Visualize & Simulate
Any tool that uses a graph or a picture to extract meaning from data.
What is visualization (histograms, pie charts, bar graphs, and line graphs)?
A variable that has an unchanging assigned value.
What is fixed?
There are only 10 types of people, those who understand and those who don't.
What is binary code?
An if-then block in Scratch is an example of the this type of expression (it checks for truth before proceeding).
What is a Boolean expression or a conditional expression?
Possible RGB values.
What is 256 (values 0 through 255)?
Histogram are a good way to visualize this.
What is frequency?
This variable adds to the value, often keeping a running total.
What is an accumulator?
Binary math will limit this about of data to a maximum of 255.
What is one byte or eight bits?
In Python, this starts a function definition.
What is def?
In an RGBA image, this determines opacity or transparency.
What is the alpha channel (A)?
What is Agent Based Simulation (ABS)?
A variable that collects things into a list or similar structure.
What is an aggregator?
The American Standard for Information Interchange stores characters with one byte each.
What is ASCII?
What are parentheses?
img[9][19][0]
What is the red value of the 20th pixel in the 10th row
Unprogrammed behaviors that appear suddenly.
What is emergent behavior?
This might signal that it is time to move on, or maybe someone has just captured it.
What is a one-way flag?
HEX requires 16 characters, starting with 0 and ending with this.
What is F?
Will this concatenate a string or add numbers.
Used when pasting PIL, it determines what is made transparent in the new image?
What is mask?
Both self-similar and infinite in detail.
What is fractal?
This variable checks for improvements before storing the value.
What is best-so-far?
The main purpose is to reduce file size, but sometimes sacrifices fidelity.
What is compression?
For n in a range (10), the fourth time through n will be this.
What is 3?
When true, this creates a shade of gray.
