* Browser games can be applet-based, though some may develop into fully functional applications that require installation.

For some applications, a single alpha channel is not sufficient: a stained-glass window, for instance, requires a separate transparency channel for each RGB channel to model the red transparency, green transparency, and blue transparency.

By providing extra storage this modification also allowed some games and applications intended for the BBC Micro to function on the Electron despite the lack of a native Mode 7.

* A very High resolution monochrome video card with blitter and hardware text line and arc drawing capability, was designed for CAD applications, based on the NEC µPD7220 chip designed for graphic terminals, but was also used by some personal computers like the DEC Rainbow, and notably also for the Tulip System I.

MS-DOS and Win16 subsystems ( only on i386 ) can run some applications for those platforms, and it has an OS / 2 subsystem for running CLI OS / 2 applications.

Biologics / Biopharmaceuticals ( e. g., vaccines, stored blood product ), genetic engineering, and various agricultural applications are some major classes of biotechnology.

Personal probabilities are problematic for science and for some applications where decision-makers lack the knowledge or time to specify an informed probability-distribution ( on which they are prepared to act ).

In some applications it is useful to be able to compute the Bernoulli numbers B < sub > 0 </ sub > through B < sub > p − 3 </ sub > modulo p, where p is a prime ; for example to test whether Vandiver's conjecture holds for p, or even just to determine whether p is an irregular prime.

This proved to be a significant impediment for some software developers, since many of the applications that benefit from SIMD primarily deal with floating point numbers.

Many reported IPS values have represented " peak " execution rates on artificial instruction sequences with few branches, whereas realistic workloads consist of a mix of instructions and applications, some of which take longer to execute than others.

This is sufficient for some pyrolysis applications.

In some applications, the spacebar is used to produce additional chords which enable the user to issue editing commands, such as moving the cursor, or deleting words.

A centrifugal clutch is used in some vehicles ( e. g., Mopeds ) and also in other applications where the speed of the engine defines the state of the clutch, for example, in a chainsaw.

The lack of full P5 Pentium compatibility caused problems with some applications because programmers had begun to use P5 Pentium-specific instructions.

The implementations differ: Microsoft Word was one of the first applications to only show sub-entries of some menu entries after clicking an arrow icon on the context menu, otherwise executing an action associated with the parent entry.

Context menus have received some criticism from usability analysts when improperly used, as some applications make certain features only available in context menus, which may confuse even experienced users ( especially when the context menus can only be activated in a limited area of the application's client window ).

* For many embedded applications, interrupt latency will be more critical than in some general-purpose processors.

Narrow viewing angle screens are used in some security conscious applications.

However, there are some applications that require results other than numbers.

They rapidly ceased to be used for most purposes, an exception being some high-voltage high-current applications subject to large transient peaks, where their robustness to abuse made them the best choice.

some enthusiasts favoured vacuum tube amplifiers for audio applications, sometimes using valve rather than semiconductor rectifiers.

As a final level of complexity, some applications ( such as web-browsers ) also have their own DNS cache, in order to reduce the use of the DNS resolver library itself.

These instruments had varying numbers of strings, though often including some form of drone.

Additionally, there is some chamber music for strings.

In information theory and computer science, a code is usually considered as an algorithm which uniquely represents symbols from some source alphabet, by encoded strings, which may be in some other target alphabet.

* It has six strings, though some classical guitars have seven or more strings.

The sound hole is normally a single round hole in the top of the guitar ( under the strings ), though some have different placement, shapes, or numbers of holes.

Sorting other date representations involves some parsing of the date strings.

A similar approach may be taken with strings representing dates or other items that can be ordered chronologically or in some other natural fashion.

* When some of the strings contain numerals ( or other non-letter characters ), various approaches are possible.

These inputs can be natural numbers, but may also be values of some other kind, such as strings over the binary alphabet

In some languages, in order for the functionality to be included in strings, the functionality has to be added to the String namespace itself.

Unlike the violone, however, the fingerboard of the double bass is unfretted, and the double bass has fewer strings ( the violone, like most viols, generally had six strings, although some specimens had five or four ).

A variant and much less-commonly used form of solo tuning used in some Eastern European countries is ( A-D-G-C ), which uses three of the strings from orchestral tuning ( A-D-G ) and then adds a high " C " string.

The ES-150 achieved some popularity, but suffered from unequal loudness across the six strings.

With the string section laid off, synthesisers took a dominating role, as was the trend in the larger music scene of the time, although studio strings were present on some of the tracks conducted by Rainer Pietsch, the overall soundscape had a more electronic feel in keeping with the futuristic nature of the album.

While formal language theory usually concerns itself with formal languages that are described by some syntactical rules, the actual definition of the concept " formal language " is only as above: a ( possibly infinite ) set of finite-length strings, no more nor less.

Kites were decorated with mythological motifs and legendary figures ; some were fitted with strings and whistles to make musical sounds while flying.

There may be some mechanism for raising or lowering the bridge saddles to adjust the distance between the strings and the fretboard ( action ), or fine-tuning the intonation of the instrument.

Now Φ ' has the form, where ( S ) and ( S ') are some quantifier strings, ρ and ρ ' are quantifier-free, and, furthermore, no variable of ( S ) occurs in ρ ' and no variable of ( S ') occurs in ρ.

The first four fingers of each hand are used to pluck the strings ; the little fingers are too short and cannot reach the correct position without distorting the position of the other fingers, although on some folk harps with light tension, closely spaced strings, they may occasionally be used.

The strings of a hammered dulcimer are usually found in pairs, two strings for each note ( though some instruments have three or four strings per note ).
