  2. Elo rating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system

    The Elo[a] rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in zero-sum games such as chess or esports. It is named after its creator Arpad Elo, a Hungarian-American physics professor. The Elo system was invented as an improved chess-rating system over the previously used Harkness system, [1] but is also used as a ...

  3. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    Air density, like air pressure, decreases with increasing altitude. It also changes with variations in atmospheric pressure, temperature and humidity. At 101.325 kPa (abs) and 20 °C (68 °F), air has a density of approximately 1.204 kg/m 3 (0.0752 lb/cu ft), according to the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA).

  4. Microtox bioassay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtox_bioassay

    The Microtox Omni Software was developed by Azur Environmental and allows users of the Microtox Model 500 Analyser to run tests, visualize data, calculate statistics and generate reports. [18] This program contains a set of templates for all of the commonly used toxicity tests and allows you to modify or add to the provided templates.

  5. Relative change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_change

    A percentage change is a way to express a change in a variable. It represents the relative change between the old value and the new one. [6]For example, if a house is worth $100,000 today and the year after its value goes up to $110,000, the percentage change of its value can be expressed as = = %.

  6. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    The percent value can also be found by multiplying first instead of later, so in this example, the 50 would be multiplied by 100 to give 5,000, and this result would be divided by 1,250 to give 4%. To calculate a percentage of a percentage, convert both percentages to fractions of 100, or to decimals, and multiply them. For example, 50% of 40% is:

  7. Course deviation indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_deviation_indicator

    A mechanical VOR display. A course deviation indicator (CDI) [1] is an avionics instrument used in aircraft navigation to determine an aircraft's lateral position in relation to a course to or from a radio navigation beacon. If the location of the aircraft is to the left of this course, the needle deflects to the right, and vice versa.

  8. Percentage point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage_point

    A percentage point or percent point is the unit for the arithmetic difference between two percentages. For example, moving up from 40 percent to 44 percent is an increase of 4 percentage points (although it is a 10-percent increase in the quantity being measured, if the total amount remains the same).

  9. Alveolar–arterial gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar–arterial_gradient

    CSF alb = 30. CSF glu = 60. CSF/S alb = 7.5. CSF/S glu = 0.6. The Alveolar–arterial gradient (A- aO. 2, [1] or A–a gradient), is a measure of the difference between the alveolar concentration (A) of oxygen and the arterial (a) concentration of oxygen. It is a useful parameter for narrowing the differential diagnosis of hypoxemia.
