l, and the element originally at the final position is moved to position l.

  7. Threefold repetition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threefold_repetition

    The rule is also known as repetition of position and, in the USCF rules, as triple occurrence of position. [1] Two positions are by definition "the same" if the same types of pieces occupy the same squares, the same player has the move, the remaining castling rights are the same and the possibility to capture en passant is the same.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_manual_transmission

    Gear shift lever on a motorcycle (above the toe of the rider's boot) A sequential manual transmission is unsynchronized, and allows the driver to select either the next gear (e.g. shifting from first gear to second gear) or the previous gear (e.g., shifting from third gear to second gear), operated either via electronic paddle-shifters mounted behind the steering wheel or with a sequential ...
