51Binomial coefficient — The binomial coefficients can be arranged to form Pascal s triangle. In mathematics, binomial coefficients are a family of positive integers that occur as coefficients in the binomial theorem. They are indexed by two nonnegative integers; the… …
52Midpoint circle algorithm — In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for drawing a circle. The algorithm is a variant of Bresenham s line algorithm, and is thus sometimes known as Bresenham s circle algorithm,… …
53Hyperbolic geometry — Lines through a given point P and asymptotic to line R. A triangle immersed in a saddle shape plane (a hyperbolic paraboloid), as well as two diverging ultraparall …
54Angular mil — An angular mil, also mil, is a unit of angle. All versions of the angular mil are approximately the same size as a trigonometric milliradian. Contents 1 History 2 Mathematical principle 3 Use …
55Java performance — Programs written in Java have had a reputation for being slower and requiring more memory than those written in natively compiled languages such as C or C++ (see e.g. [cite web url=http://www.jelovic.com/articles/why java is slow.htm title=Why… …
56Lacunary function — In analysis, a lacunary function, also known as a lacunary series, is an analytic function that cannot be analytically continued anywhere outside the circle of convergence within which it is defined by a power series. The word lacunary is derived …
57Pytheas — of Massilia (Ancient Greek Πυθέας ὁ Μασσαλιώτης), 4th century BC, was a Greek geographer and explorer from the Greek colony Massilia (today Marseille, France). He made a voyage of exploration to northwestern Europe possibly no earlier than around …
58Cardioid/Proofs — TheoremThe curve defined by the parametric equations : x(t) = 2 r left( cos t {1 over 2} cos 2 t ight), qquad qquad (1) : y(t) = 2 r left( sin t {1 over 2} sin 2 t ight) qquad qquad (2) has the same shape as the curve defined in polar coordinates …
59Hilbert space — For the Hilbert space filling curve, see Hilbert curve. Hilbert spaces can be used to study the harmonics of vibrating strings. The mathematical concept of a Hilbert space, named after David Hilbert, generalizes the notion of Euclidean space. It… …
60parallax — parallactic /par euh lak tik/, adj. parallactically, adv. /par euh laks /, n. 1. the apparent displacement of an observed object due to a change in the position of the observer. 2. Astron. the apparent angular displacement of a celestial body due …
