*The range of a vehicle is the maximum distance it can cover without needing to be re fueled or re charged.
The range of a gun or missile is the maximum distance it can be fired over and still hit its target. The actual distance that the missile can travel will sometimes be greater than its range, but in these cases accuracy is not guaranteed if the target is out of range. See ballistic missile for four types defined in terms of range.
The range of a function is the set of all output values of the function. This is distinct from the codomain of the function, which is the set of all possible output values of the function.
The numerical range , or field of value, of a real or complex matrixA is the set: {x*Ax : x is a unit vector}.
In telecommunications range is the maximum distance by which communication is still possible, i.e. any degradation of signal quality is still at an acceptable level. Some short-range standards are bluetoothThis article is about the Bluetooth wireless specification. For King Harold Bluetooth, see Harold I of Denmark Bluetooth is an industrial specification for wireless personal area networks (PANs) first developed by Ericsson, later formalized by the Bluetoo and IrDA.
In computer programming it describes the maximum and minimum values that can be stored in a variableIn computer science and mathematics, a variable is a symbol denoting a quantity or symbolic representation. In mathematics, a variable often represents an unknown quantity; in computer science, it represents a place where a quantity can be stored. Variabl, or the maximum number of values that can be stored in an arrayIn computer programming, an array also known as a vector or list, is one of the simplest data structures. Arrays hold a fixed number of equally-sized data elements, generally of the same data type. Individual elements are accessed by index using a consecu. For example the range of an integerIn computer science, the term integer is used to refer to any data type which can represent some subset of the mathematical integers. These are also known as integral data types . Value and Representation The value of a datum with an integral type is the variable might be any whole number from -32,768 to +32,767.
In biologyBiology studies the variety of life clockwise from top-left E. coli tree fern, gazelle, Goliath beetle Biology is the science of life. It is concerned with the characteristics and behaviors of organisms, how species and individuals come into existence, an the range of an organism is the geographical area within which that speciesThis article discusses biological species. Also see combinatorial species for the mathematical meaning of the term. Species is also a movie by Roger Donaldson. In English "species" is both singular and plural. The word " specie" is unrelated and is used t, subspecies etc. can be found. Sometimes a distinction is made between natural range and the places to which the species has been introduced by more or less deliberate human agency.
In American English, a range or stove is a type of major appliance, consisting of several (usually four) gas burners or electric heating elements. It is typically seen on top of an oven. In British English this is called a hob or cooker, and the word range is reserved for an exceptionally large oven and hob combination (typically with six or more heating elements and more than one oven).
In agriculture, a range is arid land where cattle are permitted to roam and feed on whatever vegetation might be present.
In music, the range of a musical instrument is the distance from the lowest to the highest pitch it can play whilst the range of a musical part is the distance between its lowest and highest note. The duration range is the difference between the shortest and longest rhythm used. Dynamic range is the difference between the quietest and loudest volume of an instrument, part or piece of music. See also vocal range.
