For me, a changed barrel length or an improved stock doesn't constitute a truly new design.

For four of the six ( the anaconda and the amethystine python cannot be included for lack of data ) there is also a correlation between size at maturity and maximum length, the boa constrictor being the smallest and the Indian python the next in size at the former stage.

For a rectangle, the aspect ratio denotes the ratio of length to width of the rectangle.

For example, consider the following two strings of length 64, each containing only lowercase letters and digits:

For instance, binary search is said to run in a number of steps proportional to the logarithm of the length of the list being searched, or in O ( log ( n )), colloquially " in logarithmic time ".

For example, the flugelhorn differs from the cornet by having a higher percentage of its tubing length conical than does the cornet, in addition to possessing a wider bore than the cornet.

For example, some people pronounce ( meaning " fish ") as, the " r " is dropped and the vowel begins by dipping much lower in tone than standard speech and then rises, effectively doubling its length.

For example, the perimeter of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle approaches the circumference with increasing numbers of sides ( and decrease in the length of one side ).

For this reason cryptologists tend to look at indicators that an algorithm or key length shows signs of potential vulnerability, to move to longer key sizes or more difficult algorithms.

For trajectories other than circular motion, for example, the more general trajectory envisioned in the image above, the instantaneous center of rotation and radius of curvature of the trajectory are related only indirectly to the coordinate system defined by u < sub > ρ </ sub > and u < sub > θ </ sub > and to the length | r ( t )|

For a given f-number, increasing the magnification, either by moving closer to the subject or using a lens of greater focal length, decreases the DOF ; decreasing magnification increases DOF.

For the special case, this implies that the length of a vector is preserved as well — this is just Parseval's theorem:

For example, a rectangle with a width of 3 and a length of 4 has an area that represents the product, 12.

For example, the B < sup > 0 </ sup > meson has a lifetime of 1. 530 ( 9 ) picoseconds, mean decay length is, or a decay width of.

For spherical bodies, when the occulting object is smaller than the star, the length ( L ) of the umbra's cone-shaped shadow is given by:
