Dial + 64 ( 8 ) 320-1231, from USA / Canada and rest of NANP dial 011-64-8-320-1231 to hear your 3 digit area code & 7 digit local number read back to you from N. Z.

For that reason, civil law statutes tend to be somewhat more detailed than statutes written by common law legislatures – but, conversely, that tends to make the statute more difficult to read ( the United States tax code is an example ).

The code of laws was arranged in orderly groups, so that everyone who read the laws would know what was required of them.

This information is read using the genetic code, which specifies the sequence of the amino acids within proteins.

The code is read by copying stretches of DNA into the related nucleic acid RNA in a process called transcription.

This included the use of ROM for library software that could be run much faster than the same code in the normal core memory, due to the latter ’ s need to be written immediately after being read.

In practice, it is better to read the direct call to a setter rather than implying a direct access to a feature like as in the example code above.

What's interesting about this example is that the code will work even if the read () causes an error, for instance, if the file does not exist.

In 2007 the code was amended to read " persons who are mentally incapacitated.

To make the encoding smaller and easier to read the underscore is used to represent the ASCII code for space creating the side effect that underscore cannot be represented directly.

Even simple computers usually have one unit to read and write memory, and another to execute user code.

This information is read using the genetic code, which specifies the sequence of the amino acids within proteins.

The code is read by copying stretches of DNA into the related nucleic acid RNA in a process called transcription.

Besides the Bible, children needed to read in order to “ understand ... the capital laws of this country ,” as the Massachusetts code declared, order being of the utmost importance, and children not taught to read would grow “ barbarous ” ( the 1648 amendment to the Massachusetts law and the 1650 Connecticut code, both used the word “ barbarisme ”).

PAL-8 assembly language source code was often stored on paper tape, read into memory, and saved to paper tape.

** 64-bit external databus doubles the amount of information possible to read or write on each memory access and therefore allows the Pentium to load its code cache faster than the 80486 ; it also allows faster access and storage of 64-bit and 80-bit x87 FPU data.

** Separation of code and data caches lessens the fetch and operand read / write conflicts compared to the 486.

A related enhancement in the Pentium is the ability to read a contiguous block from the code cache even when it is split between two cache lines ( at least 17 bytes in worst case ).

An even more recent addition to the rn family has been the addition of scoring, which allows a more complex method of evaluating articles to determine whether the user wishes to read them ; originally this was implemented in a code fork of trn called strn, but later this was integrated into the official trn distribution.

It is easier to fix bugs because the source code is easy to read and the intent of its author is easy to grasp.

The source code is automatically translated at some point to machine code that the computer can directly read and execute.
