APL ( named after the book A Programming Language ) is an interactive array-oriented language and integrated development environment, which is available from a number of commercial and noncommercial vendors and for most computer platforms .< ref >

This number connects to a computer at a local central office, which uses a voice synthesizer or digital samples to " speak " the phone number of the line calling in.

This is distinct from technical support and other lines which use ANI so that a computer can automatically display the customer's account on a " screen pop " for the next available customer service representative: the MCI number is intended specifically for ANAC use.

There are some private national toll-free numbers that use ANI and then have a computer read back the number that is calling, but these are not intended for use in identifying the customer's own phone number.

In computer science, the analysis of algorithms is the determination of the number of resources ( such as time and storage ) necessary to execute them.

The recent developments of computer automation and information technologies have innervated analytical chemistry to initiate a number of new biological fields.

This might sound complex, but first of all the number of di-atomic molecules that can exist at the temperatures of the atomizers used in AAS is relatively small, and second, the correction is performed by the computer within a few seconds.

The use of aerodynamics through mathematical analysis, empirical approximations, wind tunnel experimentation, and computer simulations form the scientific basis for heavier-than-air flight and a number of other technologies.

A file archiver is a computer program that combines a number of files together into one archive file, or a series of archive files, for easier transportation or storage.

* A number of journals, specific to subfields of computer science, titled ACM Transactions.

The ACM presents or co – presents a number of awards for outstanding technical and professional achievements and contributions in computer science and information technology.

Historically, a byte was the number of bits used to encode a single character of text in a computer and for this reason it is the basic addressable element in many computer architectures.

As a result of its free availability, knowledge of BASIC became relatively widespread ( for a computer language ) and BASIC was implemented by a number of manufacturers, becoming fairly popular on newer minicomputers like the DEC PDP series and the Data General Nova.

It was during this period that a number of simple computer games were written in BASIC, most notably Mike Mayfield's Star Trek.

In 1961, Lorenz was using a numerical computer model to rerun a weather prediction, when, as a shortcut on a number in the sequence, he entered the decimal. 506 instead of entering the full. 506127.

Early computer system documentation would specify the memory size with an exact number such as 4096, 8192, or 16384 words of storage.

The number of qubits in the computer is allowed to be a polynomial function of the instance size.

In the computer science subfield of algorithmic information theory, a Chaitin constant ( Chaitin omega number ) or halting probability is a real number that informally represents the probability that a randomly constructed program will halt.

If its value is 127 and it is instructed to add one, the computer can not store the number 128 in that space.

In computer music this subtle ingredient is bought at a high computational cost, both in terms of the number of items requiring detail in a score and in the amount of interpretive work the instruments must produce to realize this detail in sound.

Throughout the world there are many organizations and institutions dedicated to the area of computer and electronic music study and research, including the ICMA ( International Computer Music Association ), IRCAM, GRAME, SEAMUS ( Society for Electro Acoustic Music in the United States ), CEC ( Canadian Electroacoustic Community ), and a great number of institutions of higher learning around the world.

Abacá is vulnerable to a number of pathogens, notably abaca bunchy top virus and abaca bract mosaic virus.

Icosahedral virus capsids are typically assigned a triangulation number ( T-number ) to describe the relation between the number of pentagons and hexagons i. e. their quasi-symmetry in the capsid shell.

The T-number is calculated by ( 1 ) applying a grid to the surface of the virus with coordinates h and k, ( 2 ) counting the number of steps between successive pentagons on the virus surface, ( 3 ) applying the formula:

Haloarcula hispanica SH1 virus, Thermus aquaticus virus IN93 and Thermus thermophilus virus P23-77 share a number of unique structural features.

A number of viruses have been used for human gene therapy, including retrovirus, adenovirus, lentivirus, herpes simplex virus, vaccinia, pox virus, and adeno-associated virus.

These studies, which used adeno-associated virus, have spawned a number of new studies investigating gene therapy for human retinal disease.

Microsoft marketed Windows 2000 as the most secure Windows version ever at the time ; however, it became the target of a number of high-profile virus attacks such as Code Red and Nimda.

Reliably tested specific antiviral agents are few in number ( e. g. acyclovir for herpes simplex virus ) and are used with limited success in treatment of viral infection, with the exception of herpes simplex encephalitis.

A number of various diseases may present with symptoms similar to those caused by a clinical West Nile virus infection.

Recombinant adeno-associated virus ( rAAV ) vectors possess a number of features that render them ideally suited for retinal gene therapy, including a lack of pathogenicity, minimal immunogenicity, and the ability to transduce postmitotic cells in a stable and efficient manner.

However, initial results were not promising for several reasons, including high levels of leaf roll virus in older plantings, and, during the 1960s and 1970s, the limited number and indifferent quality of Pinot noir clones available for planting.

Paramyxoviruses ( from Greek para -, beyond ,-myxo -, mucus or slime, plus virus, from Latin poison, slime ) are viruses of the Paramyxoviridae family of the Mononegavirales order ; they are negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses responsible for a number of human and animal diseases.

The resulting heavy losses ( up to 90 %) caused by Infectious hypodermal and haematopoietic necrosis virus ( IHHNV ) caused a number of shrimp farming industries started to selectively breed shrimps resistant to this disease.

In an attempt to increase that number, a second virus ( rabbit calicivirus ) was introduced into the rabbit population in 1996.

In all the examples listed above, the word after the acronym repeats a word represented in the acronym — respectively, " Personal Identification Number number ", " Automated Teller Machine machine ", " Random Access Memory memory ", " Human Immunodeficiency Virus virus ", " Content Management System system ".

In 2008, in some parts of California and in Clark County, Nevada, mosquitofish were bred in aquariums so that people could stock stagnant pools of water with the mosquitofish to reduce the number West Nile virus cases.

The capsid is surrounded by a number of loosely associated proteins known collectively as the tegument ; many of these proteins play critical roles in initiating the process of virus reproduction in the infected cell.

A number of hoaxes have involved false documents:

This building is an official California Point of Historical Interest and includes its own ghost ( the Blue Lady ) which has been featured in a number of ghost hunting programs including Unsolved Mysteries. Sci-Fi's Ghost Hunters recently found their paranormal claims to be fraudulent by revealing that owners of the distillery have created various hoaxes simulating paranormal activity.

The Cardiff Giant has inspired a number of similar hoaxes.

For example, there were a large numbers of reported sightings of fenghuang ( Chinese phoenixes ) -- mythological birds who were considered symbols of divine favor — during this period, and while in ancient China there might have been " legitimate " sightings of phoenixes ( i. e., rare birds that were then-considered phoenixes ), a good number of these reports were later shown to be likely hoaxes, but Emperor Xuan accepted these reports without critically examining them.

To the amazement of the audience ( which included a number of priests ), he announced that Diana was one of a series of hoaxes.

Although Dr. Hynek started out as a skeptic and helped the Air Force to debunk most UFO reports, he gradually became convinced that a small number of UFO cases were not hoaxes or explainable as misidentifications of natural phenomena, and that these cases might represent something extraordinary — even alien visitation from other planets.
