  Block - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A block (music) is a separate complete unit that is primarily not developed but instead used in various combinations, these may be contrasted or transformed, and each block may be broken into parts and developed independently.
In programming languages, a block (programming) forms a subdivision of a program that serves to group related statements, delimit routines, specify storage allocation, delineate the applicability of labels, or segment parts of the program for other purposes.
In sailing, a block is a pulley or a number of pulleys enclosed in sheaves so as to be fixed to the end of a line or to a spar or surface.

 Baruch College's Coordinated Freshman Year Program : Block Programming   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Research demonstrates that block programs foster the formation of study groups and the development of social relationships, aid in the acculturation process, promote academic integration into the College community, and increase retention.
At Baruch College, block programming is the primary vehicle for providing a coordinated and integrated freshman year experience.
Each block consists of an English composition course, a mathematics course, a Freshman Seminar, and two or three additional courses taken from the College's base-curriculum courses in the social sciences, history, and business.

 FCC 98-36, ET Docket No. 97-206 Technical Requirements to Enable Blocking of Video Programming based on Program Ratings
With respect to blocking technology, we are persuaded by TV manufacturers that a mandatory requirement to provide for possible future additional rating systems would complicate receiver design, increase costs, and make it confusing for parents to program TV receivers to block undesired programs.
The Industry states that the Commission's rules should ensure that unrated programs are not blocked, while CME asserts that parents should have the option to block all unrated programs.
Blocking of programming shall occur when a program rating is received that meets the pre-determined user requirements.

 Improve Programming with Intel(R) Flash Memory Enhanced Factory Programming
During the programming operation a single attempt is made to program the flash cell at each memory location, which substantially reduces the time it takes to program a memory location.
Program verification occurs in a separate phase of the EFP operation, which eliminates the internal delays required to switch voltages on the programmed cells from programming levels to verification levels, and back and forth if additional program attempts are necessary.
The verify phase is identical in flow to the program phase except that instead of programming incoming data, the WSM compares at an internal margin the incoming data with the data that was previously programmed into the memory block.

 Block Programming Style for DSPs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Chris Townsend writes: >I have heard that it is often beneficial to use a block programming style >when writing DSP code.
Block style makes it easy to update filter coeffs at less than the sample rate.
It seems fairly common to use block calculations in synthesis compilers, perhaps to avoid the overhead of a function call for every operation on every sample - makes feedback tricky though.

 Cable Puts You In Control--FAQ
A program’s TV rating appears in the upper left hand corner of the screen for the first 15 seconds of a program (except news and sports, which are not rated).
Program descriptions and TV ratings can help you determine if a program is consistent with your child’s emotional and intellectual capabilities and with your own family values.
The channel(s) will be blocked at all times unless viewing is authorized by entering a Personal Identification Number (PIN), a code number which acts as a password and is typically selected and retained by an adult member of the household.

 How to Block Microwave Mind-Programming Signals by Montalk
The more you are in control of your own mind and emotions, and the more observant you are about your own behavior, the less influence these signals have upon your thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
Though some signal still gets through, and foil does not block pure ELF waves (ones without a higher frequency carrier), this is one step to greatly reducing the level of incoming microwave radiation.
Reducing mind programming signal influences should serve to increase your productivity and efficiency in what you truly desire to do, the goals you choose to follow.

 Popular Programming Language Timelines Tutorials Extensions
This language became so popular in the early 1960s that other vendors started to produce their own versions and this led to a growing divergence of dialects (by 1963 there were 40 different compilers).
In the middle of this second period, the first widely available description of the language appeared: The C Programming Language, often called the `white book' or `KandR' [Kernighan 78].
A high-level programming language from Microsoft that's graphically oriented and relatively easy to learn, Visual Basic can be used to create everything from simple database applications to commercial software packages.

 The Northwestern Software Company : 'be' Programming Tool   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
By adding special comments at the start and end of each block in the source code this utility allows programmers to quickly and easily find matching block header statements and end statements in a program, saving much time (and money).
This allows you to quickly see the block structure of the program and easily move around the program in any editor by searching either backwards or forwards for corresponding block numbers.
Although the example just given uses a program of only 11 lines be will work on programs that have many hundreds of lines and many blocks of code.

Digital Signal Processing scientists are increasingly involved in programming, whether for simulation and research, for software development (mainly for Digital Signal Processors), or even for hardware development (ASIC's are now being programmed and simulated with the VHDL language [IEEE 87] [Airiau et al 90]).
What is more, it does by no means invalidate structured programming DSP software libraries, the functions of which can still directly be addressed by the blocks process methods.
Programs can even be only partially described in the form of blocks.
