A blood glucose test measures the amount of a sugar called glucose in a sample of your blood. Glucose is a major source of energy for most cells of the body, including brain cells. Carbohydrates are found in fruit, cereal, bread, pasta, and rice. They are quickly turned into glucose in your body.
A binary variable is the same thing as a â bit â in computer science or a âtruth valueâ in mathematical logic. They are basically different names for the same thing, much like statisticians call a Bell curve a â Normal Distribution â and physicists call it a â Gaussian distribution .â.
The structure of valid strings in a given language, as described by a grammar. For example, the syntax of a binary number could be expressed as. binary_number = bit [ binary_number ] bit = 0 | 1. meaning that a binary number is a bit optionally followed by a binary number and a bit is a literal zero or one digit. The meaning of the language is given by its semantics. See also abstract syntax, concrete syntax.
