uboat.net - U-boat Types - Type VIIC Type VIIC was a slightly modified version of the successful VIIB. The number of boats commissioned of this type, 568, is too great to list here. The VIIC was the workhorse of the German U-boat force in World War Two from 1941 onwards and boats of this type were being built throughout the war. uboat.net /types/viic.htm

Type inference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The origin of this algorithm is the type inference algorithm for the simply typed lambda calculus, which was devised by Haskell B. Curry and Robert Feys in 1958. Type inference refers to the ability to automatically either partially or fully deduce the type of the value derived from the eventual evaluation of an expression. Type inference is a feature present in some strongly statically typed programming languages. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_inference   (705 words)

Type 72 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Type 72 cannot be located using metal detectors under most field conditions. Type 72 Non-Metallic is a Chinese circular, plastic bodied landmine which is designed to damage or destroy a vehicle by blast effect. Type 72 has a telescopic carrying handle molded into the bottom of the mine and a large diameter filler plug on the side just above the handle position. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_72   (453 words)

Primitive type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Depending on the language and its implementation, primitive types may or may not have a one-to-one correspondence with objects in the computer's memory. Primitive types are also known as built-in types or basic types. The actual range of primitive types that is available is dependent upon the specific programming language that is being used. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Primitive_type   (323 words)

Roman type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Roman type can refer to one of the major families of traditional typefaces as a synonym for serif. Roman type has two separate meanings in typography, both of which refer to the fact that the capital letters of a Roman font have an appearance similar to those used for lettering stone in ancient Rome: Roman type can also refer to the normal upright counterpart of an italic or oblique typeface. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Roman_type   (142 words)

Blood type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A blood type (or blood group) is a characteristic of an individual's red blood cells, defined in terms of specific substances (carbohydrates and proteins) on the cell membrane. In type O blood, it remains unchanged and consists of a chain of galactose, N-acetylglucosamine, galactose, and fructose attached to the ceramide. Blood types are not evenly distributed throughout the human population. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Blood_type   (3359 words)

Italic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Italic type is used in typography for emphasis and for other reasons. The term is most commonly used to refer to the peoples and languages of what is now Italy from the historic period before the Roman Empire. Italic printing and italic handwriting are sometimes taught as more natural or easier forms of writing. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Italic   (118 words)

Encyclopedia: Type 45 The Type 45 is also planned to be given cruise missile launchers if the need arise in the future. The Type 45 destroyers will replace the Type 42 Destroyers currently in service with the Royal Navy. The Type 45 design utilises the PAAMS anti-air system, a joint British, French and Italian design, which comprises the SAMPSON fire control and tracking radar, MBDA Aster 15 and 30 missile systems and the 48-cell SYLVER vertical missile launcher, giving the Type 45 a short-range and long-range anti-air capability. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Type-45   (118 words)

Type 42 destroyer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Type 45s are to be considerably larger; displacing almost 7,400 tonnes, compared to the Type 42 displacement of 4,820 tonnes (Batch I and II) and 5,200 tonnes (Batch III). The Type 42 Destroyer was built to fill in the gap left by the cancellation of the Type 82 destroyer, it was however, designed to be smaller and more cost effective. The Type 42 is also equipped with a 4.5 inch (114 mm) gun, six torpedo launchers, and two Vulcan Phalanx Mk.15 Close-In Weapons Systems (CIWS) were fitted after the loss of the Sheffield to an Exocet missile. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_42   (118 words)

Composite type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The act of constructing a composite type is known as composition. In computer science, composite types are datatypes which can be constructed in a programming language out of that language's primitive types and other composite types. is C's and C++'s notion of a composite type, a datatype that composes a fixed set of labelled fields or members. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Composite_type   (488 words)

Ideal type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An ideal type is formed from characteristics and elements of the given phenomena but it is not meant to correspond to all of the characteristics of any one particular case. Some sociologists argue that ideal type tends to focus on extreme phenomena and overlook the connections between them, and that it is difficult to show how the types and their elements fit into a theory of a total social system. Ideal type, also known as pure type, or idealtyp (in the original German), is a typological term invented by sociologist Max Weber (1864-1920). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ideal_Type   (394 words)

Stem cell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Embryonic stem cells are stem cells derived from the undifferentiated inner mass cells of a blastocyst, an early stage embryo consisting of 50-150 cells. Embryonic stem cells are cultured cells obtained from the undifferentiated inner mass cells of a blastocyst, an early stage embryo that is 50 to 150 cells. Embryonic stem cell researchers are currently attempting to grow the cells beyond the first stages of cell development, to overcome difficulties in host rejection of implanted stem cells, and to control the multiplying of implanted embryonic stem cells, which otherwise multiply uncontrollably, producing a tumor. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Stem_cell   (5396 words)

101 Cookbooks For those of you in the dark, potstickers are basically a round wonton-type wrapper filled with a bit of stuffing (sort of like a dumpling-but folded into a half-moonshape), then steam-fried, which I will talk about later. The other thing I will say is, this is the loudest recipe I have ever cooked. As you can imagine the options for fillings here are endless. www.101cookbooks.com /archives/000072.html   (5396 words)

Wild type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In biology, a wild type is one of the major genotypes of a species that occur in nature by evolution, in contrast to induced mutations or artificial cross-breeding. Wild type is also used for single genes (wild type alleles) (as opposed to induced mutant alleles). Whereas a mutant allele is designated as a "mutant" allele. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wild_type   (81 words)

Genus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The type genus of a taxon is usually the first genus to be named and described. Families, and in plants all taxa up to division, are named after the type genus. For instance, Anura is a genus of plants in the family Asteraceae and the order of frogs; Aotus is the genus of golden peas and night monkeys; Oenanthe is the genus of wheatears and water dropworts, and Prunella is the genus of accentors and self-heal. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Genus   (349 words)

Type introspection - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In computing, type introspection is a capability of some object-oriented programming languages to determine the type of an object at runtime. Type introspection can be used to implement polymorphism. ), the function will behave correctly depending on the type of the generic object. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_introspection   (349 words)

Type signature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The actual type specifications can consist of an actual type, such as Integer, or a type variable that is used in parametric polymorphic functions, such as "a", or "b", or "anyType". In the Java virtual machine, so-called internal type signatures are used to identify methods and classes at the level of the virtual machine code. A type signature defines the inputs and outputs for a function or method. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_signature   (228 words)

985-Biological_Types Biological Types as a Witness to Divine Creation According to Genesis 1 living things were created according to “kinds.” To this day plants and animals exist as types. If in the distant past one type of organism actually did evolve into another, there should be evidence of that among the fossils. www.geocities.com /lsiorg/985-Biological_Types.html   (228 words)

Moon type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It is still possible to obtain literature in Moon type from the National Library for the Blind in Stockport; however, outside the United Kingdom it is not widely known. The Moon System of Embossed Reading (Moon alphabet, Moon type or Moon code) is a system of writing for the blind, using embossed symbols mostly derived from the Roman alphabet (but simplified). Moon type was developed by Dr. William Moon (1818 - 1894), a blind Englishman living in Brighton, East Sussex. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Moon_type   (202 words)

Binomial theorem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This formula, and the triangular arrangement of the binomial coefficients, are often attributed to Blaise Pascal who described them in the 17th century. In mathematics, the binomial theorem is an important formula giving the expansion of powers of sums. It was, however, known to Chinese mathematician Yang Hui in the 13th century. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Binomial_theorem   (429 words)

PlanetMath: Russell's theory of types Type theory is based on the idea that impredicative definitions are the root of all evil. The original form of type theory is known as ramified type theory, and the simpler alternative with no second hierarchy of levels is known as unramified type theory or simply as simple type theory. This is version 7 of Russell's theory of types, born on 2003-08-06, modified 2004-02-16. planetmath.org /encyclopedia/RussellsTheoryOfTypes.html   (429 words)

Blood type - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Consequently, the blood type system identified by Landsteiner and Wiener was renamed the LW system, in honor of its discoverers. The antigens of a blood type system are derived from alleleic genes, or genes in close genetic linkage. In the UK the distribution of blood type frequencies through the population still shows some correlation to the distribution of placenames and to the successive invasions and migrations including Vikings, Danes, Saxons, Celts, and Normans who contributed the phonemes to the placenames and the genes to the population. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Blood_type   (3383 words)

Type system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Type systems that allow polymorphism generally do so in order to improve the potential for code re-use: in a language with polymorphism, programmers need only implement a data structure such as a list or a dictionary once, rather than once for each type of element with which they plan to use it. Type theory studies type systems, although the concrete type systems of programming languages originate from practical issues of computer architecture, compiler implementation and language design. Type systems vary a lot between languages, with perhaps the biggest variations in their compile-time syntactic and run-time operational implementations. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Static_typing   (2801 words)

Magazine (disambiguation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Magazine (firearm), a chamber for the ammunition for a single firearm. Photocopier magazine, the tray in a photocopier where blank paper is taken from. Magazine (artillery), a item or place within which ammunition is stored. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Magazine_type   (192 words)

File format - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Other file formats, however, are designed for storage of several different types of data: the GIF format supports storage of both still images and simple animations, and the QuickTime format can act as a container for many different types of multimedia. These were originally intended as a way of identifying what type of file was attached to an e-mail, independent of the source and target operating systems. Many file formats, including some of the most well-known file formats, have a published specification document (often with a reference implementation) that describes exactly how the data is to be encoded, and which can be used to determine whether or not a particular program treats a particular file format correctly. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/File_type   (1766 words)

Type certificate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia When the holder decides to stop supporting the aircraft type (due to many reasons mainly economics), the type certificate is returned to the regulators and the remaining aircraft fleet permanently grounded. Upon successful completion of the certification program, the original type certificate is amended to include the new variant (normally denoted by a new model number additional to the original type designation). Before STCs are issued, procedures similar to type certificate changes for new variants are followed, likely including thorough flight tests. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Type_certificate   (1165 words)

Dumb terminal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A dumb terminal in computing refers to a computer terminal that has limited functionality relative to other types of "smart" computer terminals. This type of dumb terminal is still supported on modern Unix-like systems by setting the environment variable TERM to dumb. In this context dumb terminals are sometimes dubbed glass teletypes, for they essentially have the same limited functionality as does a teletype. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Dumb_terminal   (227 words)
