Binary scaling angles are added using normal two's complement mathematics, the rotation of the angles is correct, even when crossing the sign boundary (this of course does away with checks for angle ≥ 360° when handling normal degrees). The terms binary angular measurement (BAM) and binary angular measurement system (BAMS) as well as brads (binary radians or binary degree) refer to implementations of binary angles. They find use in robotics, navigation, computer games, and digital sensors. No matter what bit-pattern is stored in a binary angle, when it is multiplied by 180° (or π) using standard signed fixed-point arithmetic, the result is
Degrees of freedom (statistics) the vectors of residuals are constrained to lie in a space of smaller dimension than the number of components in the vector. That smaller dimension is the number of degrees of freedom for error, also called residual degrees of freedom. Perhaps the simplest example is this. Suppose are random variables each with expected value μ, and let be the "sample mean." Then the quantities are residuals that may be considered estimates of the errors "X" − μ. The sum of the residuals (unlike the sum of the errors) is necessarily 0. If one knows the values of any "n" −
