  3. Emergency service response codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_service_response...

    In the United States, response codes are used to describe a mode of response for an emergency unit responding to a call. They generally vary but often have three basic tiers: Code 3: Respond to the call using lights and sirens. Code 2: Respond to the call with emergency lights, but without sirens. Alternatively, sirens may be used if necessary ...

  4. Specific Area Message Encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_Area_Message_Encoding

    The text of the header code is a fixed format: <Preamble>ZCZC-ORG-EEE-PSSCCC+TTTT-JJJHHMM-LLLLLLLL- This is broken down as follows: 1. A preamble of binary 10101011 (0xAB in hex) repeated sixteen times, used for "receiver calibration" (i.e., clock synchronization), then the letters ZCZC as an attention to the decoder (a message activation method inherited from NAVTEX).

  5. Fox (code word) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fox_(code_word)

    Fox (code word) Fox is a brevity code used by NATO pilots to signal the simulated or actual release of an air-to-air munition or other combat function. Army aviation elements may use a different nomenclature, as the nature of helicopter -fired weapons is almost always air-to-surface. "Fox" is short for "foxtrot", the NATO phonetic designation ...

  6. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    The original information may or may not appear literally in the encoded output; codes that include the unmodified input in the output are systematic, while those that do not are non-systematic. A simplistic example of ECC is to transmit each data bit 3 times, which is known as a (3,1) repetition code. Through a noisy channel, a receiver might ...

  7. Rogers–Ramanujan continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogers–Ramanujan...

    The Rogers–Ramanujan continued fraction is a continued fraction discovered by Rogers (1894) and independently by Srinivasa Ramanujan, and closely related to the Rogers–Ramanujan identities. It can be evaluated explicitly for a broad class of values of its argument. Domain coloring representation of the convergent of the function , where is ...

  8. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

    Some older textbooks use all commas in the (n + 1)-tuple, for example, [4, 2, 6, 7]. [3] [4] If the starting number is rational, then this process exactly parallels the Euclidean algorithm applied to the numerator and denominator of the number. In particular, it must terminate and produce a finite continued fraction representation of the number.

  9. Number Forms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_Forms

    Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals. In addition to the characters in the Number Forms block, three fractions (¼, ½, and ¾) were inherited from ISO-8859-1 ...
