  3. Saturation arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_arithmetic

    Saturation arithmetic. Saturation arithmetic is a version of arithmetic in which all operations, such as addition and multiplication, are limited to a fixed range between a minimum and maximum value. If the result of an operation is greater than the maximum, it is set ("clamped") to the maximum; if it is below the minimum, it is clamped to the ...

  4. Information theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_theory

    v. t. e. Information theory is the mathematical study of the quantification, storage, and communication of information. The field was originally established by the works of Harry Nyquist and Ralph Hartley, in the 1920s, and Claude Shannon in the 1940s. [1] : vii The field, in applied mathematics, is at the intersection of probability theory ...

  5. Inverse kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_kinematics

    In computer animation and robotics, inverse kinematics is the mathematical process of calculating the variable joint parameters needed to place the end of a kinematic chain, such as a robot manipulator or animation character's skeleton, in a given position and orientation relative to the start of the chain. Given joint parameters, the position ...

  6. Vector graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics

    Vector graphics are a form of computer graphics in which visual images are created directly from geometric shapes defined on a Cartesian plane, such as points, lines, curves and polygons. The associated mechanisms may include vector display and printing hardware, vector data models and file formats, as well as the software based on these data ...

    GeoGebra. GeoGebra (a portmanteau of geometry and algebra) is an interactive geometry, algebra, statistics and calculus application, intended for learning and teaching mathematics and science from primary school to university level. GeoGebra is available on multiple platforms, with apps for desktops ( Windows, macOS and Linux ), tablets ...

  8. Recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion

    Recursion is the process a procedure goes through when one of the steps of the procedure involves invoking the procedure itself. A procedure that goes through recursion is said to be 'recursive'. [3] To understand recursion, one must recognize the distinction between a procedure and the running of a procedure.

  9. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, [1] algebra, [2] geometry, [1] and analysis, [3 ...
