) While Rotokas has a small alphabet because it has few phonemes to represent ( just eleven ), Book Pahlavi was small because many letters had been conflated — that is, the graphic distinctions had been lost over time, and diacritics were not developed to compensate for this as they were in Arabic, another script that lost many of its distinct letter shapes.

While this is intended as a clever con trick, the machine, surprisingly, works, sending Blackadder and Baldrick back to the time of the dinosaurs, where they manage to cause the extinction of the dinosaurs, through the use of Baldrick's best, worst and only pair of underpants as a weapon against a hungry T. Rex.

While it has skin and blood ( cellular organic systems ), these serve mainly as a disguise and are not symbiotic with the machine components, a trait of true cyborgs.

While the PDP-5 introduced a lower-cost line, 1963's PDP-6 was intended to take DEC into the mainframe market with a 36-bit machine.

While the violin, viola, and cello all use friction pegs for gross tuning adjustments, the double bass has metal machine heads.

While he had programmed extensively in machine code in the 1950s, he was known for his low opinion of the GOTO statement in computer programming, writing a paper in 1965, and culminating in the 1968 article " A Case against the GO TO Statement ", regarded as a major step towards the widespread deprecation of the GOTO statement and its effective replacement by structured control constructs, such as the while loop.

While the community was skeptical that this new method could possibly outperform hand-coding, it reduced the number of programming statements necessary to operate a machine by a factor of 20, and quickly gained acceptance.

While researching the analytical properties of magnetic resonance, Damadian created the world's first magnetic resonance imaging machine in 1972.

While most weapons are designed to be used exclusively in one manner or the other, FM 3-22. 68 " Crew-Served Machine Guns ", describes how the M249 can be used either as a machine gun or as an automatic rifle: " Both the M249 automatic rifle and the M249 machine gun are identical, but its employment is different.

While the dividing line between machine pistols and compact submachine guns is hard to draw, the term " submachine gun " usually refers to larger automatic firearms scaled down from a full-sized machine gun to fire handgun rounds, while the term " machine pistol " usually refers to a weapon built up from a semi-automatic pistol design.

While heavy machine guns such as the Maxim gun and the Vickers gun were fearsome defensive weapons in a built-up emplacement, they were very hard to move to a new position if the army had advanced to a new area, or if it had to fall back.

While some sources call the MAC-10 and MAC-11 machine pistols, the guns are also referred to as compact submachine guns.

While most machine pistols are designed to be fired with one hand, their light weight, small size, and extremely rapid rates of fire make them difficult to control.

While training doctrines for machine pistols vary between armies, in general, soldiers are instructed to use the weapon for short bursts, rather than for an uninterrupted period of automatic fire, because the weapon easily gets out of control in sustained firing, which means that many of the rounds may be off target.

While it is possible to write programs in machine code, because of the tedious difficulty in managing CPU resources, it is rarely done today, except for situations that require the most extreme optimization.
