  2. Inner loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_loop

    The two examples below, written in Python, present a while loop with an inner for loop and a while loop without an inner loop. Although both have the same terminating condition for their while loops, the first example will finish faster because of the inner for loop. The variable innermax is a fraction of the maxticketno variable in the first ...

  3. Work loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_Loop

    The area inside the work loop can be quantified either 1) digitally by importing a work loop image into ImageJ, tracing the work loop shape and quantifying its area. Or, 2) manually by printing a hard copy of the work loop graph, cutting the inner area and weighing it on an analytical balance. Net work is then divided by the time duration of ...

  4. Parallel transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_transport

    Parallel transport of a vector around a closed loop (from A to N to B and back to A) on the sphere. The angle by which it twists, , is proportional to the area inside the loop. In differential geometry, parallel transport (or parallel translation [a]) is a way of transporting geometrical data along smooth curves in a manifold.

  5. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plotting_algorithms_for...

    As with border tracing, rectangle checking only works on areas with one discrete color. But even if the outer area uses smooth/continuous coloring then rectangle checking will still speed up the costly inner area of the Mandelbrot set. Unless the inner area also uses some smooth coloring method, for instance interior distance estimation.

  6. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    For example, to calculate the dynamics of a billiard ball being struck, one can approximate the force of the impact by a Dirac delta. In doing so, one not only simplifies the equations, but one also is able to calculate the motion of the ball, by only considering the total impulse of the collision, without a detailed model of all of the elastic ...

  7. Loop nest optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_nest_optimization

    Loop tiling partitions a loop's iteration space into smaller chunks or blocks, so as to help ensure data used in a loop stays in the cache until it is reused. The partitioning of loop iteration space leads to partitioning of a large array into smaller blocks, thus fitting accessed array elements into cache size, enhancing cache reuse and eliminating cache size requirements.

  8. Loop-invariant code motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop-invariant_code_motion

    In computer programming, loop-invariant code consists of statements or expressions (in an imperative programming language) that can be moved outside the body of a loop without affecting the semantics of the program. Loop-invariant code motion (also called hoisting or scalar promotion) is a compiler optimization that performs this movement ...

  9. Annulus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annulus_(mathematics)

    The inner radius is then ⁠ r / R ⁠ < 1. The Hadamard three-circle theorem is a statement about the maximum value a holomorphic function may take inside an annulus. The Joukowsky transform conformally maps an annulus onto an ellipse with a slit cut between foci.
