  2. 2D computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2D_computer_graphics

    2D computer graphics is the computer-based generation of digital images —mostly from two-dimensional models (such as 2D geometric models, text, and digital images) and by techniques specific to them. It may refer to the branch of computer science that comprises such techniques or to the models themselves. Raster graphic sprites (left) and masks.

  3. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    Row- and column-major order. In computing, row-major order and column-major order are methods for storing multidimensional arrays in linear storage such as random access memory. The difference between the orders lies in which elements of an array are contiguous in memory. In row-major order, the consecutive elements of a row reside next to each ...

  4. Argon2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon2

    Argon2 is a key derivation function that was selected as the winner of the 2015 Password Hashing Competition. [1] [2] It was designed by Alex Biryukov, Daniel Dinu, and Dmitry Khovratovich from the University of Luxembourg. [3]

  5. Raster graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics

    The fundamental strategy underlying the raster data model is the tessellation of a plane, into a two-dimensional array of squares, each called a cell or pixel (from "picture element"). In digital photography , the plane is the visual field as projected onto the image sensor ; in computer art , the plane is a virtual canvas; in geographic ...

  6. Swizzling (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swizzling_(computer_graphics)

    For example, if A = {1,2,3,4}, where the components are x, y, z, and w respectively, you could compute B = A.wwxy, whereupon B would equal {4,4,1,2}. Additionally, one could create a two-dimensional vector with A.wx or a five-dimensional vector with A.xyzwx. Combining vectors and swizzling can be employed in various ways.

  7. Array slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_slicing

    This article is about the data structure operation. For other uses of slicing, see Slicing (disambiguation). In computer programming, array slicing is an operation that extracts a subset of elements from an array and packages them as another array, possibly in a different dimension from the original. Common examples of array slicing are ...

  8. Graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphene

    Graphene is known for its exceptionally high tensile strength, electrical conductivity, transparency, and being the thinnest two-dimensional material in the world. [4] Despite the nearly transparent nature of a single graphene sheet, graphite (formed from stacked layers of graphene) appears black because it absorbs all visible light wavelengths.

  9. Data Matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Matrix

    An example of a Data Matrix code, encoding the text: "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". A Data Matrix is a two-dimensional code consisting of black and white "cells" or dots arranged in either a square or rectangular pattern, also known as a matrix. The information to be encoded can be text or numeric data. Usual data size is from a few bytes ...
