Cryogenics scale, both of which measure from absolute zero, rather than more usual scales such as Celsius or Fahrenheit, with their zeroes at arbitrary temperatures. The word "cryogenics" stems from Greek "κρύο (cryo)" – "cold" + "γονική (genic)" – "having to do with production". Cryogenic fluids with their boiling point in Kelvin Liquefied gases, such as liquid nitrogen and liquid helium, are used in many cryogenic applications. Liquid nitrogen is the most commonly used element in cryogenics and is legally purchasable around the world. Liquid helium is also commonly used and allows for the lowest attainable temperatures to be reached. These
Prefix code more likely to be transmitted than others. Truncated binary encoding is a straightforward generalization of fixed-length codes to deal with cases where the number of symbols "n" is not a power of two. Source symbols are assigned codewords of length "k" and "k"+1, where "k" is chosen so that "2 < n ≤ 2". Huffman coding is a more sophisticated technique for constructing variable-length prefix codes. The Huffman coding algorithm takes as input the frequencies that the code words should have, and constructs a prefix code that minimizes the weighted average of the code word lengths.
