    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_News-Record

    The Engineering News-Record (widely known as ENR) is an American weekly magazine that provides news, analysis, data and opinion for the construction industry worldwide. It is widely regarded as one of the construction industry's most authoritative publications and is considered by many to be the "bible" of the industry.

  3. Calendrical calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendrical_calculation

    A calendrical calculation is a calculation concerning calendar dates. Calendrical calculations can be considered an area of applied mathematics. Some examples of calendrical calculations: Converting a Julian or Gregorian calendar date to its Julian day number and vice versa (see § Julian day number calculation within that article for details).

  4. Doomsday rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_rule

    Applying the Doomsday algorithm involves three steps: determination of the anchor day for the century, calculation of the anchor day for the year from the one for the century, and selection of the closest date out of those that always fall on the doomsday, e.g., 4/4 and 6/6, and count of the number of days between that date and the date in ...

  5. Zeller's congruence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeller's_congruence

    These formulas are based on the observation that the day of the week progresses in a predictable manner based upon each subpart of that date. Each term within the formula is used to calculate the offset needed to obtain the correct day of the week. For the Gregorian calendar, the various parts of this formula can therefore be understood as follows:

  6. Excess noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_Noise_Ratio

    Knowing both Y and the ENR, one can then determine the amount of noise contributed by the amplifier and hence can calculate the noise figure of the amplifier. Other techniques exist for making this measurement but either require accurate measurements of impedance or are inaccurate. The following formula relates Y-factor to ENR:

  7. Determination of the day of the week - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determination_of_the_day...

    The basic approach of nearly all of the methods to calculate the day of the week begins by starting from an "anchor date": a known pair (such as 1 January 1800 as a Wednesday), determining the number of days between the known day and the day that you are trying to determine, and using arithmetic modulo 7 to find a new numerical day of the week.
