The term \"rendering\" is analogous to the concept of an <a href=\"/wiki/Artist%27s_impression\" title=\"Artist's impression\">artist's impression</a> of a scene. The term \"rendering\" is also used to describe the process of calculating effects in a video editing program to produce the final video output.\n</p><p>A <a href=\"/wiki/Application_software\" title=\"Application software\">software application</a> or <a href=\"/wiki/Component-based_software_engineering\" title=\"Component-based software engineering\">component</a> that performs rendering is called a <b>rendering <a href=\"/wiki/Software_engine\" title=\"Software engine\">engine</a></b>,<ref>{{cite web | url=https://arvisual.eu/dictionary/rendering-engine/#:~:text=Definition,with%20a%20given%203D%20software. | title=What is a Rendering Engine? &#124; Dictionary | access-date=2024-02-21 | archive-date=2024-02-21 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240221024025/https://arvisual.eu/dictionary/rendering-engine/#:~:text=Definition,with%20a%20given%203D%20software. | url-status=live }}</ref> <b>render engine</b>, <b><a href=\"/wiki/Rendering_systems\" title=\"Rendering systems\">rendering system</a></b>, <b>graphics engine</b>, or simply a <b>renderer</b>.\n</p><p>Rendering is one of the major sub-topics of <a href=\"/wiki/3D_computer_graphics\" title=\"3D computer graphics\">3D computer graphics</a>, and in practice it is always connected to the others. It is the last major step in the <a href=\"/wiki/Graphics_pipeline\" title=\"Graphics pipeline\">graphics pipeline</a>, giving models and animation their final appearance. With the increasing sophistication of computer graphics since the 1970s, it has become a more distinct subject.\n</p><p>Rendering has uses in <a href=\"/wiki/Architectural_rendering\" title=\"Architectural rendering\">architecture</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Video_game\" title=\"Video game\">video games</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Simulation\" title=\"Simulation\">simulators</a>, movie and TV <a href=\"/wiki/Visual_effects\" title=\"Visual effects\">visual effects</a>, and design visualization, each employing a different balance of features and techniques. A wide variety of renderers are available for use. Some are integrated into larger modeling and animation packages, some are stand-alone, and some are free open-source projects. On the inside, a renderer is a carefully engineered program based on multiple disciplines, including <a href=\"/wiki/Optics\" title=\"Optics\">light physics</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Visual_system\" title=\"Visual system\">visual perception</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Mathematics\" title=\"Mathematics\">mathematics</a>, and <a href=\"/wiki/Software_engineering\" title=\"Software engineering\">software development</a>.\n</p><p>Though the technical details of rendering methods vary, the general challenges to overcome in producing a 2D image on a screen from a 3D representation stored in a scene file are handled by the <a href=\"/wiki/Graphics_pipeline\" title=\"Graphics pipeline\">graphics pipeline</a> in a rendering device such as a <a href=\"/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit\" title=\"Graphics processing unit\">GPU</a>. A GPU is a purpose-built device that assists a <a href=\"/wiki/Central_processing_unit\" title=\"Central processing unit\">CPU</a> in performing complex rendering calculations. If a scene is to look relatively realistic and predictable under virtual lighting, the rendering software must solve the <a href=\"/wiki/Rendering_equation\" title=\"Rendering equation\">rendering equation</a>. The rendering equation does not account for all lighting phenomena, but instead acts as a general lighting model for computer-generated imagery.\n</p><p>In the case of 3D graphics, scenes can be <a href=\"/wiki/Pre-rendered\" title=\"Pre-rendered\">pre-rendered</a> or generated in realtime. Pre-rendering is a slow, computationally intensive process that is typically used for movie creation, where scenes can be generated ahead of time, while <a href=\"/wiki/Real-time_computer_graphics\" title=\"Real-time computer graphics\">real-time</a> rendering is often done for 3D video games and other applications that must dynamically create scenes. 3D <a href=\"/wiki/Hardware_accelerators\" title=\"Hardware accelerators\">hardware accelerators</a> can improve realtime rendering performance.\n</p>", "<h2> Features </h2>\n<p>A rendered image can be understood in terms of a number of visible features.

Historically, inputs for both 2D and 3D rendering were usually <a href=\"/wiki/Text_file\" title=\"Text file\">text files</a>, which are easier than binary files for humans to edit and understand. For 3D graphics, text formats have largely been supplanted by more efficient <a href=\"/wiki/Binary_file\" title=\"Binary file\">binary formats</a>, and by <a href=\"/wiki/API\" title=\"API\">APIs</a> which allow interactive applications to communicate directly with a rendering component without generating a file on disk (although a scene description is usually still created in memory prior to rendering).{{r|n=Raghavachary2005|loc=1.2, 3.2.6, 3.3.1, 3.3.7}}\n</p><p>Traditional rendering algorithms use geometric descriptions of 3D scenes or 2D images. Applications and algorithms that render <a href=\"/wiki/Visualization_%28graphics%29\" title=\"Visualization (graphics)\">visualizations</a> of data scanned from the real world, or scientific <a href=\"/wiki/Computer_simulation\" title=\"Computer simulation\">simulations</a>, may require different types of input data.\n</p><p>The <a href=\"/wiki/PostScript\" title=\"PostScript\">PostScript</a> format (which is often credited with the rise of <a href=\"/wiki/Desktop_publishing\" title=\"Desktop publishing\">desktop publishing</a>) provides a standardized, interoperable way to describe 2D graphics and <a href=\"/wiki/Page_layout\" title=\"Page layout\">page layout</a>. The <a href=\"/wiki/SVG\" title=\"SVG\">Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)</a> format is also text-based, and the <a href=\"/wiki/PDF\" title=\"PDF\">PDF</a> format uses the PostScript language internally. In contrast, although many 3D graphics file formats have been standardized (including text-based formats such as <a href=\"/wiki/VRML\" title=\"VRML\">VRML</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/X3D\" title=\"X3D\">X3D</a>), different rendering applications typically use formats tailored to their needs, and this has led to a proliferation of proprietary and open formats, with binary files being more common.{{r|n=Raghavachary2005|loc=3.2.3, 3.2.5, 3.3.7}}{{r|n=PSRef|p=vii}}{{r|n=MDN_SVG}}{{r|n=Hughes2014|loc=16.5.2.}}{{r|n=BlenderImportExport}}\n</p><h3> 2D vector graphics </h3>\n<p>A <a

storing individual 3D objects or \"<a href=\"/wiki/3D_modeling\" title=\"3D modeling\">models</a>\". These can be imported into a larger scene, or loaded on-demand by rendering software or games. A realistic scene may require hundreds of items like household objects, vehicles, and trees, and <a href=\"/wiki/Environment_artist\" title=\"Environment artist\">3D artists</a> often utilize large libraries of models. In game production, these models (along with other data such as textures, audio files, and animations) are referred to as \"<a href=\"/wiki/Digital_asset\" title=\"Digital asset\">assets</a>\".{{r|n=BlenderImportExport}}{{r|n=Dunlop2014|loc=Ch. 4}}\n</p><h3> Volumetric data </h3>\n<p>Scientific and engineering <a href=\"/wiki/Visualization_%28graphics%29\" title=\"Visualization (graphics)\">visualization</a> often requires rendering <a href=\"/wiki/Voxel\" title=\"Voxel\">volumetric data</a> generated by 3D scans or <a href=\"/wiki/Computer_simulation\" title=\"Computer simulation\">simulations</a>. Perhaps the most common source of such data is medical <a href=\"/wiki/CT_scan\" title=\"CT scan\">CT</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging\" title=\"Magnetic resonance imaging\">MRI</a> scans, which need to be rendered for diagnosis. Volumetric data can be extremely large, and requires <a href=\"/wiki/OpenVDB\" title=\"OpenVDB\">specialized data formats</a> to store it efficiently, particularly if the volume is <i><a href=\"/wiki/Sparse_matrix\" title=\"Sparse matrix\">sparse</a></i> (with empty regions that do not contain data).{{r|n=AkenineMöller2018|loc=14.3.1}}{{r|n=OpenVDBAbout}}{{r|n=Museth2013}}\n</p><p>Before rendering, <a href=\"/wiki/Level_set\" title=\"Level set\">level sets</a> for volumetric data can be extracted and converted into a mesh of triangles, e.g. by using the <a href=\"/wiki/Marching_cubes\" title=\"Marching cubes\">marching cubes</a> algorithm. Algorithms have also been developed that work directly with volumetric data, for example to render realistic depictions of the way light is scattered and absorbed by clouds and smoke, and this type of volumetric rendering is used extensively in visual effects for movies. When rendering lower-resolution volumetric data without interpolation, the individual cubes or \"<a href=\"/wiki/Voxel\" title=\"Voxel\">voxels</a>\" may be visible, an effect sometimes used deliberately for game graphics.{{r|n=Bridson2015|loc=4.6}}{{r|n=AkenineMöller2018|loc=13.10, Ch. 14, 16.1}}\n</p><h3> Photogrammetry and scanning </h3>\n<p>Photographs of real world objects can be incorporated into a rendered scene by using them as <a href=\"/wiki/Texture_mapping\" title=\"Texture mapping\">textures</a> for 3D objects. Photos of a scene can also be stitched together to create <a href=\"/wiki/Panorama\" title=\"Panorama\">panoramic images</a> or <a href=\"/wiki/Reflection_mapping\" title=\"Reflection mapping\">environment maps</a>, which allow the scene to be rendered very efficiently but only from a single viewpoint. Scanning of real objects and scenes using <a href=\"/wiki/Structured-light_3D_scanner\" title=\"Structured-light 3D scanner\">structured light</a> or <a href=\"/wiki/Lidar\" title=\"Lidar\">lidar</a> produces <a href=\"/wiki/Point_cloud\" title=\"Point cloud\">point clouds</a> consisting of the coordinates of millions of individual points in space, sometimes along with color information. These point clouds may either be rendered directly or <a href=\"/wiki/Point_cloud%23Conversion_to_3D_surfaces\" title=\"Point cloud#Conversion to 3D surfaces\">converted into meshes</a> before rendering. (Note: \"point cloud\" sometimes also refers to a minimalist rendering style that can be used for any 3D geometry, similar to wireframe rendering.){{r|n=AkenineMöller2018|loc=13.3, 13.9}}{{r|n=Raghavachary2005|loc=1.3}}\n</p><h3> Neural approximations and light fields </h3>\n<p>A more recent, experimental approach is description of scenes using <a href=\"/wiki/Neural_radiance_field\" title=\"Neural radiance field\">radiance fields</a> which define the color, intensity, and direction of incoming light at each point in space. (This is conceptually similar to, but not identical to, the <a href=\"/wiki/Light_field\" title=\"Light field\">light field</a> recorded by a <a href=\"/wiki/Holography\" title=\"Holography\">hologram</a>.) For any useful resolution, the amount of data in a radiance field is so large that it is impractical to represent it directly as volumetric data, and an <a href=\"/wiki/Approximation\" title=\"Approximation\">approximation</a> function must be found. <a href=\"/wiki/Deep_learning\" title=\"Deep learning\">Neural networks</a> are typically used to generate and evaluate these approximations, sometimes using video frames, or a collection of photographs of a scene taken at different angles, as \"<a href=\"/wiki/Training%2C_validation%2C_and_test_data_sets%23Training_data_set\" title=\"Training, validation, and test data sets#Training data set\">training data</a>\".{{r|n=Schmid2023}}{{r|n=Mildenhall2020}}\n</p><p>Algorithms related to neural networks have recently been used to find approximations of a scene as <a href=\"/wiki/Gaussian_splatting\" title=\"Gaussian splatting\">3D Gaussians</a>. The resulting representation is similar to a <a href=\"/wiki/Point_cloud\" title=\"Point cloud\">point cloud</a>, except that it uses fuzzy, partially-transparent blobs of varying dimensions and orientations instead of points. As with <a href=\"/wiki/Neural_radiance_field\" title=\"Neural radiance field\">neural radiance fields</a>, these approximations are often generated from photographs or video

This type of illumination is called <i>indirect light</i>, <i>environment lighting</i>, or <i>diffuse lighting</i>, and the problem of rendering it realistically is called <i>global illumination</i>. Rasterization and basic forms of ray tracing (other than distribution ray tracing and path tracing) can only roughly approximate indirect light, e.g. by adding a uniform \"ambient\" lighting amount chosen by the artist. Radiosity techniques are also suited to rendering scenes with <i>area lights</i> such as rectangular fluorescent lighting panels, which are difficult for rasterization and traditional ray tracing. Radiosity is considered a <a href=\"/wiki/Physically_based_rendering\" title=\"Physically based rendering\">physically-based method</a>, meaning that it aims to simulate the flow of light in an environment using equations and experimental data from physics, however it often assumes that all surfaces are opaque and perfectly <a href=\"/wiki/Lambertian_reflectance\" title=\"Lambertian reflectance\">Lambertian</a>, which reduces realism and limits its applicability.{{r|AkenineMöller2018|loc=10, 11.2.1}}{{r|Glassner95|p=888, 893}}{{r|Goral1984}}\n</p><p>In the original radiosity method (first proposed in 1984) now called <i>classical radiosity</i>, surfaces and lights in the scene are split into pieces called <i>patches</i>, a process called <i><a href=\"/wiki/Mesh_generation\" title=\"Mesh generation\">meshing</a></i> (this step makes it a <a href=\"/wiki/Finite_element_method\" title=\"Finite element method\">finite element method</a>). The rendering code must then determine what fraction of the light being emitted or <a href=\"/wiki/Diffuse_reflection\" title=\"Diffuse reflection\">diffusely reflected</a> (scattered) by each patch is received by each other patch. These fractions are called <i>form factors</i> or <i><a href=\"/wiki/View_factor\" title=\"View factor\">view factors</a></i> (first used in engineering to model <a href=\"/wiki/Thermal_radiation\" title=\"Thermal radiation\">radiative heat transfer</a>).

For real-time rendering, this value (or more commonly the <a href=\"/wiki/Irradiance\" title=\"Irradiance\">irradiance</a>, which does not depend on local surface albedo) can be pre-computed and stored in a texture (called an <i>irradiance map</i>) or stored as vertex data for 3D models.

The number of iterations (bounces) required is dependent on the scene, not the number of patches, so the total work is proportional to the square of the number of patches (compared to the cube for <a href=\"/wiki/Gaussian_elimination\" title=\"Gaussian elimination\">Gaussian elimination</a>). Form factors may be recomputed when they are needed, to avoid storing a complete matrix in memory.{{r|Glassner95|pp=901, 907}}\n</p><p>The quality of rendering is often determined by the size of the patches, e.g. very fine meshes are needed to depict the edges of shadows accurately. An important improvement is <i>hierarchical radiosity</i>, which uses a coarser mesh (larger patches) for simulating the transfer of light between surfaces that are far away from one another, and adaptively sub-divides the patches as needed. This allows radiosity to be used for much larger and more complex scenes.{{r|Glassner95|pp=975, 939}}\n</p><p>Alternative and extended versions of the radiosity method support non-Lambertian surfaces, such as glossy surfaces and mirrors, and sometimes use volumes or \"clusters\" of objects as well as surface patches.

This type of illumination is called <i>indirect light</i>, <i>environment lighting</i>, or <i>diffuse lighting</i>, and the problem of rendering it realistically is called <i>global illumination</i>. Rasterization and basic forms of ray tracing (other than distribution ray tracing and path tracing) can only roughly approximate indirect light, e.g. by adding a uniform \"ambient\" lighting amount chosen by the artist. Radiosity techniques are also suited to rendering scenes with <i>area lights</i> such as rectangular fluorescent lighting panels, which are difficult for rasterization and traditional ray tracing. Radiosity is considered a <a href=\"/wiki/Physically_based_rendering\" title=\"Physically based rendering\">physically-based method</a>, meaning that it aims to simulate the flow of light in an environment using equations and experimental data from physics, however it often assumes that all surfaces are opaque and perfectly <a href=\"/wiki/Lambertian_reflectance\" title=\"Lambertian reflectance\">Lambertian</a>, which reduces realism and limits its applicability.{{r|AkenineMöller2018|loc=10, 11.2.1}}{{r|Glassner95|p=888, 893}}{{r|Goral1984}}\n</p><p>In the original radiosity method (first proposed in 1984) now called <i>classical radiosity</i>, surfaces and lights in the scene are split into pieces called <i>patches</i>, a process called <i><a href=\"/wiki/Mesh_generation\" title=\"Mesh generation\">meshing</a></i> (this step makes it a <a href=\"/wiki/Finite_element_method\" title=\"Finite element method\">finite element method</a>). The rendering code must then determine what fraction of the light being emitted or <a href=\"/wiki/Diffuse_reflection\" title=\"Diffuse reflection\">diffusely reflected</a> (scattered) by each patch is received by each other patch. These fractions are called <i>form factors</i> or <i><a href=\"/wiki/View_factor\" title=\"View factor\">view factors</a></i> (first used in engineering to model <a href=\"/wiki/Thermal_radiation\" title=\"Thermal radiation\">radiative heat transfer</a>). The form factors are multiplied by the <a href=\"/wiki/Albedo\" title=\"Albedo\">albedo</a> of the receiving surface and put in a <a href=\"/wiki/Matrix_%28mathematics%29\" title=\"Matrix (mathematics)\">matrix</a>. The lighting in the scene can then be expressed as a matrix equation (or equivalently a <a href=\"/wiki/System_of_linear_equations\" title=\"System of linear equations\">system of linear equations</a>) that can be solved by methods from <a href=\"/wiki/Linear_algebra\" title=\"Linear algebra\">linear algebra</a>.{{r|Goral1984}}{{r|Dutré2003|p=46}}{{r|Glassner95|p=888, 896}}\n</p><p>Solving the radiosity equation gives the total amount of light emitted and reflected by each patch, which is divided by area to get a value called <i><a href=\"/wiki/Radiosity_%28radiometry%29\" title=\"Radiosity (radiometry)\">radiosity</a></i> that can be used when rasterizing or ray tracing to determine the color of pixels corresponding to visible parts of the patch. For real-time rendering, this value (or more commonly the <a href=\"/wiki/Irradiance\" title=\"Irradiance\">irradiance</a>, which does not depend on local surface albedo) can be pre-computed and stored in a texture (called an <i>irradiance map</i>) or stored as vertex data for 3D models. This feature was used in architectural visualization software to allow real-time walk-throughs of a building interior after computing the lighting.{{r|Glassner95|p=890}}{{r|AkenineMöller2018|loc=11.5.1}}{{r|Cohen1993|p=332}}\n</p><p>The large size of the matrices used in classical radiosity (the square of the number of patches) causes problems for realistic scenes.

The number of iterations (bounces) required is dependent on the scene, not the number of patches, so the total work is proportional to the square of the number of patches (compared to the cube for <a href=\"/wiki/Gaussian_elimination\" title=\"Gaussian elimination\">Gaussian elimination</a>). Form factors may be recomputed when they are needed, to avoid storing a complete matrix in memory.{{r|Glassner95|pp=901, 907}}\n</p><p>The quality of rendering is often determined by the size of the patches, e.g. very fine meshes are needed to depict the edges of shadows accurately. An important improvement is <i>hierarchical radiosity</i>, which uses a coarser mesh (larger patches) for simulating the transfer of light between surfaces that are far away from one another, and adaptively sub-divides the patches as needed.

Below is an example of a namespace in C++:\n</p><p><syntaxhighlight lang=\"cpp\">\n#include &lt;iostream&gt;\n</syntaxhighlight></p>// This is how one brings a name into the current scope.

An identifier defined in a namespace is associated only with that namespace. The same identifier can be independently defined in multiple namespaces. That is, an identifier defined in one namespace may or may not have the same meaning as the same identifier defined in another namespace. Languages that support namespaces specify the rules that determine to which namespace an identifier (not its definition) belongs.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/N/namespace.html |title=A namespace is \"a logical grouping of the names used within a program.\"|date=10 April 2002 | publisher=Webopedia.com| access-date=2011-07-26}}</ref>\n</p><p>This concept can be illustrated with an analogy. Imagine that two companies, X and Y, each assign ID numbers to their employees. X should not have two employees with the same ID number, and likewise for Y; but it is not a problem for the same ID number to be used at both companies. For example, if Bill works for company X and Jane works for company Y, then it is not a problem for each of them to be employee #123. In this analogy, the ID number is the identifier, and the company serves as the namespace. It does not cause problems for the same identifier to identify a different person in each namespace.\n</p><p>In large <a href=\"/wiki/Computer_program\" title=\"Computer program\">computer programs</a> or documents it is common to have hundreds or thousands of identifiers. Namespaces (or a similar technique, see <a href=\"/wiki/%23Emulating_namespaces\" title=\"#Emulating namespaces\">Emulating namespaces</a>) provide a mechanism for hiding local identifiers. They provide a means of grouping logically related identifiers into corresponding namespaces, thereby making the system more <a href=\"/wiki/Modularity_%28programming%29\" title=\"Modularity (programming)\">modular</a>.\n</p><p><a href=\"/wiki/Data_storage_device\" title=\"Data storage device\">Data storage devices</a> and many modern <a href=\"/wiki/Programming_language\" title=\"Programming language\">programming languages</a> support namespaces. Storage devices use directories (or folders) as namespaces. This allows two files with the same name to be stored on the device so long as they are stored in different directories. In some programming languages (e.g. <a href=\"/wiki/C%2B%2B\" title=\"C++\">C++</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Python_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"Python (programming language)\">Python</a>), the identifiers naming namespaces are themselves associated with an enclosing namespace. Thus, in these languages namespaces can nest, forming a namespace <a href=\"/wiki/Tree_%28data_structure%29\" title=\"Tree (data structure)\">tree</a>. At the root of this tree is the unnamed <b>global namespace</b>.\n</p><h4>Use in common languages</h4>\n<h5>C</h5>\n<p>It is possible to use anonymous structs as namespaces in <a href=\"/wiki/C_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"C (programming language)\">C</a> since <a href=\"/wiki/C99\" title=\"C99\">C99</a>.\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"c\">\n// helper.c\nstatic int _add(int a, int b) {\n<pre> return a + b;\n</pre>}\n</syntaxhighlight></p>const struct {\n<pre> double pi;\n int (*add) (int, int);\n</pre>} helper = { 3.14, _add };\n// helper.h\nconst struct {\n<pre> double pi;\n int (*add) (int, int);\n</pre>} helper;\n// main.c\n#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;\n#include \"helper.h\"\nint main(){\n<pre> printf(\"3 + 2 = %d\\n\", helper.add(3, 2));\n printf(\"pi is %f\\n\", helper.pi);\n</pre>}\n\n<h5>C++</h5>\n<p>In <a href=\"/wiki/C%2B%2B\" title=\"C++\">C++</a>, a namespace is defined with a namespace block.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/namespaces/ |title=Namespaces allow to group entities like classes, objects and functions under a name. |publisher=Cplusplus.com |access-date=2011-07-26}}</ref>\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"cpp\">\nnamespace abc {\n<pre> int bar;\n</pre>}\n</syntaxhighlight>\nWithin this block, identifiers can be used exactly as they are declared. Outside of this block, the namespace specifier must be prefixed. For example, outside of <code>namespace abc</code>, <code>bar</code> must be written <code>abc::bar</code> to be accessed. C++ includes another construct that makes this verbosity unnecessary. By adding the line\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"cpp\">\nusing namespace abc;\n</syntaxhighlight>\nto a piece of code, the prefix <code>abc::</code> is no longer needed.\n</p><p>Identifiers that are not explicitly declared within a namespace are considered to be in the global namespace.\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"cpp\">\nint foo;\n</syntaxhighlight>\nThese identifiers can be used exactly as they are declared, or, since the global namespace is unnamed, the namespace specifier <code>::</code> can be prefixed. For example, <code>foo</code> can also be written <code>::foo</code>.\n</p><p>Namespace resolution in C++ is hierarchical. This means that within the hypothetical namespace <code>food::soup</code>, the identifier <code>chicken</code> refers to <code>food::soup::chicken</code>. If <code>food::soup::chicken</code> doesn't exist, it then refers to <code>food::chicken</code>. If neither <code>food::soup::chicken</code> nor <code>food::chicken</code> exist, <code>chicken</code> refers to <code>::chicken</code>, an identifier in the global namespace.\n</p><p>Namespaces in C++ are most often used to avoid <a href=\"/wiki/Naming_collision\" title=\"Naming collision\">naming collisions</a>. Although namespaces are used extensively in recent C++ code, most older code does not use this facility because it did not exist in early versions of the language. For example, the entire <a href=\"/wiki/C%2B%2B_Standard_Library\" title=\"C++ Standard Library\">C++ Standard Library</a> is defined within <code>namespace std</code>, but before standardization many components were originally in the global namespace. A programmer can insert the <code>using</code> directive to bypass namespace resolution requirements and obtain backwards compatibility with older code that expects all identifiers to be in the global namespace. However the use of the <code>using</code> directive for reasons other than backwards compatibility (e.g., convenience) is considered to be against good code practices.\n</p><h5>Java</h5>\n<p>In <a href=\"/wiki/Java_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"Java (programming language)\">Java</a>, the idea of a namespace is embodied in <a href=\"/wiki/Java_package\" title=\"Java package\">Java packages</a>. All code belongs to a package, although that package need not be explicitly named. Code from other packages is accessed by prefixing the package name before the appropriate identifier, for example <code>class String</code> in <code>package <a href=\"/wiki/Java.lang\" title=\"Java.lang\">java.lang</a></code> can be referred to as <code>java.lang.String</code> (this is known as the <a href=\"/wiki/Fully_qualified_name\" title=\"Fully qualified name\">fully qualified class name</a>). Like C++, Java offers a construct that makes it unnecessary to type the package name (<code>import</code>). However, certain features (such as <a href=\"/wiki/Reflection_%28computer_science%29\" title=\"Reflection (computer science)\">reflection</a>) require the programmer to use the fully qualified name.\n</p><p>Unlike C++, namespaces in Java are not hierarchical as far as the syntax of the language is concerned. However, packages are named in a hierarchical manner. For example, all packages beginning with <code>java</code> are a part of the <a href=\"/wiki/Java_platform\" title=\"Java platform\">Java platform</a>—the package {{Javadoc:SE|package=java.lang|java/lang}} contains classes core to the language, and {{Javadoc:SE|package=java.lang.reflect|java/lang/reflect}} contains core classes specifically relating to reflection.\n</p><p>In Java (and <a href=\"/wiki/Ada_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"Ada (programming language)\">Ada</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/C_Sharp_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"C Sharp (programming language)\">C#</a>, and others), namespaces/packages express semantic categories of code. For example, in C#, <code>namespace System</code> contains code provided by the system (the <a href=\"/wiki/.NET_Framework\" title=\".NET Framework\">.NET Framework</a>). How specific these categories are and how deep the hierarchies go differ from language to language.\n</p><p><a href=\"/wiki/Function_%28programming%29\" title=\"Function (programming)\">Function</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Class_%28computer_science%29\" title=\"Class (computer science)\">class</a> <a href=\"/wiki/Scope_%28programming%29\" title=\"Scope (programming)\">scopes</a> can be viewed as implicit namespaces that are inextricably linked with visibility, accessibility, and <a href=\"/wiki/Object_lifetime\" title=\"Object lifetime\">object lifetime</a>.\n</p><h5>C#</h5>\n<p>Namespaces are heavily used in C# language. All .NET Framework classes are organized in namespaces, to be used more clearly and to avoid chaos. Furthermore, custom namespaces are extensively used by programmers, both to organize their work and to avoid <a href=\"/wiki/Naming_collision\" title=\"Naming collision\">naming collisions</a>.\nWhen referencing a class, one should specify either its fully qualified name, which means namespace followed by the class name,\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"c#\">\nSystem.Console.WriteLine(\"Hello World!\");\nint i = System.Convert.ToInt32(\"123\");\n</syntaxhighlight>\n</p><p>or add a <b>using</b> statement. This, eliminates the need to mention the complete name of all classes in that namespace.\n</p><p><syntaxhighlight lang=\"c#\">\nusing System;\n</syntaxhighlight></p>Console.WriteLine(\"Hello World!\");\nint i = Convert.ToInt32(\"123\");\n\n<p>In the above examples, <b>System</b> is a namespace, and <b>Console</b> and <b>Convert</b> are classes defined within <b>System</b>.\n</p><p><a href=\"/wiki/File:Dotnet-system-namespace-uml.svg\" title=\"Dotnet-system-namespace-uml.svg\">UML diagram with a Console and a Convert class.</a>\n</p><h5>Python</h5>\n<p>In <a href=\"/wiki/Python_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"Python (programming language)\">Python</a>, namespaces are defined by the individual modules, and since modules can be contained in hierarchical packages, then namespaces are hierarchical too.<ref>{{cite web|title=6.

Use of this form of import, although supported within the language, is generally discouraged as it pollutes the namespace of the calling module and will cause already defined names to be overwritten in the case of name clashes.<ref><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html\">https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html</a> \"in general the practice of importing * from a module or package is frowned upon\"</ref>\n</p><p>Python also supports <code>import x as y</code> as a way of providing an alias or alternative name for use by the calling module:\n</p><p><syntaxhighlight lang=\"numpy\">\nimport numpy as np\n</syntaxhighlight></p>a = np.arange(1000)\n\n<h5> XML namespace </h5>\n<p>{{Main|XML namespace}}\n</p><p>In <a href=\"/wiki/XML\" title=\"XML\">XML</a>, the XML namespace specification enables the names of elements and attributes in an XML document to be unique, similar to the role of namespaces in programming languages. Using XML namespaces, XML documents may contain element or attribute names from more than one XML vocabulary.\n</p><h5> PHP </h5>\n<p>Namespaces were introduced into <a href=\"/wiki/Php\" title=\"Php\">PHP</a> from version 5.3 onwards. Naming collision of classes, functions and variables can be avoided.\nIn <a href=\"/wiki/PHP\" title=\"PHP\">PHP</a>, a namespace is defined with a namespace block.\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"php\">\n# File phpstar/foobar.php\n</syntaxhighlight></p>namespace phpstar;\nclass FooBar\n{\n<pre> public function foo(): void\n {\n echo 'Hello world, from function foo';\n }\n</pre>\n<pre> public function bar(): void\n {\n echo 'Hello world, from function bar';\n }\n</pre>}\n\n<p>We can reference a PHP namespace with the following different ways:\n<syntaxhighlight lang=\"php\">\n# File index.php\n</syntaxhighlight></p># Include the file\ninclude \"phpstar/foobar.php\";\n# Option 1: directly prefix the class name with the namespace\n$obj_foobar = new \\phpstar\\FooBar();\n# Option 2: import the namespace\nuse phpstar\\FooBar;\n$obj_foobar = new FooBar();\n# Option 2a: import &amp; alias the namespace\nuse phpstar\\FooBar as FB;\n$obj_foobar = new FB();\n# Access the properties and methods with regular way\n$obj_foobar-&gt;foo();\n$obj_foobar-&gt;bar();\n\n<p><a href=\"/wiki/File:UML_phpstar_package_diagram.svg\" title=\"UML phpstar package diagram.svg\">UML diagram of the phpstar package with the class FooBar.</a>\n</p><h3>Emulating namespaces</h3>\n<p>In programming languages lacking language support for namespaces, namespaces can be emulated to some extent by using an <a href=\"/wiki/Identifier_naming_convention\" title=\"Identifier naming convention\">identifier naming convention</a>. For example, <a href=\"/wiki/C_%28programming_language%29\" title=\"C (programming language)\">C</a> libraries such as <a href=\"/wiki/Libpng\" title=\"Libpng\">libpng</a> often use a fixed prefix for all functions and variables that are part of their exposed interface. Libpng exposes identifiers such as:\n</p><pre>png_create_write_struct\npng_get_signature\npng_read_row\npng_set_invalid\n</pre>\n<p>This <a href=\"/wiki/Naming_conventions_%28programming%29\" title=\"Naming conventions (programming)\">naming convention</a> provides reasonable assurance that the <a href=\"/wiki/Identifier\" title=\"Identifier\">identifiers</a> are unique and can therefore be used in larger programs without <a href=\"/wiki/Naming_collision\" title=\"Naming collision\">naming collisions</a>.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.informit.com/guides/content.aspx?g=cplusplus&seqNum=286 |title=Why I Hate Namespaces |author=Danny Kalev |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160709115609/http://www.informit.com/guides/content.aspx?g=cplusplus&seqNum=286 |archive-date=2016-07-09 }}</ref> Likewise, many packages originally written in <a href=\"/wiki/Fortran\" title=\"Fortran\">Fortran</a> (e.g., <a href=\"/wiki/BLAS\" title=\"BLAS\">BLAS</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/LAPACK\" title=\"LAPACK\">LAPACK</a>) reserve the first few letters of a function's name to indicate which group it belongs to.\n</p><p>This technique has several drawbacks:\n<ul><li> It doesn't scale well to nested namespaces; identifiers become excessively long since all uses of the identifiers must be <a href=\"/wiki/Fully_qualified_name\" title=\"Fully qualified name\">fully namespace-qualified</a>.\n</li><li> Individuals or organizations may use inconsistent naming conventions, potentially introducing unwanted obfuscation.\n</li><li> Compound or \"query-based\" operations on groups of identifiers, based on the namespaces in which they are declared, are rendered unwieldy or unfeasible.\n</li><li> In languages with restricted identifier length, the use of prefixes limits the number of characters that can be used to identify what the function does.

They form various types of oxides, such as simple <a href=\"/wiki/Oxide\" title=\"Oxide\">oxides</a> (containing the O²⁻ ion), <a href=\"/wiki/Peroxide\" title=\"Peroxide\">peroxides</a> (containing the {{chem2|O2(2-)}} ion, where there is a <a href=\"/wiki/Single_bond\" title=\"Single bond\">single bond</a> between the two oxygen atoms), <a href=\"/wiki/Superoxide\" title=\"Superoxide\">superoxides</a> (containing the {{chem2|O2-}} ion), and many others. Lithium burns in air to form <a href=\"/wiki/Lithium_oxide\" title=\"Lithium oxide\">lithium oxide</a>, but sodium reacts with oxygen to form a mixture of <a href=\"/wiki/Sodium_oxide\" title=\"Sodium oxide\">sodium oxide</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Sodium_peroxide\" title=\"Sodium peroxide\">sodium peroxide</a>. Potassium forms a mixture of <a href=\"/wiki/Potassium_peroxide\" title=\"Potassium peroxide\">potassium peroxide</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Potassium_superoxide\" title=\"Potassium superoxide\">potassium superoxide</a>, while rubidium and caesium form the superoxide exclusively. Their reactivity increases going down the group: while lithium, sodium and potassium merely burn in air, rubidium and caesium are <a href=\"/wiki/Pyrophoric\" title=\"Pyrophoric\">pyrophoric</a> (spontaneously catch fire in air).<ref name=\"alkalireact\" />\n</p><p>The smaller alkali metals tend to polarise the larger anions (the peroxide and superoxide) due to their small size. This attracts the electrons in the more complex anions towards one of its constituent oxygen atoms, forming an oxide ion and an oxygen atom. This causes lithium to form the oxide exclusively on reaction with oxygen at room temperature. This effect becomes drastically weaker for the larger sodium and potassium, allowing them to form the less stable peroxides. Rubidium and caesium, at the bottom of the group, are so large that even the least stable superoxides can form. Because the superoxide releases the most energy when formed, the superoxide is preferentially formed for the larger alkali metals where the more complex anions are not polarised. The oxides and peroxides for these alkali metals do exist, but do not form upon direct reaction of the metal with oxygen at standard conditions.<ref name=\"alkalireact\" /> In addition, the small size of the Li⁺ and O²⁻ ions contributes to their forming a stable ionic lattice structure. Under controlled conditions, however, all the alkali metals, with the exception of francium, are known to form their oxides, peroxides, and superoxides.

This attracts the electrons in the more complex anions towards one of its constituent oxygen atoms, forming an oxide ion and an oxygen atom. This causes lithium to form the oxide exclusively on reaction with oxygen at room temperature. This effect becomes drastically weaker for the larger sodium and potassium, allowing them to form the less stable peroxides. Rubidium and caesium, at the bottom of the group, are so large that even the least stable superoxides can form. Because the superoxide releases the most energy when formed, the superoxide is preferentially formed for the larger alkali metals where the more complex anions are not polarised. The oxides and peroxides for these alkali metals do exist, but do not form upon direct reaction of the metal with oxygen at standard conditions.<ref name=\"alkalireact\" /> In addition, the small size of the Li⁺ and O²⁻ ions contributes to their forming a stable ionic lattice structure.

The original Ariane — Ariane 5G — used the EPS (<i>Étage à Propergols Stockables</i> — Storable Propellant Stage), which was fueled by <a href=\"/wiki/Monomethylhydrazine\" title=\"Monomethylhydrazine\">monomethylhydrazine</a> (MMH) and <a href=\"/wiki/Nitrogen_tetroxide\" title=\"Nitrogen tetroxide\">nitrogen tetroxide</a>, containing {{cvt|10000|kg}} of <a href=\"/wiki/Storable_propellant\" title=\"Storable propellant\">storable propellant</a>.

This was purely to test the engine, and occurred after the payloads had been deployed. The first operational use of restart capability as part of a mission came on 9 March 2008, when two burns were made to deploy the first <a href=\"/wiki/Automated_Transfer_Vehicle\" title=\"Automated Transfer Vehicle\">Automated Transfer Vehicle</a> (ATV) into a circular parking orbit, followed by a third burn after ATV deployment to de-orbit the stage. This procedure was repeated for all subsequent ATV flights.\n</p><p>Ariane 5ECA used the ESC (<i>Étage Supérieur Cryotechnique</i> — Cryogenic Upper Stage), which was fueled by liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. The ESC used the <a href=\"/wiki/HM7B\" title=\"HM7B\">HM7B</a> engine previously used in the Ariane 4 third stage. The propellent load of 14.7 tonne allowed the engine to burn for 945 seconds while providing 6.5 tonne of thrust. The ESC provided roll control during powered flight and full attitude control during payload separation using hydrogen gas thrusters. Oxygen gas thrusters allowed longitudinal acceleration after engine cutoff. The flight assembly included the Vehicle Equipment Bay, with flight electronics for the entire rocket, and the payload interface and structural support.<ref>European Space Agency, \"Ariane 5ECA\": <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"http://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Launch_vehicles/Ariane_5_ECA2\">http://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Launch_vehicles/Ariane_5_ECA2</a> Discussed in context of other launch vehicles in Gérard Maral, Michel Bousquet, and Zhili Sun, <i>Satellite Communications Systems: Systems, Techniques and Technology</i>, sixth edition, London: Wiley, 2020 {{ISBN|9781119382072}}</ref><ref><a href=\"https://www.arianespace.com/?popup=ariane-5-4\">ESC-A – Cryogenic upper stage</a>, accessed December 27, 2021</ref>\n</p><h3> Fairing </h3>\n<p>The payload and all upper stages were covered at launch by a fairing for aerodynamic stability and protection from heating during supersonic flight and acoustic loads.

This was purely to test the engine, and occurred after the payloads had been deployed. The first operational use of restart capability as part of a mission came on 9 March 2008, when two burns were made to deploy the first <a href=\"/wiki/Automated_Transfer_Vehicle\" title=\"Automated Transfer Vehicle\">Automated Transfer Vehicle</a> (ATV) into a circular parking orbit, followed by a third burn after ATV deployment to de-orbit the stage. This procedure was repeated for all subsequent ATV flights.\n</p><p>Ariane 5ECA used the ESC (<i>Étage Supérieur Cryotechnique</i> — Cryogenic Upper Stage), which was fueled by liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. The ESC used the <a href=\"/wiki/HM7B\" title=\"HM7B\">HM7B</a> engine previously used in the Ariane 4 third stage. The propellent load of 14.7 tonne allowed the engine to burn for 945 seconds while providing 6.5 tonne of thrust. The ESC provided roll control during powered flight and full attitude control during payload separation using hydrogen gas thrusters. Oxygen gas thrusters allowed longitudinal acceleration after engine cutoff. The flight assembly included the Vehicle Equipment Bay, with flight electronics for the entire rocket, and the payload interface and structural support.<ref>European Space Agency, \"Ariane 5ECA\": <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"http://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Launch_vehicles/Ariane_5_ECA2\">http://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Launch_vehicles/Ariane_5_ECA2</a> Discussed in context of other launch vehicles in Gérard Maral, Michel Bousquet, and Zhili Sun, <i>Satellite Communications Systems: Systems, Techniques and Technology</i>, sixth edition, London: Wiley, 2020 {{ISBN|9781119382072}}</ref><ref><a href=\"https://www.arianespace.com/?popup=ariane-5-4\">ESC-A – Cryogenic upper stage</a>, accessed December 27, 2021</ref>\n</p>", "<h3> Fairing </h3>\n<p>The payload and all upper stages were covered at launch by a fairing for aerodynamic stability and protection from heating during supersonic flight and acoustic loads.

This was an enormous county, including the northern part of present-day New York State as well as all of the present State of <a href=\"/wiki/Vermont\" title=\"Vermont\">Vermont</a> and, in theory, extending westward to the <a href=\"/wiki/Pacific_Ocean\" title=\"Pacific Ocean\">Pacific Ocean</a>. This county was reduced in size on July 3, 1766, by the creation of <a href=\"/wiki/Cumberland_County%2C_New_York\" title=\"Cumberland County, New York\">Cumberland County</a>, and further on March 16, 1770, by the creation of <a href=\"/wiki/Gloucester_County%2C_New_York\" title=\"Gloucester County, New York\">Gloucester County</a>, both containing territory now in Vermont.\n</p><p>On March 12, 1772, the remaining Albany County was split into three parts, one remaining under the name Albany County. <a href=\"/wiki/Tryon_County%2C_New_York\" title=\"Tryon County, New York\">Tryon County</a> contained the large western portion (and thus, since no western boundary was specified, theoretically still extended west to the Pacific). The eastern boundary of Tryon County was approximately five miles west of the present city of <a href=\"/wiki/Schenectady%2C_New_York\" title=\"Schenectady, New York\">Schenectady</a>, and the county included the <a href=\"/wiki/Mohawk_River\" title=\"Mohawk River\">Mohawk River</a> valley, the western part of the <a href=\"/wiki/Adirondack_Mountains\" title=\"Adirondack Mountains\">Adirondack Mountains</a> and the area west of the West Branch of the <a href=\"/wiki/Delaware_River\" title=\"Delaware River\">Delaware River</a>. The area then designated as Tryon County now includes 37 counties of New York State. The county was named for <a href=\"/wiki/William_Tryon\" title=\"William Tryon\">William Tryon</a>, colonial governor of New York. This western area was occupied largely by the <a href=\"/wiki/Onondaga_people\" title=\"Onondaga people\">Onondaga</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Oneida_people\" title=\"Oneida people\">Oneida</a> and other western nations of the <a href=\"/wiki/Iroquois_Confederacy\" title=\"Iroquois Confederacy\">Iroquois Confederacy</a>. The westernmost European settlements were in the area of Little Falls and present-day Herkimer.\n</p><p>During the unrest prior to the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War, feelings ran high in the Mohawk Valley, and there were local attacks by rebels against known Loyalists. Most of Tryon County's Loyalists fled to <a href=\"/wiki/Canada\" title=\"Canada\">Canada</a> before 1776, where they were later granted land by the Crown to develop what is now Ontario.\n</p><p>In 1784, following the peace treaty that ended the <a href=\"/wiki/American_Revolutionary_War\" title=\"American Revolutionary War\">American Revolutionary War</a>, Tryon County's name was changed to <a href=\"/wiki/Montgomery_County%2C_New_York\" title=\"Montgomery County, New York\">Montgomery County</a> to honor the general, <a href=\"/wiki/Richard_Montgomery\" title=\"Richard Montgomery\">Richard Montgomery</a>.

His works include operas, ballets, chamber music, secular and religious vocal pieces and orchestral compositions including nine symphonies, written over sixty years. Strongly influenced by <a href=\"/wiki/Tudor_music\" title=\"Tudor music\">Tudor music</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/English_folk-song\" title=\"English folk-song\">English folk-song</a>, his output marked a decisive break in British music from its German-dominated style of the 19th century.\n</p><p>Vaughan Williams was born to a well-to-do family with strong moral views and a progressive social outlook. Throughout his life he sought to be of service to his fellow citizens, and believed in making music as available as possible to everybody. He wrote many works for amateur and student performance. He was musically a late developer, not finding his true voice until his late thirties; his studies in 1907–1908 with the French composer <a href=\"/wiki/Maurice_Ravel\" title=\"Maurice Ravel\">Maurice Ravel</a> helped him clarify the textures of his music and free it from <a href=\"/wiki/Music_of_Germany\" title=\"Music of Germany\">Teutonic influences</a>.\n</p><p>Vaughan Williams is among the best-known British symphonists, noted for his very wide range of moods, from stormy and impassioned to tranquil, from mysterious to exuberant. Among the most familiar of his other concert works are <i><a href=\"/wiki/Fantasia_on_a_Theme_by_Thomas_Tallis\" title=\"Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis\">Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis</a></i> (1910) and <i><a href=\"/wiki/The_Lark_Ascending_%28Vaughan_Williams%29\" title=\"The Lark Ascending (Vaughan Williams)\">The Lark Ascending</a></i> (1914). His vocal works include hymns, folk-song arrangements and large-scale choral pieces. He wrote eight works for stage performance between 1919 and 1951. Although none of his operas became popular repertoire pieces, his ballet <i><a href=\"/wiki/Job:A_Masque_for_Dancing\" title=\"A Masque for Dancing\">Job: A Masque for Dancing</a></i> (1930) was successful and has been frequently staged.\n</p><p>Two episodes made notably deep impressions in Vaughan Williams's personal life. The <a href=\"/wiki/World_War_I\" title=\"World War I\">First World War</a>, in which he served in the army, had a lasting emotional effect. Twenty years later, though in his sixties and devotedly married, he was reinvigorated by a love affair with a much younger woman, who later became his second wife. He went on composing through his seventies and eighties, producing his last symphony months before his death at the age of eighty-five. His works have continued to be a staple of the British concert repertoire, and all his major compositions and many of the minor ones have been recorded.\n</p>", "<h2>Life and career</h2>\n<h3>Early years</h3>\n<p>Vaughan Williams was born at <a href=\"/wiki/Down_Ampney\" title=\"Down Ampney\">Down Ampney</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Gloucestershire\" title=\"Gloucestershire\">Gloucestershire</a>, the third child and younger son of the <a href=\"/wiki/Vicar\" title=\"Vicar\">vicar</a>, the Reverend Arthur Vaughan Williams (1834–1875), and his wife, Margaret, <i>née</i> Wedgwood (1842–1937).<ref name=\"dnb\">Frogley, Alain. <a href=\"http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/36636\">\"Williams, Ralph Vaughan (1872–1958)\"</a> {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924154226/http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/36636 |date=24 September 2015 }}, <i>Oxford Dictionary of National Biography</i>, Oxford University Press, retrieved 10 October 2015 {{ODNBsub}}</ref>{{refn|His siblings were Hervey (1869–1944) and Margaret (Meggie, 1870–1931).<ref>Vaughan Williams (1964), pp. 6–7</ref>|group= n}} His paternal forebears were of mixed English and Welsh descent; many of them went into the law or the <a href=\"/wiki/Church_of_England\" title=\"Church of England\">Church</a>.

Stanford emphasised the need for his students to be self-critical, but Vaughan Williams and Holst became, and remained, one another's most valued critics; each would play his latest composition to the other while still working on it. Vaughan Williams later observed, \"What one really learns from an Academy or College is not so much from one's official teachers as from one's fellow-students&nbsp;...

Pollen is produced by the male flower or by the male organs of <a href=\"/wiki/Monoecious\" title=\"Monoecious\">hermaphroditic</a> flowers.\n</p><p>Pollen does not move on its own and thus requires wind or animal pollinators to disperse the pollen to the <a href=\"/wiki/Stigma_%28botany%29\" title=\"Stigma (botany)\">stigma</a> of the same or nearby flowers. However, pollinators are rather selective in determining the flowers they choose to pollinate. This develops competition between flowers and as a result flowers must provide incentives to appeal to pollinators (unless the flower self-pollinates or is involved in wind pollination). Petals play a major role in competing to attract pollinators. Henceforth pollination dispersal could occur and the survival of many species of flowers could prolong.\n</p>", "<h2>Functions and purposes</h2>\n<p>Petals have various functions and purposes depending on the type of plant.

The dye is only created where the couplers are. Thus the development chemical must travel a short distance from the exposed silver halide to the coupler and create a dye there. The amount of dye created is small and the reaction only occurs near the exposed silver halide<ref name=\"kodakalaris\" /> and thus doesn't spread throughout the entire layer. The developer diffuses into the film emulsion to react with its layers.<ref name=\"kodakalaris\" /> This process happens simultaneously for all three colors of couplers in the film: cyan (in the red-sensitive layer in the film), magenta(for the green-sensitive layer), and yellow (for the blue-sensitive layer).<ref name=\"shinsaku\" /> Color film has these three layers, to be able to perform subtractive color mixing and be able to replicate colors in images.\n</p>", "<h2> Further processing </h2>\n<p>{{See also|photographic print toning}}\nBlack and white emulsions both negative and positive, may be further processed.

It is not immediately clear that classic Western theories of jurisprudence can be reconciled in any useful way with conceptual analyses of customary law, and thus some scholars (like John Comaroff and Simon Roberts)<ref name=\"cr\">Comaroff &amp; Roberts.</ref> have characterized customary law norms in their own terms. Yet, there clearly remains some disagreement, which is seen in John Hund's critique of Comaroff and Roberts' theory, and preference for the contributions of <a href=\"/wiki/H._L._A._Hart\" title=\"H. L. A. Hart\">H. L. A. Hart</a>. Hund argues that Hart's <a href=\"/wiki/H._L._A._Hart%23The_Concept_of_Law\" title=\"H. L. A.

They defined \"mekgwa le melao ya Setswana\" in terms of Casalis and Ellenberger's definition: <i>melao</i> therefore being rules pronounced by a chief and <i>mekgwa</i> as norms that become customary law through traditional usage.<ref name=\"cr70\">Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 70</ref> Importantly, however, they noted that the Tswana seldom attempt to classify the vast array of existing norms into categories<ref name=\"cr70\" /> and they thus termed this the 'undifferentiated nature of the normative repertoire'. Moreover, they observe the co-existence of overtly incompatible norms that may breed conflict, either due to circumstances in a particular situation or inherently due to their incongruous content.<ref>Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 73</ref> This lack of rule classification and failure to eradicate internal inconsistencies between potentially conflicting norms allows for much flexibility in dispute settlement and is also viewed as a 'strategic resource' for disputants who seek to advance their own success in a case. The latter incongruities (especially inconsistencies of norm content) are typically solved by elevating one of the norms (tacitly) from 'the literal to the symbolic.<ref>Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 75</ref> This allows for the accommodation of both as they now theoretically exist in different realms of reality. This is highly contextual, which further illustrates that norms cannot be viewed in isolation and are open to negotiation. Thus, although there are a small number of so-called non-negotiable norms, the vast majority are viewed and given substance contextually, which is seen as fundamental to the Tswana.\n</p><p>Comaroff and Roberts describe how outcomes of specific cases have the ability to change the normative repertoire, as the repertoire of norms is seen to be both in a state of formation and transformation at all times.<ref>Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 79</ref> These changes are justified on the grounds that they are merely giving recognition to de facto observations of transformation [219]. Furthermore, the legitimacy of a chief is a direct determinant of the legitimacy of his decisions.<ref>Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 81</ref> In the formulation of legislative pronouncements, as opposed to decisions made in dispute resolution,<ref name=\"cr82\">Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 82</ref> the chief first speaks of the proposed norm with his advisors, then council of headmen, then the public assembly debate the proposed law and may accept or reject it. A chief can proclaim the law even if the public assembly rejects it, but this is not often done; and, if the chief proclaims the legislation against the will of the public assembly, the legislation will become melao, however, it is unlikely that it will be executed because its effectiveness depends on the chief's legitimacy and the norm's consistency with the practices (and changes in social relations) and will of the people under that chief.<ref name=\"cr82\" />\n</p><p>Regarding the invocation of norms in disputes, Comaroff and Roberts used the term, \"paradigm of argument\", to refer to the linguistic and conceptual frame used by a disputant, whereby 'a coherent picture of relevant events and actions in terms of one or more implicit or explicit normative referents' is created.<ref name=\"cr85\">Comaroff &amp; Roberts, 85</ref> In their explanation, the complainant (who always speaks first) thus establishes a paradigm the defendant can either accept and therefore argue within that specific paradigm or reject and therefore introduce his or her own paradigm (usually, the facts are not contested here). If the defendant means to change the paradigm, they will refer to norms as such, where actually norms are not ordinarily explicitly referenced in Tswana dispute resolution as the audience would typically already know them and just the way one presents one's case and constructs the facts will establish one's paradigm. The headman or chief adjudicating may also do same: accept the normative basis implied by the parties (or one of them), and thus not refer to norms using explicit language but rather isolate a factual issue in the dispute and then make a decision on it without expressly referring to any norms, or impose a new or different paradigm onto the parties.<ref name=\"cr85\" />\n</p><h3> Law as necessarily rule-governed </h3>\n<p>Hund finds Comaroff and Roberts' flexibility thesis of a 'repertoire of norms' from which litigants and adjudicator choose in the process of negotiating solutions between them uncompelling.<ref name=\"hund\" /> He is therefore concerned with disproving what he calls <a href=\"/wiki/Scepticism_in_law\" title=\"Scepticism in law\">\"rule scepticism\"</a> on their part. He notes that the concept of custom generally denotes convergent behaviour, but not all customs have the force of law. Hund therefore draws from Hart's analysis distinguishing social rules, which have internal and external aspects, from habits, which have only external aspects. Internal aspects are the reflective attitude on the part of adherents toward certain behaviours perceived to be obligatory, according to a common standard. External aspects manifest in regular, observable behaviour, but is not obligatory. In Hart's analysis, then, social rules amount to custom that has legal force.\n</p><p>Hart identifies three further differences between habits and binding social rules.<ref name=\"hund\" /> First, a social rule exists where society frowns on deviation from the habit and attempts to prevent departures by criticising such behaviour. Second, when this criticism is seen socially as a good reason for adhering to the habit, and it is welcomed. And, third, when members of a group behave in a common way not only out of habit or because everyone else is doing it, but because it is seen to be a common standard that should be followed, at least by some members. Hund, however, acknowledges the difficulty of an outsider knowing the dimensions of these criteria that depend on an internal point of view.\n</p><p>For Hund, the first form of rule scepticism concerns the widely held opinion that, because the content of customary law derives from practice, there are actually no objective rules, since it is only behaviour that informs their construction. On this view, it is impossible to distinguish between behaviour that is rule bound and behaviour that is not—i.e., which behaviour is motivated by adherence to law (or at least done in recognition of the law) and is merely a response to other factors. Hund sees this as problematic because it makes quantifying the law almost impossible, since behaviour is obviously inconsistent. Hund argues that this is a misconception based on a failure to acknowledge the importance of the <i>internal element</i>. In his view, by using the criteria described above, there is not this problem in deciphering what constitutes \"law\" in a particular community.<ref name=\"hund\" />\n</p><p>According to Hund, the second form of rule scepticism says that, though a community may have rules, those rules are not arrived at <a href=\"/wiki/Deductive_reasoning\" title=\"Deductive reasoning\">'deductively'</a>, i.e. they are not created through legal/moral reasoning only but are instead driven by the personal/political motives of those who create them. The scope for such influence is created by the loose and undefined nature of customary law, which, Hund argues, grants customary-lawmakers (often through traditional 'judicial processes') a wide discretion in its application. Yet, Hund contends that the fact that rules might sometimes be arrived at in the more ad hoc way, does not mean that this defines the system. If one requires a perfect system, where laws are created only deductively, then one is left with a system with no rules. For Hund, this cannot be so and an explanation for these kinds of law-making processes is found in Hart's conception of \"secondary rules\" (rules in terms of which the main body of norms are recognised). Hund therefore says that for some cultures, for instance in some sections of <a href=\"/wiki/Tswana_people\" title=\"Tswana people\">Tswana</a> society, the secondary rules have developed only to the point where laws are determined with reference to politics and personal preference. This does not mean that they are not \"rules\".

As a result of the closing of seminaries in France during the <a href=\"/wiki/French_Revolution\" title=\"French Revolution\">French Revolution</a>, two diocesan priests opened a secret school in the mountains of central France.\n</p><p>After several years of operation and a change in the French laws, ten priests serving there openly bound themselves into a religious community. They reasoned that the school, by then located in the nearby city of <a href=\"/wiki/Annonay\" title=\"Annonay\">Annonay</a>, would have a better chance of continuing if it were conducted by a <a href=\"/wiki/Religious_congregation\" title=\"Religious congregation\">religious congregation</a> that could accept and train new members to continue its operation after the founding fathers’ retirement.\n<a href=\"/wiki/File:SMCS_arch.jpg\" title=\"SMCS arch.jpg\">thumb|left|The Archway</a>\nThe original members chose <a href=\"/wiki/St._Basil_the_Great\" title=\"St. Basil the Great\">St. Basil the Great</a>, a fourth-century teacher, bishop, and <a href=\"/wiki/Doctor_of_the_Church\" title=\"Doctor of the Church\">doctor of the Church</a>, to be the namesake of the new community.\n</p><p>In the middle of the nineteenth century, the French Basilians came to Canada on an invitation from Bishop de Charbonnel of Toronto. The Bishop saw the need for Catholic schools for the young people of his parishes, especially at the high school level. In his plans to bring Catholic education to more of his people, the Bishop immediately thought of his own education in France. He had been educated at the College of Annonay near <a href=\"/wiki/Lyon\" title=\"Lyon\">Lyon</a>, a school established by the Basilian Fathers.\n<a href=\"/wiki/File:St._Michael%27s_College_School.JPG\" title=\"St. Michael's College School.JPG\">thumb|St. Michael's College School</a>\nIn September 1852, St. Michael's College School opened. It quickly outgrew its original facilities in the basement of the Bishop's Palace on <a href=\"/wiki/Church_Street_%28Toronto%29\" title=\"Church Street (Toronto)\">Church Street</a>. In 1856, it moved to Clover Hill, a property donated to the Basilian Fathers by John Elmsley. Clover Hill was outside the city at that time, in an area now bounded by Bay, St. Joseph, and St. Mary's streets. In 1881, St. Michael's was affiliated with <a href=\"/wiki/St._Michael%27s_College%2C_Toronto\" title=\"St. Michael's College, Toronto\">St. Michael's College</a> at the <a href=\"/wiki/University_of_Toronto\" title=\"University of Toronto\">University of Toronto</a> for post secondary education.\n</p><p>The school specifically targeted Irish immigrants. The high school section expanded much more rapidly than the college section. In 1902, a new wing was added to the original building and the high school remained here until 1950.\n</p><p>In the years after <a href=\"/wiki/World_War_II\" title=\"World War II\">World War II</a>, it became apparent that the Bay Street buildings were not equal to the challenge of serving a growing student body. At this point the high school section was separated from the University College. In September 1950, St. Michael's College School opened its doors at <a href=\"/wiki/Bathurst_Street_%28Toronto%29\" title=\"Bathurst Street (Toronto)\">Bathurst Street</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/St._Clair_Avenue\" title=\"St. Clair Avenue\">St. Clair Avenue</a>, where it is situated today.\n<a href=\"/wiki/File:St._Michael%27s_College_School_-_24071340502.jpg\" title=\"St. Michael's College School - 24071340502.jpg\">thumb|St. Michael's College School|left</a>\nIn 1967, St. Michael's College School entered into partnership with the <a href=\"/wiki/Toronto_Catholic_District_School_Board\" title=\"Toronto Catholic District School Board\">Metropolitan Separate School Board</a> (known today as the Toronto Catholic District School Board) educating the Board's students in Grades 9 and 10. This decision made St. Michael's College School both a public and private school, which lasted for approximately 20 years. In September 1985, the Basilian Fathers decided to refuse provincial aid beyond and return St. Michael's to its roots as an independent, Catholic high school.\n<a href=\"/wiki/File:Tower-front_lawn.jpg\" title=\"Tower-front lawn.jpg\">thumb|SMCS Tower</a>\nIn 1995, a major capital expansion program upgraded the school to include an east wing complete with science classrooms, a library (Odette Library), music and visual arts facilities, a design and technology facility, a 250-seat lecture hall, and an expanded gymnasium. In September 1998, St. Michael's College School expanded its academic program to include a Grade 7 and 8 program. The Preparatory school was previously active during the early 1900s.\n</p><p>The school's athletic stadium was retrofitted in September 2004 to include a state-of-the-art athletic field complete with artificial turf, an electronic scoreboard, stadium lighting, and an air supported dome that covers a third of the field for use during the winter months. The St. Michael's College School Centre for the Arts was the fourth and final phase of this revitalization project.<ref name=\"ReferenceA\">{{cite web |url=http://www.stmichaelscollegeschool.com/our-campus-p138382 |title=SMCS |website=www.stmichaelscollegeschool.com |access-date=12 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111001080123/http://www.stmichaelscollegeschool.com/our-campus-p138382 |archive-date=1 October 2011 |url-status=dead}}</ref> The St. Michael's College School Centre for the Arts opened in April 2010, and hosts annual school stage productions of musicals and dramas in addition to concerts and other events.\n</p>", "<h2> Campus </h2>\n<p><a href=\"/wiki/File:St._Michael%27s_College_School_-_23811577759.jpg\" title=\"St. Michael's College School - 23811577759.jpg\">thumb|left|St. Michael's College School</a>\nThe school's campus is located at <a href=\"/wiki/Bathurst_Street%2C_Toronto\" title=\"Bathurst Street, Toronto\">Bathurst Street</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/St._Clair_Avenue\" title=\"St. Clair Avenue\">St. Clair Avenue</a> at the edge of Toronto's <a href=\"/wiki/Forest_Hill%2C_Toronto\" title=\"Forest Hill, Toronto\">Forest Hill</a> neighbourhood. The main school building was designed by Canadian architect <a href=\"/wiki/Ernest_Cormier\" title=\"Ernest Cormier\">Ernest Cormier</a> and completed in 1950.

The additions contain classrooms tailored to the science, art and music programmes, a substantial lecture hall, several computer laboratories, and a large library. An outdoor courtyard adjacent to the cafeteria overlooked by classrooms is popular for major school events. The school's residence wing, originally built to accommodate boarding students, functioned as a Basilian house until 2008 when it was removed to make room for the school's \"state-of-the-art\" Centre for the Arts.

She arrived in <a href=\"/wiki/Southampton\" title=\"Southampton\">Southampton</a> on 22 November. <i>Washington</i> embarked a contingent of Army personnel totaling 185&nbsp;officers and 1,479&nbsp;enlisted men and then re-crossed the Atlantic to New York, where she was decommissioned on 27 June 1947.{{sfn|DANFS}}\n</p><p>She was assigned to the <a href=\"/wiki/Atlantic_Reserve_Fleet\" title=\"Atlantic Reserve Fleet\">Atlantic Reserve Fleet</a>, based in New York, where she remained through the 1950s. Beginning already in 1946, the Ships Characteristics Board authorized the removal a number of the 40&nbsp;mm guns from the <i>North Carolina</i> and <i>South Dakota</i> class battleships that had been decommissioned. These guns were then installed on the {{sclass|Iowa|battleship|1}}s when they were reactivated for the <a href=\"/wiki/Korean_War\" title=\"Korean War\">Korean War</a>. <i>Washington</i> and the other battleships had their 20&nbsp;mm batteries removed entirely by October 1951. The Navy considered modernizing <i>Washington</i> and <i>North Carolina</i> in May 1954, which would have provided an anti-aircraft battery of twelve {{cvt|3|in|0}} guns in twin turrets. The ships' slow speed prevented them from effectively serving with the carrier task forces and the Navy determined that a speed of {{convert|31|kn}} would be necessary. To achieve this, the power plant would have to provide {{cvt|240000|shp}} at the current displacement; even removing the aft turret and using that magazine space for additional boilers would not have produced the necessary power. By removing all of the belt armor, the ship would have only required {{cvt|216000|shp}} to reach the desired speed, but the aft hull would have had to have been significantly rebuilt to accommodate the larger screws that would have been required. The Navy considered the possibility of removing the ships' current propulsion system altogether and replacing it with the same type as used in the <i>Iowa</i>s, which were capable of {{cvt|35|kn}}, but there was not enough room to fit the larger system. To reach the same speed, <i>Washington</i> would have needed to have all side armor and all three turrets removed in addition to a power plant capable of {{cvt|470000|shp}}.{{sfn|DANFS}}{{sfn|Friedman 1985|pp=390, 392, 397–398}}\n</p><p>The cost of the project, estimated at around $40&nbsp;million per ship, was deemed to be prohibitively expensive and so the project was abandoned.{{sfn|Friedman 1985|p=397}} The ship remained in the inventory until 1 June 1960, when the ship was stricken from the <a href=\"/wiki/Naval_Vessel_Register\" title=\"Naval Vessel Register\">Naval Vessel Register</a>.

The pins are 1.45&nbsp;mm in diameter and equally spaced (at 90°, 72°, 60° or 45° angles) in a 7.0&nbsp;mm diameter circle. The skirt is keyed to ensure that the plug is inserted with the correct orientation, and to prevent damage to the pins. The basic design also ensures that the shielding is connected between socket and plug prior to any signal path connection being made.\n</p><p>There are seven common patterns, with any number of pins from three to eight. Three different five-pin connectors exist, known as 180°, 240°, and domino/360°/270° after the angle of the arc swept between the first and last pin. There are also two variations of the six-pin,{{citation needed|date=April 2019}} seven-pin (one where the outer pins form 300° or 360° and one where they form 270°), and eight-pin (one where the outer pins form 270° and one where they form 262°) connectors.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hmarkstrom.se/kablar.htm|title=Kablar|last=Markström|first=Håkan|date=2017-11-18|access-date=2019-04-02|language=sv}}</ref>\n</p><p>There is some limited compatibility; for example, a three-pin connector will fit any 180° five-pin socket, engaging three of the pins and leaving the other two unconnected; and a three-pin or 180° five-pin connector will also fit a 270° seven-pin or either eight-pin socket.\n</p><p>In addition to these connectors, there are also connectors with 10, 12, and 14 pins. Some high-range equipment used seven-pin connectors where the outer two carried digital system data:<ref>{{ cite web | url = http://soundsheavenly.co.uk/faq.htm | title = Sounds Heavenly - Help and Advice | access-date = 2009-03-19 }}</ref> if the connected equipment was incompatible, the outer two pins could be unscrewed from plugs so that they fitted into standard five-pin 180° sockets without data connections.\n</p><p>As the keying is consistent across all connectors, it does not completely prevent incompatible connectors from mating, which can lead to damage; this is changed in <a href=\"/wiki/Mini-DIN\" title=\"Mini-DIN\">Mini-DIN</a>, which keys different connectors.\n</p><p>Some \"domino\" five-pin connectors had a keyway on opposing sides of the socket, allowing it to be reversed. If used as a headphone connector, the plug sometimes had a cut-out in the body that, depending on which way the plug was inserted, would either allow (e.g.) external speakers to be switched off or not as required: inserting the plug one way would activate a switch on the periphery of the socket (thus switching off the speakers), whereas inserting the plug in the opposite orientation would not activate the switch (due to the cut-out in the plug body)&mdash;the left and right channels would not be transposed, as the plug was wired such that each headphone speaker was connected \"top left&ndash;bottom right\" and \"top right&ndash;bottom left\".<ref>I{{who|date=September 2021}} have a Philips tape recorder which has a \"domino\" headphone socket; the headphone plug has a cut-out in the body thus allowing the external speakers to remain active or not as required.</ref> Note that when rotating a DIN headphone connector 180 degress the polarity will be reversed. This generally doesn't affect the audio but if an adapter with a DIN headphone male connector and most other types of female headphone connector is used, the negative connection for both channels will be joined resulting in the audio being stereo with the DIN connector inserted one way and mono when inserted the other way. To avoid this and still be able to use a pair of headphones both with equipment that has a DIN headphone connector and also use it with other equipment it is suggested to permanently mount a DIN connector on the headphones and make an adapter to use other devices with headphones that has a DIN connector. If used as a serial data connection, the transmit and receive lines could be crossed (although the pinout adopted by Acorn did not allow for this).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12966 |title=Why are domino plugs reversible |publisher=stardot.org.uk |access-date=2017-05-10}}</ref>\n</p><p>Screw-locking versions of this connector have also been used in instrumentation, process control, and professional audio.<ref>IEC 60268-11</ref> In North America, this variant is often called a \"small Tuchel\" connector after one of the major manufacturers, now a division of <a href=\"/wiki/Amphenol\" title=\"Amphenol\">Amphenol</a>. Additional configurations up to 24 pins are also offered in the same shell size.

The bayonet locking version is sometimes referred to by the trade name Preh. Belling Lee offered a version with a sprung-loaded collar which latched on insertion but required the collar to be pulled back to release the connector, similar to the <a href=\"/wiki/LEMO\" title=\"LEMO\">LEMO</a> B series connector.

For example, a <a href=\"/wiki/Stereophonic_sound\" title=\"Stereophonic sound\">stereo</a> tape recorder could connect to a stereo amplifier using the five pins for the four signal connections plus ground. The connectors on the cord are connected pin for pin, (pin 1 to pin 1, etc.). Pins on male connectors are numbered (from right to left, viewed from outside of the connector, with the five pins upwards, and facing them): 1–4–2–5–3. Holes on female connectors are also numbered 1-4-2-5-3, but from left to right (facing the holes). The three pins that make contact with a 3 pin DIN connector will have the same pin numbering both in the three-pin and the five-pin connector. A four-conductor cord wired in this way is sometimes called a <i>DIN cord</i>, a <i>DIN lead</i> or a <i>DIN cable</i>. For <a href=\"/wiki/Monaural\" title=\"Monaural\">mono</a> interconnections, the 3/180° plugs are sufficient. When a mono plug is inserted into a stereo socket, it mates with the left channel. For playback only interconnections, the 3/180° plugs are sufficient, with pin 1 and 3 used for the stereo channels and pin 2 as signal ground. Five-pin DIN inputs for record players and auxiliary signal sources commonly join pin 1 and 5 in order to be compatible both with the 3/180° and 5/180° pinouts. This generally works fine. However the join of pin 1 and 5 on adapters between DIN and RCA connectors can cause problems if used with a five-pin DIN connector tape connector on an amplifier or receiver, as it will join the left record with right playback signal. The other way around is usually not a problem as sending the right playback out of a tape recorder back in to the left record input usually imposes no problem in playback mode.\n</p><p>The signal levels are generally in the low range of line levels for playback/reproduction signals. The levels for recording can be considerably lower, more like microphone levels in some cases.\n</p><p>Some manufacturers, like Philips, Uher and others, did use the connector slightly differently for tape recorders. Pin 2 (signal ground) was the same as others, and in playback mode pin 3 and 5 were used for left and right line level output as others. However in record mode all pins were active inputs, with pin 1 and 4 for low-level signals like microphone levels, while pin 3 and 5 were used for line-level signals. On all these recorders the output signals were only active in play mode, not in stop, record, rewind, fast forward or any other mode. The main benefits with this usage is that tape copying can be done with the regular pin-to-pin connected cables commonly used to connect tape recorders to amplifiers/receivers. An additional benefit is that several tape recorders can be connected in parallel, and can also be connected to an amplifier/receiver. Copying is done simply by pressing play on the playback recorder, rec on any recorders used for recording, and the amplifier/receiver is either switched off or set to the tape position. Recording of radio broadcasts or records is equally simple, just press record on any recorder and do not set any other recorder to playback mode. This eliminates the need for any switch boxes otherwise commonly used to connect more than one tape recorder to a single tape recorder connector on an amplifier/receiver. The drawbacks were that connecting any mono recorder with pin 1 joined to 4 and pin 5 joined to 3 (a common practice to make mono recorders record both channels in parallel and reproduce in both channels) would make all tape sounds mono. Also any tape recorder with three heads, used for monitoring while recording, needs an extra lead between the recorder and the amplifier to be able to monitor the recording through the amplifier and speakers. On Philips amplifiers/receivers and three head recorders that extra socket is labeled Monitor while the regular socket is labeled Tape. Another drawback is the possible confusion when interconnecting with other equipment, where a person sometimes would use a straight pin-to-pin cable and sometimes use a special \"copying\" cable with pin 1 swapped with pin 3 and pin 4 swapped with pin 5. Sometimes a person would also need to lower the signal to make a line output fit a microphone level input. In other cases it was also used for sending power to a device. For example some tuners, usually only pins 1, 4 and 2 are required for audio signal, other ( 3 and 5 were used to send power supply to the tuner U usually DC, as AC may cause hum, tuners usually having low power requirements). The input, is still compatible with other standard input connectors, but misusing the use of pins 3 and 5 may cause damages. Other manufacturers were using more than 5 pins, for example the cassette decks, two other pins being for power supply). Usually these were proprietary connections, making them compatible only with decks of the same manufacturers. Some other manufacturers, were using more than 5 pins connections (7 or even 9 pins) for devices with remote control, beside the audio signals there was also the remote control link ( usually the main unit with remote receiver being the amplifier/receiver). Other uses, some amplifiers and receivers with ceramic phono input, were using 1,4,2 pins for conventional line audio signal input and pins 3 and 5 for powering an optional external magnetic phono preamplifier. In this case, these manufacturers were also supplying the preamplifier. The input without preamplifier can be used as standard input on pins 1, 2 and 4, but care should be taken to avoid shorting pins 3 and 5 in this case, which are power supply, which may cause damages to equipment. In other cases, pins 1 2 and 4 are used for magnetic cartridge, and 3, 5 ( with ground on 2 ) for ceramic. This depends on manufacturer. Other uses for example in case of cassette decks were: Input and output, power supply, remote control and record sync. But this will be usually usable solely with the same decks of the manufacturer. Usually will be compatible with the conventional deck, but care must be taken not to short the other pins.\n</p><p>This interface was rare outside products for the European market, and has progressively disappeared on new equipment, both in Europe and worldwide, since the 1980s, in favour of <a href=\"/wiki/RCA_connectors\" title=\"RCA connectors\">RCA connectors</a>.

For example, a <a href=\"/wiki/Stereophonic_sound\" title=\"Stereophonic sound\">stereo</a> tape recorder could connect to a stereo amplifier using the five pins for the four signal connections plus ground. The connectors on the cord are connected pin for pin, (pin 1 to pin 1, etc.). Pins on male connectors are numbered (from right to left, viewed from outside of the connector, with the five pins upwards, and facing them): 1–4–2–5–3. Holes on female connectors are also numbered 1-4-2-5-3, but from left to right (facing the holes). The three pins that make contact with a 3 pin DIN connector will have the same pin numbering both in the three-pin and the five-pin connector. A four-conductor cord wired in this way is sometimes called a <i>DIN cord</i>, a <i>DIN lead</i> or a <i>DIN cable</i>. For <a href=\"/wiki/Monaural\" title=\"Monaural\">mono</a> interconnections, the 3/180° plugs are sufficient. When a mono plug is inserted into a stereo socket, it mates with the left channel. For playback only interconnections, the 3/180° plugs are sufficient, with pin 1 and 3 used for the stereo channels and pin 2 as signal ground. Five-pin DIN inputs for record players and auxiliary signal sources commonly join pin 1 and 5 in order to be compatible both with the 3/180° and 5/180° pinouts. This generally works fine. However the join of pin 1 and 5 on adapters between DIN and RCA connectors can cause problems if used with a five-pin DIN connector tape connector on an amplifier or receiver, as it will join the left record with right playback signal. The other way around is usually not a problem as sending the right playback out of a tape recorder back in to the left record input usually imposes no problem in playback mode.\n</p><p>The signal levels are generally in the low range of line levels for playback/reproduction signals. The levels for recording can be considerably lower, more like microphone levels in some cases.\n</p><p>Some manufacturers, like Philips, Uher and others, did use the connector slightly differently for tape recorders. Pin 2 (signal ground) was the same as others, and in playback mode pin 3 and 5 were used for left and right line level output as others. However in record mode all pins were active inputs, with pin 1 and 4 for low-level signals like microphone levels, while pin 3 and 5 were used for line-level signals. On all these recorders the output signals were only active in play mode, not in stop, record, rewind, fast forward or any other mode. The main benefits with this usage is that tape copying can be done with the regular pin-to-pin connected cables commonly used to connect tape recorders to amplifiers/receivers. An additional benefit is that several tape recorders can be connected in parallel, and can also be connected to an amplifier/receiver. Copying is done simply by pressing play on the playback recorder, rec on any recorders used for recording, and the amplifier/receiver is either switched off or set to the tape position. Recording of radio broadcasts or records is equally simple, just press record on any recorder and do not set any other recorder to playback mode. This eliminates the need for any switch boxes otherwise commonly used to connect more than one tape recorder to a single tape recorder connector on an amplifier/receiver. The drawbacks were that connecting any mono recorder with pin 1 joined to 4 and pin 5 joined to 3 (a common practice to make mono recorders record both channels in parallel and reproduce in both channels) would make all tape sounds mono. Also any tape recorder with three heads, used for monitoring while recording, needs an extra lead between the recorder and the amplifier to be able to monitor the recording through the amplifier and speakers. On Philips amplifiers/receivers and three head recorders that extra socket is labeled Monitor while the regular socket is labeled Tape.

It commonly exists as a panel-mounting female version, and line-mounted male and female versions, although there were rare panel mounted male connectors, for example fitted on the external speaker boxes on certain early 1980s Luxor TV sets. The male version has a central flat pin, and circular pin mounted off-centre. The circular pin is connected to the positive line (red) while the spade is connected to the negative line (black).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.electronics2000.co.uk/pin-out/dincon.php|title=DIN Connectors|last=Carter|first=Simon|year=2010|work=Electronics 2000|access-date=27 March 2010}}</ref> The panel-mounting female version is available with or without an auxiliary contact that disconnects the internal speaker of the device if an external speaker connector is inserted. Most common is a three-hole female connector with one circular hole on either side of the spade hole, one of them with an aux contact and one without, which provides the option to leave the internal speaker connected by inserting the plug twisted by 180°.\n</p><p>Many European car radio/stereo brands used this connector, commonly spaced so close apart that you need smaller male cable connectors. This was commonly used in conjunction with a connector block with two larger and four smaller flat blade connectors with a standardized pinout for power in (main power, memory for radios with electronic settings memory, dashboard light power) and out (for an automatic electric antenna). This setup was commonly combined with an 8-pin DIN connector where pin 1-5 were used for line output for connecting power amplifier (using the same pinout as for home audio equipment, except \"tape record\" would be front audio out and \"tape play\" would be rear audio out). The middle pin was used for remote start of an amplifier. If standard 5-pin home audio cables were used the automatic antenna connector could also be used for remote starting an amplifier. Eventually this connector setup was replaced with the later ISO car stereo connector standard.\n</p><p>It is now mainly found on older equipment, such as 16&nbsp;mm movie projectors.{{citation needed|date=June 2021}}.

The ability to successfully distinguish the challenge ciphertext essentially amounts to the ability to decide composite residuosity. The so-called <a href=\"/wiki/Decisional_composite_residuosity_assumption\" title=\"Decisional composite residuosity assumption\">decisional composite residuosity assumption</a> (DCRA) is believed to be intractable.\n</p><p>Because of the aforementioned homomorphic properties however, the system is <a href=\"/wiki/Malleability_%28cryptography%29\" title=\"Malleability (cryptography)\">malleable</a>, and therefore does not enjoy the highest level of semantic security, protection against adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks (<a href=\"/wiki/IND-CCA2%23Indistinguishability_under_chosen_ciphertext_attack.2Fadaptive_chosen_ciphertext_attack_.28IND-CCA1.2C_IND-CCA2.29\" title=\"IND-CCA2#Indistinguishability under chosen ciphertext attack.2Fadaptive chosen ciphertext attack .28IND-CCA1.2C IND-CCA2.29\">IND-CCA2</a>). \nUsually in cryptography the notion of malleability is not seen as an \"advantage,\" but under certain applications such as secure electronic voting and <a href=\"/wiki/Threshold_cryptosystem\" title=\"Threshold cryptosystem\">threshold cryptosystems</a>, this property may indeed be necessary.\n</p><p>Paillier and Pointcheval however went on to propose an improved cryptosystem that incorporates the combined hashing of message <i>m</i> with random <i>r</i>. Similar in intent to the <a href=\"/wiki/Cramer%E2%80%93Shoup_cryptosystem\" title=\"Cramer–Shoup cryptosystem\">Cramer–Shoup cryptosystem</a>, the hashing prevents an attacker, given only <i>c,</i> from being able to change <i>m</i> in a meaningful way. Through this adaptation the improved scheme can be shown to be <a href=\"/wiki/IND-CCA2%23Indistinguishability_under_chosen_ciphertext_attack.2Fadaptive_chosen_ciphertext_attack_.28IND-CCA1.2C_IND-CCA2.29\" title=\"IND-CCA2#Indistinguishability under chosen ciphertext attack.2Fadaptive chosen ciphertext attack .28IND-CCA1.2C IND-CCA2.29\">IND-CCA2</a> secure in the <a href=\"/wiki/Random_oracle_model\" title=\"Random oracle model\">random oracle model</a>.\n</p><h3>Applications</h3>\n<h4>Electronic voting</h4>\n<p>Semantic security is not the only consideration. There are situations under which malleability may be desirable. Secure <a href=\"/wiki/Electronic_voting\" title=\"Electronic voting\">electronic voting</a> systems can utilize the above homomorphic properties. Consider a simple binary (\"for\" or \"against\") vote. Let <i>m</i> voters cast a vote of either <i>1</i> (for) or <i>0</i> (against). Each voter encrypts their choice before casting their vote. The election official takes the product of the <i>m</i> encrypted votes and then decrypts the result and obtains the value <i>n</i>, which is the sum of all the votes. The election official then knows that <i>n</i> people voted <i>for</i> and <i>m-n</i> people voted <i>against</i>. The role of the random <i>r</i> ensures that two equivalent votes will encrypt to the same value only with negligible likelihood, hence ensuring voter privacy.\n</p><h4>Electronic cash</h4>\n<p>Another feature named in paper is the notion of self-<a href=\"/wiki/Blinding_%28cryptography%29\" title=\"Blinding (cryptography)\">blinding</a>. This is the ability to change one ciphertext into another without changing the content of its decryption. This has application to the development of <a href=\"/wiki/Ecash\" title=\"Ecash\">ecash</a>, an effort originally spearheaded by <a href=\"/wiki/David_Chaum\" title=\"David Chaum\">David Chaum</a>. Imagine paying for an item online without the vendor needing to know your credit card number, and hence your identity. The goal in both electronic cash and electronic voting, is to ensure the e-coin (likewise e-vote) is valid, while at the same time not disclosing the identity of the person with whom it is currently associated.\n</p><h4>Electronic auction</h4>\n<p>The Paillier cryptosystem plays a crucial role in enhancing the security of <a href=\"/wiki/Electronic_auction\" title=\"Electronic auction\">electronic auctions</a>. It prevents fraudulent activities such as dishonest auctioneers and collusion between bidders and auctioneers who manipulate bids.

After an experimental period, it became WCON-FM on 98.5&nbsp;MHz.<ref><a href=\"https://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-BC-YB/1949/1949-BC-YB.pdf\">Broadcasting Yearbook 1949 page 226</a></ref> The <a href=\"/wiki/Call_sign\" title=\"Call sign\">call sign</a> contained the letters \"CON\" for \"Constitution\". The competing <i><a href=\"/wiki/Atlanta_Journal\" title=\"Atlanta Journal\">Atlanta Journal</a></i> had already put Atlanta's first AM station on the air in 1922, <a href=\"/wiki/WSB_%28AM%29\" title=\"WSB (AM)\">WSB</a>. In 1948, the Journal added a companion FM station, WSB-FM, broadcasting on 104.5&nbsp;MHz.<ref><a href=\"https://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-BC-YB/1949/1949-BC-YB.pdf\">Broadcasting Yearbook 1949 page 505</a></ref>\n</p><p>When the two newspapers merged under <a href=\"/wiki/Cox_Enterprises\" title=\"Cox Enterprises\">Cox Enterprises</a> ownership in 1952, WCON-FM and WSB-FM went <a href=\"/wiki/Dark_%28broadcasting%29\" title=\"Dark (broadcasting)\">silent</a>. WSB-FM returned to the air in 1955 on WCON-FM's dial position, 98.5 FM. While it has the call letters of WSB-FM, the station traces its founding to when WCON-FM first <a href=\"/wiki/Sign-on\" title=\"Sign-on\">signed on</a>.\n</p><p>During its early years, when few people had FM radio receivers, WSB-FM mostly <a href=\"/wiki/Simulcast\" title=\"Simulcast\">simulcast</a> the programming on WSB (AM). That included dramas, comedies, news and sports from the <a href=\"/wiki/NBC_Red_Network\" title=\"NBC Red Network\">NBC Red Network</a>, as well as local shows. As network programming moved from radio to television in the 1950s, WSB-AM-FM carried a <a href=\"/wiki/Full_service_radio\" title=\"Full service radio\">full service</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Middle_of_the_road_%28music%29\" title=\"Middle of the road (music)\">middle of the road</a> format of popular music, news, sports and information.\n</p><h3>Beautiful music</h3>\n<p>In the 1960s, the <a href=\"/wiki/Federal_Communications_Commission\" title=\"Federal Communications Commission\">Federal Communications Commission</a> encouraged large market radio stations to provide separate programming on their FM outlets. WSB-FM would begin airing <a href=\"/wiki/Beautiful_music\" title=\"Beautiful music\">beautiful music</a>, 15-minute sweeps of orchestral music, mostly <a href=\"/wiki/Cover_version\" title=\"Cover version\">cover versions</a> of pop songs, as well as <a href=\"/wiki/Cinema_of_the_United_States\" title=\"Cinema of the United States\">Hollywood</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Broadway_theatre\" title=\"Broadway theatre\">Broadway show tunes</a>.<ref><a href=\"https://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-BC-YB/1976/C%20%20Broadcasting%20Yearbook%201976.pdf\">Broadcasting Yearbook 1976 page C-47</a></ref> It was mostly <a href=\"/wiki/Broadcast_automation\" title=\"Broadcast automation\">automated</a>.\n</p><p>A planned merger of <a href=\"/wiki/General_Electric\" title=\"General Electric\">General Electric</a> and Cox in the late 1970s would have caused WSB-FM to be spun off. Noted African-American broadcaster Ragan Henry had plans to acquire WSB-FM and use the call letters WEZA on the station, so it would no longer share its call sign with WSB-AM-TV, but the GE deal did not materialize.\n</p><h3>Switch to AC</h3>\n<p>In the 1970s, WSB-FM added some soft vocals to its beautiful music <a href=\"/wiki/Playlist\" title=\"Playlist\">playlist</a>. The ratio of vocals to instrumentals continued to increase until March 15, 1982, when the station formally switched to <a href=\"/wiki/Soft_adult_contemporary\" title=\"Soft adult contemporary\">soft adult contemporary</a> music and eliminated the instrumentals.\n</p><p>In the 1980s, many FM stations were rounding off their dial positions on the air; WSB-FM stopped identifying itself as 98.5 and rounded it off to \"99FM\". In 1985, WSB-FM sued its soft AC competitor <a href=\"/wiki/WWWQ\" title=\"WWWQ\">WLTA-FM</a>, owned by <a href=\"/wiki/Susquehanna_Broadcasting\" title=\"Susquehanna Broadcasting\">Susquehanna Broadcasting</a>, which had begun calling itself \"Warm 99\". Cox Broadcasting claimed trademark infringement, saying listeners would be confused with two Atlanta stations with similar formats using \"99\" as their dial position. Arbitron was having trouble crediting each station in the ratings because of the common use of \"99\".\n</p><p>Cox v. Susquehanna Broadcasting became a landmark case in <a href=\"/wiki/United_States_district_court\" title=\"United States district court\">United States district court</a>.<ref><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/620/143/1456444/\">http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/620/143/1456444/</a> Cox Communications v. Susquehanna Broadcasting Co.</ref> The judge was handed a digital radio and asked to tune to 100.0&nbsp;MHz, but there was no signal. To find the nearest station, he pressed the \"Scan\" button, and it stopped on 101.5&nbsp;MHz (<a href=\"/wiki/WKHX-FM\" title=\"WKHX-FM\">WKHX-FM</a>). Next, he entered 99.0&nbsp;MHz, which, again, contained no signal. Scanning from there, the radio hit 99.7, WLTA's frequency. In his precedent-setting decision, the judge stated that on a radio dial \"a radio station's frequency is its address\" and one cannot trademark an address. On June 25, he ruled in favor of Warm 99. A short time later, WSB-FM began calling itself \"B98.5FM\".\n</p><h3>Competing with 94.9</h3>\n<p>Another former beautiful music station, WPCH, made the transition to soft AC shortly after WSB-FM in the early 1980s. The two stations were locked in a battle for \"at-work listeners\" for two decades, with formats designed for workplace listening. WPCH, at various times, called itself \"95 WPCH\", \"Peach 94.9\", and \"94.9 Lite FM\", and even switched its call letters to WLTM. On December 18, 2006, 94.9 flipped to <a href=\"/wiki/Country_music\" title=\"Country music\">country music</a> as <a href=\"/wiki/WUBL\" title=\"WUBL\">WUBL</a>.\n</p><p>For a year, the soft AC format and WLTM call letters were moved to the weaker frequency of 96.7. When that station (now <a href=\"/wiki/WBZW\" title=\"WBZW\">WBZW</a>) switched to classic country, WSB-FM became the only <a href=\"/wiki/Adult_contemporary_music\" title=\"Adult contemporary music\">adult contemporary music</a> station in Atlanta. Over time, WSB-FM would move to a more upbeat AC direction.\n</p><h3>DJs and programming changes</h3>\n<p>On December 29, 2006, WSB-FM became the Atlanta <a href=\"/wiki/Network_affiliate\" title=\"Network affiliate\">affiliate</a> for the <a href=\"/wiki/Radio_syndication\" title=\"Radio syndication\">nationally syndicated</a> <a href=\"/wiki/Delilah_Rene\" title=\"Delilah Rene\">Delilah</a> show (which was previously broadcast on 94.9 <a href=\"/wiki/WUBL\" title=\"WUBL\">Lite FM</a>/Peach 94.9). Delilah was dropped from WSB-FM in December 2011.\n</p><p>On July 1, 2008, <a href=\"/wiki/Steve_McCoy\" title=\"Steve McCoy\">Steve McCoy</a> and Vikki Locke joined WSB-FM as the morning hosts after 17&nbsp;years at <a href=\"/wiki/Adult_top_40\" title=\"Adult top 40\">adult top 40</a> station <a href=\"/wiki/WSTR_%28FM%29\" title=\"WSTR (FM)\">WSTR</a> \"Star 94\". Steve McCoy was let go on February 25, 2010. In March 2011, Kelly Stevens from the old \"Kelly and Alpha\" show rejoined the station and was paired with Vikki. In August 2012, in the early morning hours one day, Stevens' <a href=\"/wiki/Sport_utility_vehicle\" title=\"Sport utility vehicle\">SUV</a> was <a href=\"/wiki/Total_loss\" title=\"Total loss\">totaled</a> by a vehicle driving the wrong way while he was driving to work on the <a href=\"/wiki/Georgia_400\" title=\"Georgia 400\">Georgia 400</a> Freeway. The other driver was killed. Stevens' left leg was broken and left elbow shattered, but he was in good spirits later in the morning at <a href=\"/wiki/Grady_Hospital\" title=\"Grady Hospital\">Grady Hospital</a>, when he called in to the show.\n</p><p>In the past, WSB-FM produced an annual \"Family Fun Fest\" event, where companies that provide products for kids and families would showcase the products and services they offered. The show featured live events and appearances from local sports stars. The station conducted live broadcasts from the location both days of the event. The festival ended in 2009.\n</p><p>During the spring of 2011, WSB-FM shook up its on-air staff and format due to declining ratings. All music before 1980 was dropped, more songs from the 2000s were added, and WSB-FM abandoned the longtime \"Atlanta's Best Variety of Soft Rock\" tagline. Its slogan became \"Your Favorites From the 80s, 90s, and Now\", later shortened to \"80s, 90s &amp; Now\".\n</p><p>From 2001 to 2003 and again from 2009 to 2011, each weekend WSB-FM would play only music from the 1980s. On September 16, 2011, the station changed from \"All-80's Weekends\" to \"80's and 90's Weekends\". As of January 2012, 1980s and 1990s weekends no longer air. The station had previously aired all 1970s weekends during the 1990s.\n</p><p>On April 27, 2012, longtime WSB-FM afternoon DJ Kelly McCoy retired after 27 years in the same air shift, after joining the station in January 1985. At 4:00 that afternoon, WSB-FM aired a special tribute during his last show. It was the first time in recent memory that the station broke format during afternoon <a href=\"/wiki/Drive_time\" title=\"Drive time\">drive time</a>. McCoy was replaced by DJ Mike Shannon. On January 4, 2013, Cox Radio management fired Shannon after just nine months on air.<ref><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"http://atlradioinsider.blogspot.com/2013/01/ari-tip-line-mike-shannon-of-b985-out.html\">http://atlradioinsider.blogspot.com/2013/01/ari-tip-line-mike-shannon-of-b985-out.html</a> {{Dead link|date=February 2022}}</ref>\n</p>", "<h3>Early years</h3>\n<p>In the early 1940s, the <i><a href=\"/wiki/Atlanta_Constitution\" title=\"Atlanta Constitution\">Atlanta Constitution</a></i> started an FM radio station.

Space Patrol is the UGO's military wing, and the series follows the actions of this interplanetary force, focusing on the missions of a tiny unit led by the heroic, bearded Captain Larry Dart. The humanoids in his crew consist of the elfin Slim from <a href=\"/wiki/Venus\" title=\"Venus\">Venus</a>, and the stocky, ravenously sausage-mad Husky from the Red Planet, <a href=\"/wiki/Mars\" title=\"Mars\">Mars</a>.<ref name=\"Woolery\">{{cite book |last1=Woolery |first1=George W. |title=Children's Television: The First Thirty-Five Years, 1946-1981, Part II: Live, Film, and Tape Series |date=1985 |publisher=The Scarecrow Press |isbn=0-8108-1651-2 |page=398}}</ref> The imperfect Slavic accent variants and six-pointed star chest emblems of these two may have been a sly nod to the Jewish-Russian heritage of the English series creator/writer.

Haggarty's garrulous pet Martian \"parrot\" (a Gabblerdictum bird), taught to talk in \"The Slaves of Neptune\" episode, accompanies the crew on rare occasions. Keeping them all on a tight rein are Colonel Raeburn and his super-efficient Venusian secretary, Marla, both also based on Earth.\n</p><p>The show reflected sex roles characteristic of the culture and era which produced it, but blonde and brainy Marla would often explicitly point out that \"There are no dumb blondes on Venus.\" Indeed, the series was created and written by the prolific polymath artist <a href=\"/wiki/Roberta_Leigh\" title=\"Roberta Leigh\">Roberta Leigh</a>, the first woman producer in Britain to have her own film company.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/11310319/Roberta-Leigh-obituary.html | title=Roberta Leigh - obituary | date=23 December 2014 | newspaper=The Telegraph | location=UK | accessdate=12 December 2019 }}</ref>\n</p><p>The series was sold overseas and broadcast in the US, Canada and Australia, and in spite of the very low budget – which meant that sometimes the shadow of a puppet could be seen behind a \"TV Screen\" before the communication device was supposedly turned on —the show rated strongly with young audiences in many regions (including New York City)<ref><a href=\"http://www.allmovie.com/work/space-patrol-tv-series-307171\">allmovie.com – <i>Space Patrol</i></a></ref> and garnered a huge following. <i><a href=\"/wiki/Babylon_5\" title=\"Babylon 5\">Babylon 5</a></i> creator <a href=\"/wiki/J._Michael_Straczynski\" title=\"J. Michael Straczynski\">J. Michael Straczynski</a> said that it was his favourite TV show as a child.\n</p>", "<h2>The science</h2>\n<p>Whereas Gerry Anderson had a rocket ship in <i><a href=\"/wiki/Fireball_XL5\" title=\"Fireball XL5\">Fireball XL5</a></i> that could travel light years to planets around other stars as though they were just a few million miles away, Space Patrol took a more realistic approach. Because of limited speed, trips to other planets in our solar system could take weeks or months and this was facilitated by the crew of the Galasphere going into a freezer chamber and being put in suspended animation for the trip. A robot would then take over (its movements were said to cost £2,000 a time rather than being just a puppet.) The {{not a typo|zirgon}} ray (faster than light) could be used from Earth to wake them up in an emergency. The term \"galaxy\" was used inaccurately, but consistently, to refer to a solar system in the series, so \"Galactic Control\" only supervised the local planets and \"other galaxies\" referred to nearby star-systems.\n</p><p>On other planets, they would use dial-selector translators (dial P for Pluto) to talk to alien beings – at the time, even some serious scientists considered the possibility of life on Venus, Mars and maybe elsewhere. Unusually for a TV show, the translators didn't instantly pick up new languages; they had to be programmed on Earth before they could be used, a lengthy process requiring recordings of the alien language. Life support in hazardous atmospheres was provided by a \"Mo-lung\" (short for 'Mobile Lung')- a sealed cylindrical transparent helmet, and the crew would often ride around on \"Hover Jets\", or more rarely, an \"Ion Gun\" which looked like a giant sparkler firework. Neptune was said to have atomic heating but none of the planets were really cold, such as when Dart walked about on Pluto (in \"The Buried Spaceship\") without any extra protection in what would be temperatures of about −230&nbsp;°C.\n</p><p>The Galasphere had a top speed of about 800,000&nbsp;mph, using \"meson power\". In \"The Talking Bell\" episode, they use \"Boost Speed\", which is dangerous, but allows them to travel at almost one million miles per hour for a long period. Meson power is dangerous to use in atmosphere. The engine also used <a href=\"/wiki/Gamma_rays\" title=\"Gamma rays\">gamma rays</a> and 'Yobba rays'. The Galasphere has a force field which would protect it from enemy missiles, and it also turned out to protect them from the mind control of the evil Neptunians who were thousands of years ahead of Earth people, with great mental powers, and who hated work.\n</p><p>The Galasphere was constructed of Plutonite from Pluto, and a number of times, like in \"The Human Fish\", it also travelled underwater. Pluto was the furthest they normally travelled but after an accident they went way beyond that to a self-heated new planet which was full of giants who treated the Galasphere as a toy. Another time, an alien from Alpha Centauri visited them and installed a device which allowed the Galasphere to travel faster than light (at which point it vanished). They had their adventure twenty five trillion miles away and then returned to Earth, and just made it, with Galasphere 347 collapsing under the strain of such travel, just as they left it. In \"The Planet of Light\", Dart and Slim were taken to a planet circling Sirius (8.7 light years away) in just a few hours. This fast journey was necessary as the \"light beings\" who took them would be poisoned by air, so the two had to rely on their own supplies.\n</p><p>In \"The Rings of Saturn\" and a minority of other episodes, the crew rode the Galasphere 024, rather than the Galasphere 347. The references to Galasphere 024 are, for the most part, continuity errors introduced by the continual re-use of stock footage from the pilot episode, \"The Swamps of Jupiter\". Although the Galasphere is referred to as 024 during the takeoff programme sequence, it is often later referred to as 347 in the same episode.\n</p><p><a href=\"/wiki/Colin_Ronan\" title=\"Colin Ronan\">Colin Ronan</a> is listed as Space Consultant in the end credits.\n</p>", "<h2>Production</h2>\n<p>The series was filmed in converted church buildings in <a href=\"/wiki/Stoke_Newington\" title=\"Stoke Newington\">Stoke Newington</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Harlesden\" title=\"Harlesden\">Harlesden</a>, London.<ref name=\"Fryer\">{{Cite book | last1 = Fryer | first1 = Ian | title=The Worlds of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson: The Story Behind International Rescue | year = 2016 | publisher = Fonthill Media | isbn = 978-1-78155-504-0 | chapter = ''Space Patrol'' | pages = 45–50}}</ref> The production was completed in two blocks consisting of 26 and 13 episodes, which are considered as the first series.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Cater|first1=Martin|title=Space Patrol: The Complete Series|journal=TV Zone Yearbook|date=1997|issue=Special No. 27|page=80}}</ref> The final 13 episodes employ refurbished puppets and sets, and are copyrighted 1962 Wonderama Productions on the end credits (the first 26 episodes omitted any on-screen copyright information).\n</p><p>Various puppets from the series were re-used in later Roberta Leigh productions including <i>Wonderboy and Tiger</i> and <i>Send for Dithers</i>.

These images indicate that the puppets were dressed in monochromatic uniforms, although most comic strip and book illustrations depict them as red and silver.

As most armies were still heavily dependent on horses, the <a href=\"/wiki/Imperial_Japanese_Army\" title=\"Imperial Japanese Army\">Imperial Japanese Army</a> hoped to find ways to kill them and therefore to weaken military power. Furthermore, they hoped to spread disease via animal carriers. To this end, former members claim that experiments were also conducted with human beings. In practice, <a href=\"/wiki/Unit_731\" title=\"Unit 731\">Unit 731</a> was the group tasked with developing biological weapons against humans. Although smaller than Unit 731, Unit 100 was still a large organization.

We knew that such a dose of heroin is fatal, but it did not make any difference to us whether he died or lived. On some of the prisoners I experimented 5-6 times, testing the action of <a href=\"/wiki/Convolvulus_arvensis\" title=\"Convolvulus arvensis\">Korean bindweed</a>, <a href=\"/wiki/Bactal\" title=\"Bactal\">bactal</a> and <a href=\"/wiki/Castor_oil\" title=\"Castor oil\">castor oil</a> seeds.

After the injection, the man died at once. Bodies were buried in the unit's cattle cemetery.\"\n</dd></dl></p><p>Unit chief Yujiro Wakamatsu ordered Hirazakura to purchase hundreds of cattle and put them to pasture along the Siberian border north-east of Hailar, ready to be infected by airborne dispersion. It was hoped that in the event of a Soviet invasion these infected livestock would mingle with local herds to cause epidemics and to destroy food supplies.\n</p><p>Unit 100 staff poisoned and drugged Russians, Chinese and Koreans with heroin, castor oil, tobacco and other substances for weeks at a time. Some died during the experimentation. When survivors were determined to no longer be useful for experimentation and were complaining of illness, staff told them they would receive a shot of medicine, but instead executed them with potassium cyanide injections.

The Puerto Rican police arrested many Nationalist Party members under this law, some of whom were sentenced to lengthy prison terms.

Since its 1898 invasion, the United States had tried to destroy the nationality of Puerto Rican people. It kept Puerto Rico in isolation, maintaining it as private corporation from which it earned billions a year ... exploitation had made foreigners richer and the Puerto Rican people poorer.

Kirk\">Kirk</a> to solve their problem.\n</p><p>The episode was co-written by actor Stanley Adams who portrayed <a href=\"/wiki/Cyrano_Jones\" title=\"Cyrano Jones\">Cyrano Jones</a> in the <i>Star Trek</i> episode \"<a href=\"/wiki/The_Trouble_with_Tribbles\" title=\"The Trouble with Tribbles\">The Trouble with Tribbles</a>\".\n</p>", "<h2>Plot</h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"/wiki/United_Federation_of_Planets\" title=\"United Federation of Planets\">Federation</a> <a href=\"/wiki/Starship\" title=\"Starship\">starship</a> <i><a href=\"/wiki/USS_Enterprise_%28NCC-1701%29\" title=\"USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)\">Enterprise</a></i> arrives at the planet Gideon to discuss diplomatic relations. The Gideons will permit only one representative, Captain <a href=\"/wiki/James_T._Kirk\" title=\"James T. Kirk\">Kirk</a>, to set foot on their planet. Kirk beams down to the coordinates provided, but finds himself apparently still aboard the <i>Enterprise</i>, which is now devoid of any crew.\n</p><p>First Officer <a href=\"/wiki/Spock\" title=\"Spock\">Spock</a> is informed that the Captain has not arrived on the planet, but the Gideon Ambassador, Hodin, refuses to allow a search team to investigate. Neither <a href=\"/wiki/Starfleet\" title=\"Starfleet\">Starfleet</a> Command nor the Federation bureaucracy is of any help, each referring the matter to the other.\n</p><p>Meanwhile, Kirk wanders the deserted corridors and notices a strange bruise on his arm. He eventually encounters a beautiful young woman named Odona. She claims to have no idea how she got there, recalling only that she was in an overcrowded auditorium and struggling to breathe. For the moment, Odona is just relieved to have freedom of movement. Kirk insists that she must be from Gideon, but Odona denies any knowledge of the planet.\n</p><p>Kirk learns from Odona that her home planet is severely <a href=\"/wiki/Overpopulation_%28biology%29\" title=\"Overpopulation (biology)\">overpopulated</a>, with crowds of people everywhere and no privacy, because death is rare. To her, the privilege of being alone, even for a moment, is a dream come true. Kirk is taken by Odona's beauty, and the two share a passionate kiss. Neither notices the image of two dozen faces appearing on the view screen behind them.\n</p><p>As Kirk and Odona leave the bridge, Kirk hears a strange sound outside the ship. He goes to a viewport and catches a glimpse of a crowd of people looking in. The scene quickly changes to a normal view of space. Kirk confronts Odona about what is going on, but she denies knowing what is happening. She then complains of a strange feeling and faints into Kirk's arms.\n</p><p>Kirk carries her to <a href=\"/wiki/Sick_bay\" title=\"Sick bay\">sick bay</a>, where he encounters Ambassador Hodin, who informs him that Odona, his daughter, is suffering from <a href=\"/wiki/Vega\" title=\"Vega\">Vegan</a> <a href=\"/wiki/Meningitis\" title=\"Meningitis\">choriomeningitis</a>, having been infected with Kirk's blood, which <a href=\"/wiki/Asymptomatic_carrier\" title=\"Asymptomatic carrier\">carries</a> the virus. Hodin's plan is to infect the Gideon population with the virus, shortening their immense lifespans and relieving the population problem. Kirk is to supply the virus, while Odona's death is to serve as an inspiration for future volunteers. Questioned about alternatives, Hodin explains that the Gideon people's regenerative abilities would foil sterilization attempts, and that other methods of <a href=\"/wiki/Birth_control\" title=\"Birth control\">birth control</a> would never be accepted.\n</p><p>Having realized that Hodin has deceived him, Spock goes against Starfleet orders and beams down to Kirk's original coordinates. Once there, he finds the false <i>Enterprise</i> that was built to confuse Kirk. He soon reaches Kirk and Odona, and asks Hodin not to interfere as he, Spock, is in enough trouble already. Kirk, Spock, and Odona return to the real <i>Enterprise</i>, where Chief Medical Officer <a href=\"/wiki/Leonard_McCoy\" title=\"Leonard McCoy\">Dr. McCoy</a> treats Odona's condition. Odona now plans to return to Gideon to supply the virus herself. Kirk forgives her for her deception.\n</p>", "<h2>Production and reception</h2>\n<p>In 2017, <i><a href=\"/wiki/Den_of_Geek\" title=\"Den of Geek\">Den of Geek</a></i> ranked \"The Mark of Gideon\" as the 14th \"best worst\" <i>Star Trek</i> episode of the original series.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/the-15-best-worst-episodes-of-star-trek-the-original-series/|title=The 15 Best Worst Episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series|website=Den of Geek|date=September 16, 2017 |language=en|access-date=2019-06-10}}</ref>\n</p>", "<h2> Releases </h2>\n<p>This episode was released in Japan on December 21, 1993 as part of the complete season 3 LaserDisc set, <i>Star Trek: Original Series log.3</i>.<ref name=\":03\">{{Cite web|title=LaserDisc Database - Star Trek: Original Series log.3 [PILF-1711]|url=https://www.lddb.com/laserdisc/00116/PILF-1711/Star-Trek:-Original-Series-log.3|access-date=2021-02-23|website=www.lddb.com}}</ref> A trailer for this and the other episodes was also included, and the episode had English and Japanese audio tracks.<ref name=\":03\" /> The cover script was スター・トレック TVサードシーズン <ref name=\":03\" />\n</p><p>This episode was included in TOS Season 3 remastered <a href=\"/wiki/DVD\" title=\"DVD\">DVD</a> box set, with the remastered version of this episode.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2009-05-20|title=Star Trek: The Remastered Series Seasons 1, 2 & 3 review|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/star-trek-the-remastered-series-seasons-1-2-3-review/|access-date=2021-02-23|website=Den of Geek|language=en-US}}</ref>\n</p>", "<h2>See also</h2><p> \n<ul><li> <i><a href=\"/wiki/The_Marching_Morons\" title=\"The Marching Morons\">The Marching Morons</a></i> – 1951 short story with mostly same plot, albeit more crass execution\n</li></ul></p>", "<h2>References</h2>\n<p>{{Reflist}}\n</p>", "<h2>External links</h2>\n<p>{{wikiquote|Star Trek: The Original Series#The Mark of Gideon|\"The Mark of Gideon\"}}\n<ul><li> {{StarTrek.com|mark-of-gideon|\"The Mark of Gideon\"}}\n</li><li>{{IMDb episode|0708470}}\n</li><li> {{Memory Alpha|The Mark of Gideon (episode)|\"The Mark of Gideon\"}}\n</li><li> <a href=\"http://trekmovie.com/2008/06/01/the-mark-of-gideon-remastered-review-screenshots-video/#more-2027\">\"The Mark of Gideon\"</a> Review of the remastered version at <a href=\"/wiki/TrekMovie.com\" title=\"TrekMovie.com\">TrekMovie.com</a>\n</li><li><a href=\"http://www.orionpressfanzines.com/articles/mark_of_gideon.htm\">The Mark of Gideon</a> story outline dated July 12, 1968; Report and analysis by Dave Eversole\n</li><li><a href=\"http://www.chakoteya.net/StarTrek/72.htm\"> Star Trek Transcripts - The Mark of Gideon</a>\n</li></ul></p><p>{{Star Trek: The Original Series episodes|3}}\n</p><p>{{DEFAULTSORT:Mark of Gideon, The}}\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Star_Trek:_The_Original_Series_season_3_episodes\" title=\"Star Trek: The Original Series season 3 episodes\">Category:Star Trek: The Original Series season 3 episodes</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Overpopulation_fiction\" title=\"Overpopulation fiction\">Category:Overpopulation fiction</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:1969_American_television_episodes\" title=\"1969 American television episodes\">Category:1969 American television episodes</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Television_episodes_directed_by_Jud_Taylor\" title=\"Television episodes directed by Jud Taylor\">Category:Television episodes directed by Jud Taylor</a></p>" ] }

Motorola said that the Dyna-Tac would weigh {{convert|3|lb}} and would cost between $60 and $100 per month. Motorola predicted that the cost would decrease to $10 or $12 per month in no more than 20 years. Motorola said that, while the Dyna-Tac would not use the same network as the existing mobile service network, it anticipated resolving this so that all mobile devices would use the same network by around 1980.<ref>Corya, Robert (April 5, 1973). \"<a href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/312584336/\">Portable Phone Here: Motorola</a>\". <i>The Indianapolis News</i> (Indianapolis, Indiana). p. 56.</ref> By 1975, Motorola's expectations had changed; the Dyna-Tac was anticipated to be released to the public by 1985 because of <a href=\"/wiki/U.S._Federal_Communications_Commission\" title=\"U.S. Federal Communications Commission\">U.S. Federal Communications Commission</a> proceedings.<ref>Moeller, Phillip (August 27, 1975). \"<a href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/\">Red Tape Holds Up Portable Phones</a>\". <i>Chicago Sun-Times</i>.

Martin Cooper, a former general manager for the systems division at Motorola, led a team that produced the DynaTAC 8000X, the first commercially available cellular phone small enough to be easily carried, and made the first phone call from it. Martin Cooper was the first person to make an analog cellular mobile phone call on a prototype in 1973.\n</p><p>The Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was very large compared to phones today. This first cell phone was very expensive when it was released in the US in 1984. The DynaTAC's retail price, $3,995 (about ${{formatnum:{{Inflation|US|3995|1984|r=-2}}}} in {{Inflation-year|US}}),{{Inflation-fn|US}} ensured that it would not become a mass-market item (the minimum wage in the United States was $3.35 per hour in 1984, which meant that it required more than 1192 hours of work – more than 7 months at a standard 40 hour work week – just working for the phone, without taxes);<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dollartimes.com/inflation/items/1984-united-states-minimum-wage|title=1984 United States Minimum Wage in Today's Dollars}}</ref> by 1998, when Mitchell retired, cellphones and associated services made up two thirds of Motorola's $30{{nbsp}}billion in revenue.<ref>John F.

In some cases, this could cause major problems with the battery, occasionally short circuiting it and rendering it unusable. Also, charging the battery at a high enough rate to substantially raise its temperature will cause the battery to wear at an accelerated rate, reducing the number of charge-discharge cycles that can be performed before the battery will need to be replaced. (However, considering the high cost of the DynaTAC, the cost of battery replacement would not typically be a concern to DynaTAC owners.)\n</p><p>Available, too, was a snug-fitting zippered leather case which covered the entire body of the phone and had a clear plastic front to make the user interface accessible. It featured a sturdy spring-steel belt clip and a small cutaway at the top to allow the antenna to protrude. Charging could still be performed with the cover on, but change of battery required its removal.\n</p><p>DynaTAC relates to US phones used on the DynaTAC system in the US, not phones in use in the UK.\n</p>", "<h2> See also </h2>\n<ul><li> <a href=\"/wiki/Advanced_Mobile_Phone_System\" title=\"Advanced Mobile Phone System\">AMPS</a>\n</li><li> <a href=\"/wiki/History_of_mobile_phones\" title=\"History of mobile phones\">History of mobile phones</a>\n</li></ul>", "<h2>References</h2>\n<p>{{Reflist|25em}}\n</p><p>{{Motorola phones}}\n</p><p>{{DEFAULTSORT:Motorola Dynatac}}\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:First_generation_mobile_telecommunications\" title=\"First generation mobile telecommunications\">Category:First generation mobile telecommunications</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Motorola_mobile_phones\" title=\"Motorola mobile phones\">DynaTAC</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Mobile_phones_introduced_in_1984\" title=\"Mobile phones introduced in 1984\">Category:Mobile phones introduced in 1984</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Computer-related_introductions_in_1984\" title=\"Computer-related introductions in 1984\">Category:Computer-related introductions in 1984</a></p>" ] }

Since, as Wright puts it, the realization of such prospects is dependent upon increased levels of <a href=\"/wiki/Globalization\" title=\"Globalization\">globalization</a>, communication, cooperation, and trust, what is thought of as human intelligence is really just a long step in an evolutionary process of organisms (as well as their networks and individual parts) getting better at processing information.<ref name=\"NZ-B-H-01\" />\n</p><p>Through this lens, and an overview of <a href=\"/wiki/Human_history\" title=\"Human history\">human history</a>, Wright typifies the argument against the views of noted paleontologist <a href=\"/wiki/Stephen_Jay_Gould\" title=\"Stephen Jay Gould\">Stephen Jay Gould</a>. Gould wrote that \"Humans are here by the luck of the draw.\" Wright acknowledges one aspect of Gould's argument—that the evolutionary process was not such that it would inevitably create humans as we know them today (\"five fingers, five toes, and so on\") but that evolution would almost certainly result in the creation of highly intelligent, communicating organisms, who would in turn develop tools and advanced technologies.\n</p><p>Evidence for natural selection driving improvements in information processing is given throughout, including the case of the <a href=\"/wiki/Bombardier_beetle\" title=\"Bombardier beetle\">bombardier beetle</a>, an insect that developed the ability to spray its attackers with harsh chemicals. This, in turn, favored predators via natural selection who had techniques to avoid the spray. As Wright puts it, \"complexity breeds complexity.\" This is the often referred to evolutionary phenomenon of the \"<a href=\"/wiki/Evolutionary_arms_race\" title=\"Evolutionary arms race\">arms race</a>,\" wherein competing organisms stack up their developments in competition with one another.\n</p><p>Via this increasing complexity, according to <i>Nonzero</i>, higher intelligence was thus destined to happen, perhaps even \"inevitable\".\n</p>", "<h2> Complexity and zero-sum solutions in human society </h2>\n<p>Wright argues that as complexity in human society increases, the ability to reap \"non-zero-sum gains\" increases. For example, electronic communications enable trade at a global level, and allow various societies to trade in items they could not produce or obtain otherwise, resulting in benefits for everyone: new goods. Similarly, global governments allow global solutions to common problems. Were aliens to attack, or the Arctic glaciers to melt, the world would be able to use its communicative technologies to band societies together and defend itself at large. In fact, this view of the world as an organic entity itself is touched upon in the penultimate chapter of the book, and is similar to that of <a href=\"/wiki/Gaia_theory\" title=\"Gaia theory\">Gaia theory</a>.\n</p><p>Of course, when societies band together to fight a common enemy, that enemy is not always an Arctic glacier, but rather, other human societies. Wright discusses this as well, arguing that war between nations often resulted in technological and cultural evolution. For example, <a href=\"/wiki/World_War_II\" title=\"World War II\">World War II</a> spurred the development of the <a href=\"/wiki/Manhattan_Project\" title=\"Manhattan Project\">Manhattan Project</a> and, in turn, <a href=\"/wiki/Nuclear_power\" title=\"Nuclear power\">nuclear power</a> and related research—a technology that may ultimately benefit the world at large. Further, societies with advanced governments were more likely to succeed in war, spreading government systems as a technology in and of itself.\n</p>", "<h2> Structure </h2>\n<p>The book is composed in three sections, each one more or less independent, but contributing to the development of his overall thesis.\n</p><h3> Part I: A brief history of Humankind </h3>\n<p>This section is a sound summary of human cultural development, fairly conventional, except for his references to game theory and the occasional interjection of metaphysical speculation.\n</p><h3> Part II: A brief history of Organic Life </h3>\n<p>This section is again a broadly conventional overview of current understanding of the development of life on earth.

All have increased over evolutionary time, but none is the \"natural end\" of the evolutionary process. Would anyone single out lethal weaponry as \"highly likely\" or our \"destiny,\" just because weapons have become more lethal over organic and human history?\" -<a href=\"/wiki/Steven_Pinker\" title=\"Steven Pinker\">Steven Pinker</a>, from <a href=\"http://www.slate.com/id/2000143/entry/1004510/\">Nonzero, Slate.com</a>.\n</dd></dl><p>Similarly, the idea of greater and greater non-zero-sum gains benefiting the world at large is also debated, as such technologies allow the injury of ever larger numbers of people. While Wright believes that the goal of natural selection is increasing non-zero-sum gains, it is also clear that these gains might not benefit everyone. Though this does not in any way invalidate Wright's thesis, it does dampen the optimism Wright appears to hold for non-zero-sum dynamics. Indeed, in a world of separated, village-like units, atrocities within <a href=\"/wiki/Joseph_Stalin\" title=\"Joseph Stalin\">Joseph Stalin</a>'s Soviet Union or <a href=\"/wiki/Adolf_Hitler\" title=\"Adolf Hitler\">Adolf Hitler</a>'s <a href=\"/wiki/Third_Reich\" title=\"Third Reich\">Third Reich</a> could not have occurred. (Of course, life within those village-like units had its own inherent problems, and the question of which point in history was better is addressed by arguments within <a href=\"/wiki/Teleology\" title=\"Teleology\">teleology</a>—whether history has a direction, and thus if history has shown consistent progress.) Wright believes that overall there has been net progress (with some exceptions), and further, that this progress will continue. In response to Wright's assumption that cooperation and communication will continue to increase, Pinker writes:\n</p><dl><dd>\"...global cooperation and moral progress will not increase toward some theoretical maximum or Teilhardesque <a href=\"/wiki/Omega_Point\" title=\"Omega Point\">Omega Point</a>, but will level off at a point where the pleasures resulting from global cooperation (having more stuff than you had before) are balanced by the pleasures resulting from non-cooperation (having more stuff than your neighbors, or the warm glow of ethnic chauvinism).\" -<a href=\"/wiki/Steven_Pinker\" title=\"Steven Pinker\">Steven Pinker</a>, from <a href=\"http://www.slate.com/id/2000143/entry/1004510/\">Nonzero, Slate.com</a>.\n</dd></dl><p>Pinker also challenges Wright's core thesis, echoing the case made by <a href=\"/wiki/Stephen_Jay_Gould\" title=\"Stephen Jay Gould\">Stephen Jay Gould</a>, that human-like organisms are no more than a coincidence:\n</p><dl><dd>\"A species with humanlike intelligence was no more \"in the cards\" than a species with an elephantlike trunk--both are just handy biological gadgets. (Of course, given enough time, humanlike intelligence is near-certain to evolve; but given enough time, anything with nonzero probability is near-certain to evolve, including an elephantlike trunk.) A brain with the intelligence necessary for cooperation and specialization is metabolically expensive and biomechanically hazardous, and evolves only when the evolutionary precursor and current ecosystem make the benefits exceed the costs. Most lineages (e.g., of plants) never got smart, and all lineages of animals on earth except ours were stuck well beneath the subgenius level.\" -<a href=\"/wiki/Steven_Pinker\" title=\"Steven Pinker\">Steven Pinker</a>, from <a href=\"http://www.slate.com/id/2000143/entry/1004510/\">Nonzero, Slate.com</a>.\n</dd></dl>", "<h2> Wright's response to criticism </h2>\n<p>Wright acknowledges several of these criticisms within <i>Nonzero</i> itself and in turn responds with his purpose in writing the book—that by acknowledging options to reap non-zero-sum gains, societies might work to decrease zero-sum losses, like the loss of resources used in the pursuit of armed conflict.\n</p><p>In response to Pinker's comments regarding the inevitability of human-like intelligence (as versus to the elephant trunk), Wright replies:\n</p><p>{{quote|A human level of intelligence--unlike an elephant's trunk--is a key step in [the march of evolution], for it gives rise to a rapid and powerful kind of cultural evolution, an evolution that increasingly, in a sense, takes on a life of its own, and has gotten us from the stone age to now... The modern world, it seems to me, features a second kind of validation of my emphasis on the biological evolution of intelligence, and my insistence that biological and cultural evolution have important parallels. A number of observers have noted that the Internet (defined broadly, to include the people who communicate over it) strikingly resembles a giant global brain. No one has claimed that it resembles a giant elephant's trunk.|[[Robert Wright (journalist)]]|[http://www.slate.com/id/2000143/entry/1004510/ Nonzero, Slate.com]}}\n</p><p>There is also the question of whether non-zero-sum gains will&mdash;or even should&mdash;benefit all members of society under any system of <a href=\"/wiki/Egalitarianism\" title=\"Egalitarianism\">egalitarianism</a>. Wright does argue that increased levels of communication will inevitably lead to a decrease in enmity between some populations. Still, this does not answer the question of whether some members of society will ever \"catch-up\" in terms of technological connectedness, or if some might be barred entirely by some kind of oppressive (but still productive) political system. Wright states on p.&nbsp;329 of <i>Nonzero</i> (Vintage Paperback edition) that \"one can well imagine, as the Internet nurtures more and more communities of interest, true friendships more and more crossing the most dangerous fault lines&mdash;boundaries of religion, of nationality, of ethnicity, of culture.\" Wright then states in his endnote to the section, \"a big question is whether boundaries of social class will be so easily crossed &mdash; or whether, on the other hand, differences of social class within a society might sharpen as people invest more of their energy in virtual communities consisting of like-minded people.\"\n</p><p>Though Wright clearly does not posit an answer to the question of struggles among economic classes&mdash;whether they be because of or in spite of natural selection&mdash;some argue it is relevant to Wright's treatment of evolution as resulting in greater and greater moral progress, and thus strangely ignored, given that Wright is the author of another book examining human morality <i><a href=\"/wiki/The_Moral_Animal\" title=\"The Moral Animal\">The Moral Animal</a></i>.\n</p>", "<h2> Wright and creationists </h2>\n<p>Wright argues for the possibility of divine purpose (and thus for the concept of <a href=\"/wiki/God\" title=\"God\">God</a> as a creating entity) but is against <a href=\"/wiki/Creationism\" title=\"Creationism\">creationism</a>, and theories on <a href=\"/wiki/Intelligent_design\" title=\"Intelligent design\">intelligent design</a>. He argued against the concepts in articles related to <i>Nonzero</i>.\n</p><p>Like most biologists, Wright firmly rejects the notion of divine biological manipulation. But Wright does leave open the possibility of divine intervention in the case of human consciousness, which he does not see as being easily explained by natural selection. <a href=\"/wiki/Consciousness\" title=\"Consciousness\">Consciousness</a>&mdash;humans' ability to ponder their own existence&mdash;seems a strange outgrowth of the evolutionary process for Wright. He describes the alternative as humans that are devoid of consciousness and behave like <a href=\"/wiki/Philosophical_zombie\" title=\"Philosophical zombie\">zombies</a> that form romantic relationships, eat, sleep, and have discussions only because they are programmed to via cultural and genetic transmission.\n</p><p>Wright argues that consciousness is still a mystery in terms of evolutionary purpose, and leaves open the possibility that a divine entity introduced the phenomenon of consciousness. Wright also debates whether or not entities aside from humans possess consciousness.\n</p><p>Wright also briefly questions the possibilities regarding what created natural selection, but Wright himself refers to his comments as highly speculative.\n</p><p>Wright's idea of <i><a href=\"/wiki/Divinity\" title=\"Divinity\">divinity</a></i> is further explored in his follow-up book, <i>The Evolution of God</i>. He does not argue that an intelligent being is behind it all, but that the existence of a process that could be called <i>divine</i> is suggested, much the way the existence of electrons is suggested by the inner workings of a computer (despite no one ever seeing one).\n</p>", "<h2> Bibliographical information </h2>\n<p><i>Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny</i>, January 2001 {{ISBN|0-679-44252-9}}, {{ISBN|0-679-75894-1}}\n</p><p><i><a href=\"/wiki/The_Evolution_of_God\" title=\"The Evolution of God\">The Evolution of God</a>,</i> June 2009 {{ISBN|978-0-316-73491-2}} (Hardcover, 1st edition)\n</p>", "<h2>References</h2>\n<p>{{Reflist|30em|refs=\n<ref name=NZ-B-H-01>{{cite web|title=Where Are We Headed?

In particular, the VRM initially provides a standard supply voltage to the VID logic, which is the part of the processor whose only aim is to then send the VID to the VRM. When the VRM has received the VID identifying the required supply voltage, it starts acting as a <a href=\"/wiki/Voltage_regulator\" title=\"Voltage regulator\">voltage regulator</a>, providing the required constant voltage and current supply to the processor.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/design-guides/voltage-regulator-module-9.0-dc-dc-converter-guidelines.pdf | title=VRM 9.0 DC-DC Converter - Design Guidelines | date=April 2002 | website=www.intel.com}}</ref>\n</p><p>Instead of having a power supply unit generate some fixed voltage, the CPU uses a small set of digital signals, the VID lines, to instruct an on-board power converter of the desired voltage level. The switch-mode <a href=\"/wiki/Buck_converter\" title=\"Buck converter\">buck converter</a> then adjusts its output accordingly. The flexibility so obtained makes it possible to use the same power supply unit for CPUs with different nominal supply voltages and to reduce <a href=\"/wiki/Power_consumption\" title=\"Power consumption\">power consumption</a> during idle periods by lowering the supply voltage.<ref>{{Cite web | title=Voltage Regulator-Down (VRD) 11.0 | url=http://www.intel.com/assets/pdf/designguide/313214.pdf | date=November 2006 | website=www.intel.com}}</ref>\n</p><p>For example, a unit with 5-bit VID would output one of at most 32 (2⁵) distinct output voltages. These voltages are usually (but not always) evenly spaced within a given range. Some of the <a href=\"/wiki/Code_word_%28communication%29\" title=\"Code word (communication)\">code words</a> may be reserved for special functions such as shutting down the unit, hence a 5-bit VID unit may have fewer than 32 output voltage levels. How the numerical codes map to supply voltages is typically specified in tables provided by component manufacturers. Since 2008 VID comes in 5-, 6- and 8-bit varieties and is mostly applied to power modules outputting between {{nowrap|0.5 V}} and {{nowrap|3.5 V}}.\n</p>", "<h2>VRM and overclocking</h2>\n<p>The VRMs are essential for <a href=\"/wiki/Overclocking\" title=\"Overclocking\">overclocking</a>. The quality of a VRM directly impacts the motherboard’s overclocking potential. The same overclocked processor can exhibit noticeable performance differences when paired with different VRMs. The reason for this is that a steady power supply is needed for successful overclocking. When a chip is pushed past its factory settings, that increases the power draw, so the VRM needs to match its output accordingly.<ref>{{Cite web |title=What is VRM and Why it's an Important Part of the Motherboard? |url=https://valbyte.com/what-is-vrm/ |access-date=2021-11-29 |language=en-US}}</ref>\n</p>", "<h2>See also</h2>\n<ul><li> <a href=\"/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply_applications\" title=\"Switched-mode power supply applications\">Switched-mode power supply applications</a> (SMPS) applications\n</li><li> <a href=\"/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation\" title=\"Pulse-width modulation\">Pulse-width modulation</a>\n</li></ul>", "<h2> References </h2>\n<p>{{Reflist|30em}}\n</p>", "<h2>External links</h2>\n<p>{{commonscat|Voltage regulator modules}}\n<ul><li><a href=\"http://elecdesign.com/Articles/Index.cfm?AD=1&amp;ArticleID=8637\">\"Microprocessor Power Management\"</a>\n</li></ul></p><p><a href=\"/wiki/Category:Voltage_regulation\" title=\"Voltage regulation\">Module</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:Digital_electronics\" title=\"Digital electronics\">Category:Digital electronics</a>\n<a href=\"/wiki/Category:MOSFETs\" title=\"MOSFETs\">Category:MOSFETs</a></p>" ] }
