  2. NACA airfoil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NACA_airfoil

    L: a single digit representing the theoretical optimal lift coefficient at ideal angle of attack C LI = 0.15 L (this is not the same as the lift coefficient C L), P: a single digit for the x coordinate of the point of maximum camber (max. camber at x = 0.05 P), S: a single digit indicating whether the camber is simple (S = 0) or reflex (S = 1),

  3. Mnemonic major system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonic_major_system

    Learning a vocabulary of 3-digit numbers is harder, because ten times more images need to be learned for each extra digit. Many mnemonists, however, can use a set of over 1000 images. The combination of images into a narrative is easier to do rapidly than forming a coherent grammatical sentence.

  4. Universally unique identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier

    A Universally Unique Identifier ( UUID) is a 128-bit label used for information in computer systems. The term Globally Unique Identifier ( GUID) is also used, mostly in Microsoft systems. [ 1][ 2] When generated according to the standard methods, UUIDs are, for practical purposes, unique. Their uniqueness does not depend on a central ...

  5. de Bruijn sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Bruijn_sequence

    A de Bruijn sequence can be used to shorten a brute-force attack on a PIN -like code lock that does not have an "enter" key and accepts the last n digits entered. For example, a digital door lock with a 4-digit code (each digit having 10 possibilities, from 0 to 9) would have B (10, 4) solutions, with length 10 000.

  6. Luhn algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm

    Luhn algorithm. The Luhn algorithm or Luhn formula, also known as the " modulus 10" or "mod 10" algorithm, named after its creator, IBM scientist Hans Peter Luhn, is a simple check digit formula used to validate a variety of identification numbers. It is described in US patent 2950048A, granted on 23 August 1960. [1]

  7. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    A k-combination of a set S is a k-element subset of S: the elements of a combination are not ordered. Ordering the k-combinations of S in all possible ways produces the k-permutations of S. The number of k-combinations of an n-set, C(n,k), is therefore related to the number of k-permutations of n by: (,) = (,) (,) = _! =!

  8. Password strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

    Password strength. Options menu of the random password generation tool in KeePass. Enabling more character subsets raises the strength of generated passwords a small amount, whereas increasing their length raises the strength a large amount. Password strength is a measure of the effectiveness of a password against guessing or brute-force attacks.

  9. Combination lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination_lock

    A Wordlock letter combination lock.. A combination lock is a type of locking device in which a sequence of symbols, usually numbers, is used to open the lock. The sequence may be entered using a single rotating dial which interacts with several discs or cams, by using a set of several rotating discs with inscribed symbols which directly interact with the locking mechanism, or through an ...
