Python/Basic functions

63.3.21.130:

A function is a way of tying a bunch of code together so that it can be used at a later time. To create a function, it must be defined with the def command.

>>>def example():
print 'I am a seemingly self aware function!'

This assigns the name 'example' in the same way that the statement 'x = 1' assigns the name x to the value 1.
Merely typing the name of the function will show you such.

>>>example
<function example at 0x01680730>

To actually call the function, you have to include parenthesis afterwards.

>>> example()
I am a seemingly self aware function!

The reason for the parenthesis is so that you can pass arguments to functions that require them.

>>> def square(x):
print str(x**2)
>>> square(4)
16

If we wanted to use the value that the square function gives us, we would rewrite it make use of the return command.

>>> def square(x):
return (x**2)

Which can then be used to do such fun things as:

>>> print square(3)
9

or

>>>print square(square(3))
81

or even in statements such as:

>>>10 + square(2)
14

and

>>> y = square(10)
>>> y
100

Hypercane

2007-05-16T00:30:02Z

63.3.18.1: /* Physical description */

A '''hypercane''' is a theoretical class of [[tropical cyclone]] that could form if ocean temperatures reached around 50° [[Celsius]] (122° [[Fahrenheit]])—15° higher than the warmest ocean temperature ever recorded.<ref>[http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/Water/temp.html&edu=high Temperature of Ocean Water, Windows to the Universe]</ref>—which could in turn be caused by a large [[asteroid]] or [[comet]] impact, a large [[volcano|volcanic]] or [[supervolcano|supervolcanic]] eruption, or very extensive [[global warming]].<ref>[http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=30308 The Dawn of the Hypercane?]</ref> There is some speculation that some [[dinosaur]]s might have been killed off by a series of hypercanes, resulting from an asteroid or comet crashing into [[Earth]].<ref>[http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg14519632.600-did-storms-land-the-dinosaurs-in-hot-water.html Did storms land the dinosaurs in hot water?]</ref> The term was originally coined by atmospheric scientist [[Kerry Emanuel]] in [[1996]], at [[MIT]].<ref name="MIT">[http://wind.mit.edu/~emanuel/holem/holem.html Limits on Hurricane Intensity]</ref>

===Physical description===
Hypercanes would have wind speeds of over 500 miles per hour,130 [[m/s]], and would also have a central pressure of less than 700 [[hectopascal]]s, giving them an enormous lifespan. This storm would have been produced by the super heated ocean waters in the asteroid's impact or volcano eruption zone, creating conditions for a storm that would have been the size of North America, with a storm surge of 60+ feet and an eye nearly 200 miles accross. The waters would remain hot enough for weeks, allowing more hypercanes to be formed. A Hypercane's clouds would reach 20 miles into the Stratophere. <ref name="MIT"> <ref name="What You Need To Know about Hurricanes"-Discovery Channel>[http://wind.mit.edu/~emanuel/holem/holem.html Limits on Hurricane Intensity]</ref>

===Hypercanes in fiction===
The [[anime]] ''[[Tactical Roar]]'' uses a fictional hypercane in the [[Pacific Ocean]] as a pretext to showcase naval battles, which are the series' focus.
