 # 3D Model
 
-In the world of [computers](computer.md) (especially in [computer graphics](graphics.md), but also in physics simulations, 3D printing etc.) 3D model is a representation of a [three dimensional](3d.md) object, for example of a [real life](irl.md) object such as a car, [tree](tree.md) or a [dog](dog.md), but also possibly something more abstract like a [fractal](fractal.md) or [function](function.md) plot surface. 3D models can be displayed using various [3D rendering](3d_rendering.md) techniques and are used mostly to simulate [real world](real_world.md) on computers (e.g. [games](game.md)), as real world is, as we know, three dimensional. 3D models can be created in several ways, e.g. manually with 3D modeling software (such as [Blender](blender.md)) by 3D [artists](art.md), by 3D scanning real world objects, or automatically by [procedural generation](procgen.md).

 There is a plethora of different 3D model types, the topic is very large when viewed in its whole scope because 3D models can be used and represented in many ways (and everything is yet more complex by dealing with different methods of 3D rendering) -- the **mainstream "game" 3D models** that most people are used to seeing are polygonal (basically made of triangles) boundary-representation (recording only surface, not volume) [textured](texture.md) (with "pictures" on their surface) 3D models, but be aware that many different ways of representation are possible and in common use by the industry, for example various volume representations, [voxel](voxel.md) models, [point clouds](point_cloud.md), [implicit surfaces](implicit_surface.md), [spline](spline.md) surfaces, [constructive solid geometry](csg.md), [wireframe](wireframe.md) etc. Models may also bear additional extra information and features, e.g. material, bone rigs for animation, animation key frames, density information, [LODs](lod.md), even [scripts](scripting.md) and so on.
 
-**3D formats**: situation here is not as simple as it is with images or audio, but there are a few formats that in practice will suffice for most of your models. Firstly the most [KISS](kiss.md) one is (Wavefront) **obj** -- this is supported by almost every 3D software, it's a text format that's easy to parse and it's even human readable and editable; obj supports most things you will ever need like UV maps and normals, and you can [hack](hack.md) it even for a primitive keyframe animation. So if you can, use obj as your first choice. If you need something a little more advanced, use **COLLADA** (.dae extension) -- this is a bit more [bloated](bloat.md) than obj as it's an [XML](xml.md), but it's still human readable and has more features, for example skeletal animation, instancing, model hierarchy and so on. Another noteworthy format is e.g. [stl](stl.md) used a lot in 3D printing. For other than polygonal models you may have to search a bit or just represent your model in some sane way, for example heightmap is naturally saved as a grayscale image, voxel model may be saved in some dead simple text format and so on. Also be always sure to **distribute your model in universal format**, i.e. don't just share Blender's project file or anything like that, that's like sharing pictures in Photoshop format or sending someone a Word document, only retards do that -- yes, you should also share the project file if possible, but it's more important to release the model in a widely supported, [future proof](future_proof.md) and non discriminating format.

 105. { I hope this is right :D ~drummyfish } First imagine the graph of a polar coordinate function that says the radius of a plain circle with radius *r* depending on angle: the graph is just constant function (horizontal line) with value *r* going from 0 to *2 * pi*. Integrating this function (from 0 to 2 * pi, here we simply multiply *r* by *2 * pi* as the graph is a rectangle) will give us the formula for the circumference of circle: *2 * pi * r* -- we'll take this largely on intuition but it can be seen that this holds because we're adding constant tiny increments of length from 0 to what we know is the circle circumference (2 * pi * r). Now imagine similar function, just starting at *r1* and linearly increasing to *r2*, i.e. we just have a linear function saying the spiral radius for current angle. Again, we'll integrate this, this time getting (bottom rectangle plus upper right triangle): *2 * pi * r1 + 2 * pi * (r2 - r1) / 2*. Simplifying this we get *pi * (r1 + r2)*, which is hopefully the solution (we see this will be between the circumferences of the smaller and larger circles, also for *r1 = r2* we again get the circumference of plain circle etc.).

Haven't thought about it deeper yet though. If you know the answer let me know.

+109. This is counting graph [automorphisms](automorphism.md). Let's say we assign alien *X* to house 1; we can count how many possible allowed configurations there are for this case and then multiply it all by 8 (for case when *X* would be assigned to house 2, then 3, 4 etc.). Let's say neighbors of *X* are *U*, *V* and *W*. There are 3 edges going from house 1, i.e. 3 possible ways for the first neighbor, *U*, to be placed -- again, consider we put *U* in one place; we'll count the possibilities and eventually multiply them by 3. Now we have 2 edges (2 neighbor houses) remaining and 2 neighbors (*V* and *W*) to put there; again, consider one case and then multiply that by 2. Now we have *X* and all his neighbors in place, how many possible configurations are left here? There is one house that's the neighbor of both *U* and *V* and there is only one possibility of who can live there: the shared neighbor of *U* and *V* -- there is just one option so this house's inhabitant is determined. Same for *V*/*W* and *U*/*W*. That's already 7 houses assigned and the one last remaining has to be in the one house left, so in fact by placing *X* and its neighbors we've uniquely determined the rest of the houses, there's just one way. So in the end we have 8 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 48 possible ways.

This also applies to using [constants](constant.md) (faster/smaller) vs [variables](variable.md), static vs dynamic [typing](typing.md), normal vs dynamic [arrays](array.md) etc.
 - **Be smart, use [math](math.md)**, for example simplify [expressions](expression.md) using known formulas, minimize [logic circuits](logic_circuit.md) etc. Example: let's say you want to compute the radius of a zero-centered [bounding sphere](bounding_sphere.md) of an *N*-point [point cloud](point_cloud.md). Naively you might be computing the Euclidean distance (*sqrt(x^2 + y^2 + z^2)*) to each point and taking a maximum of them, however you can just find the maximum of squared distances (*x^2 + y^2 + z^2*) and return a square root of that maximum. This saves you a computation of *N - 1* square roots.
 - **Fancier algorithms will very often be slower than simpler ones, even if they are theoretically faster**, i.e. don't get too smart and first try the simple algorithm, greater complexity has to be justified.

 - **Avoid branches (ifs)** if you can (remember [ternary operators](ternary_operator.md), loop conditions etc. are branches as well). They break prediction in CPU pipelines and instruction preloading and are often source of great performance losses. Don't forget that you can many times compare and use the result of operations without using any branching (e.g. `x = (y == 5) + 1;` instead of `x = (y == 5) ? 2 : 1;`).

Nice examples can also be found in [computer graphics](graphics.md), e.g. some [software renderers](sw_rendering.md) use perspective-correct texturing only for large near triangles and cheaper affine texturing for other triangles, which mostly looks OK.  
 - **Use quick [bailout](bailout.md) conditions**: many times before performing some expensive calculation you can quickly check whether it's even worth performing it and potentially skip it. For example in physics [collision detections](collision_detection.md) you may first quickly check whether the bounding spheres of the bodies collide before running an expensive precise collision detection -- if bounding spheres of objects don't collide, it is not possible for the bodies to collide and so we can skip further collision detection.

If we need to sort just a few hundred of items and/or the sorting doesn't occur very often, a simple algorithm does the job well, sometimes even faster due to a potential initial overhead of a very complex algorithm. So always consider the [KISS](kiss.md) approach first.

 - **[recursion](recursion.md) and [parallelism](parallel.md)**: Some algorithms are recursive in nature, some are not. Some algorithms can be parallelised e.g. with a [GPU](gpu.md) which will greatly increase their speed.
 - **other**: There may be other specific, e.g. some algorithms are are slow if sorting an already sorted sequence (which is addressed by *adaptive* sorting), so we may have to also consider the nature of data we'll be sorting. Other times we may be interested e.g. in what machine instructions the algorithm will compile to etc.
 
-In practice not only the algorithm but also its implementation matters. For example if we have a sequence of very large data structures to sort, we may want to avoid physically rearranging these structures in memory, this could be slow. In such case we may want to use **indirect sorting**: we create an additional list whose elements are indices to the main sequence, and we only sort this list of indices.

 *Good luck trying to understand the corresponding [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) article.*
 
-Wavelet transform is a [mathematical](math.md) operation, similar to e.g. [Fourier transform](fourier_transform.md), that takes a [signal](signal_processing.md) (e.g. audio or an image) and outputs information about the [frequencies](frequency.md) contained in that signal AS WELL as the locations of those frequencies. This is of course extremely useful when we want to analyze and manipulate frequencies in our signal -- for example [JPEG 2000](jpeg_2000.md) uses wavelet transforms for [compressing](compression.md) images by discarding certain frequencies in them that our eyes are not so sensitive to.
+Wavelet transform is a [mathematical](math.md) operation, similar to e.g. [Fourier transform](fourier_transform.md), that takes a [signal](signal_processing.md) (let's say audio or an image) and outputs information about the [frequencies](frequency.md) contained in that signal AS WELL as the locations of those frequencies. This is of course very handy should we want to analyze and manipulate frequencies in the signal -- for example [JPEG 2000](jpeg_2000.md) exploits wavelet transforms for [compressing](compression.md) images by discarding certain frequencies in them that our eyes are not so sensitive to.
 
 The main advantage over [Fourier transform](fourier_transform.md) (and similar transforms such as [cosine transform](cosine_transform.md)) is that wavelet transform shows us not only the frequencies, but ALSO their locations (i.e. for example time at which these frequencies come into play in an audio signal). This allows us for example to locate specific sounds in audio or apply compression only to certain parts of an image. While localizing frequencies is also possible with Fourier transform with tricks such as [spectrograms](spectrogram.md), wavelet transforms are a more elegant, natural and continuous way of doing so. Note that due to [Heisenberg's uncertainty principle](uncertainty_principle.md) it is mathematically IMPOSSIBLE to know both frequencies and their locations exactly, there always has to be a tradeoff -- the input signal itself tells us everything about location but nothing about frequencies, Fourier transform tells us everything about frequencies but nothing about their locations and wavelet transform is a **midway** between the two -- it tells us something about frequencies and their approximate locations.

 Wikidata is a large collaborative project (a sister project of [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md), hosted by Wikimedia Foundation) for creating a huge noncommercial [public domain](public_domain.md) [database](database.md) containing information basically about everything. Well, not literally everything -- there are some rules about what can be included that are similar to those on [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md), e.g. notability (you can't add yourself unless you're notable enough, of course you can't add illegal data etc.). Wikidata records data in a form of so called [knowledge graph](knowledge_graph.md), i.e. it connects items and their properties with statements such as "Earth:location:inner Solar System", creating a mathematical structure called a [graph](graph.md). The whole database is available to anyone for any purpose without any conditions, under [CC0](cc0.md)!
 
-Wikidata is wildly useful and greatly overlooked in the shadow of Wikipedia even though it offers a way to easily obtain large, absolutely [free](free_culture.md) and public domain data sets about anything. The database can be queried with specialized languages so one can e.g. get coordinates of all terrorist attacks that happened in certain time period, a list of famous male cats, visualize the tree of biological species, list Jews who run restaurants in Asia or any other crazy thing. Wikidata oftentimes contains extra information that's not present in the Wikipedia article about the item and that's not even quickly found by [googling](google.md), and the information is sometimes also backed by sources just like on Wikipedia, so it's nice to always check Wikidata when researching anything.

 Wikidata was opened on 30 October 2012. The first data that were stored were links between different language versions of Wikipedia articles, later Wikipedia started to use Wikidata to store information to display in infoboxes in articles and so Wikidata grew and eventually became a database of its own. As of 2022 there is a little over 100 million items, over 1 billion statements and over 20000 active users.
