A striped racer, also known as the California whipsnake, is a species of non-venomous snake native to the coast and foothills of California. It is a long, slender, and fast-moving snake, identified by its distinctive stripes running down the length of its body. They primarily feed on lizards and small rodents. The scientific name for this species is Masticophis lateralis.
Petaflops
-
Petaflops is a unit of measurement used for measuring the performance of a processors floating point unit, or FPU. It may also be written petaFLOPS or PFLOPS. Since FLOPS stands for Floating Point Operations Per Second, the term petaflops may be either singular (one petaflops) or plural (two or more petaflops). One petaflops is equal to 1,000 teraflops, or 1,000,000,000,000,000 FLOPS.
Petaflops are rarely used to measure a single computers performance, since only the fastest supercomputers run at more than one petaflops. Therefore, petaflops are more often used when calculating the processing power of multiple computers. Also, since FLOPS only measures floating point calculations, petaflops is not necessarily a good indicator of a computers overall performance. Other factors, such as the processors clock speed, the system bus speed, and the amount of RAM may also affect how quickly a computer can perform calculations.
