Thirty Years' War The Thirty Years' War[l] took place largely within the Holy Roman Empire from 1618 to 1648. One of the most destructive wars in European history, it caused an estimated 4.5 to 8 million deaths, while some areas of Germany experienced population declines of over 50%. Related conflicts include the Eight...

In the previous set we started with arithmetic operations on vectors. We’ll take this a step further now, by practising functions to summarize, sort and round the elements of a vector. Sofar, the functions we have practised ( acos) always return a vector with the same length as the input vector. In other words, the fun...

Binary – base 2. We’re used to decimal, which is base 10, meaning we can use 0 through 9. In base 2, or binary, we use 0-1. The reason why computers use binary is that people tried and failed to make stable base 10 vacuum tubes back in the day. It’s much easier to represent just two possible states instead of 10. With ...
