    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

    Error correction code memory (ECC memory) is a type of computer data storage that uses an error correction code (ECC) to detect and correct n-bit data corruption which occurs in memory.

  4. Octuple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octuple-precision_floating...

    v. t. e. In computing, octuple precision is a binary floating-point -based computer number format that occupies 32 bytes (256 bits) in computer memory. This 256- bit octuple precision is for applications requiring results in higher than quadruple precision. This format is rarely (if ever) used and very few environments support it.

    v. t. e. In computer architecture, 32-bit computing refers to computer systems with a processor, memory, and other major system components that operate on data in 32- bit units. [1] [2] Compared to smaller bit widths, 32-bit computers can perform large calculations more efficiently and process more data per clock cycle.
