n
Alternative spelling of ones and zeroes [(computing, informal) Binary code; on and off bits.]
n
(computing) The convention by which bit patterns with high bit 0 represent positive numbers from 0 to 2ⁿ⁻¹-1 directly, while bit patterns with high bit 1 represent negative numbers from 0 to -(2ⁿ⁻¹-1), n being the word size of the machine, and the numeric complement of a number is its ones' complement.
n
(computing) An octoword.
n
(computing) A storage mode that places two decimal digits into one byte, each digit occupying four bits. The sign occupies four bits in the least significant byte.
n
(physics) A type of resonant logic element that may be used to represent a binary digit.
n
(computing) The count of one bits in a value, reduced to even or odd or zero or one.
n
American Library Association abbreviation of quarto (“book size”).
n
(computing) Four bits (binary digits), half a byte; a nibble.
n
(computing) A numerical value of four times the magnitude of a word, thus 64 bits on a 16-bit architecture.
n
(computing theory) A hierarchical level of privilege in a computer system, usually at hardware level, used to protect data and functionality (also protection ring).
n
(programming) A rule of thumb in the C++ programming language, stating that any class that defines a destructor, a copy constructor, or a copy assignment operator should define all three of them.
adj
Of an electronic device or display: consisting of three horizontal and four vertical lines, in an arrangement similar to the shape of the number 8, that may be individually shown or hidden, usually for the display of numeric digits; or consisting of a set of these arrangements.

n
(computing) The ternary equivalent of a byte.
n
Alternative form of Warnock algorithm [(computer graphics) An algorithm that solves the problem of rendering a complicated image by recursive subdivision of a scene until areas are obtained that are trivial to compute.]
Note: Concept clusters like the one above are an experimental OneLook
feature. We've grouped words and phrases into thousands of clusters
based on a statistical analysis of how they are used in writing. Some
of the words and concepts may be vulgar or offensive. The names of the
clusters were written automatically and may not precisely describe
every word within the cluster; furthermore, the clusters may be
missing some entries that you'd normally associate with their
names. Click on a word to look it up on OneLook.
