    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_(colour)

    Orange is the colour between yellow and red on the spectrum of visible light. The human eyes perceive orange when observing light with a dominant wavelength between roughly 585 and 620 nanometres. In traditional colour theory, it is a secondary colour of pigments, produced by mixing yellow and red. In the RGB colour model, it is a tertiary ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes'_theorem

    Bayes' theorem is named after the Reverend Thomas Bayes ( / beɪz / ), also a statistician and philosopher. Bayes used conditional probability to provide an algorithm (his Proposition 9) that uses evidence to calculate limits on an unknown parameter.

  4. Body mass index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_mass_index

    t. e. Body mass index ( BMI) is a value derived from the mass ( weight) and height of a person. The BMI is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, and is expressed in units of kg/m 2, resulting from mass in kilograms (kg) and height in metres (m). The BMI may be determined first by measuring its components by means of ...
