A* search algorithm
In
computer science,
A* (pronounced as "A star") is a
computer algorithm that is widely used in
pathfinding and
graph traversal, the process of plotting an efficiently traversable path between multiple points, called nodes. Noted for its
performance and accuracy, it enjoys widespread use. However, in practical travel-routing systems, it is generally outperformed by algorithms which can pre-process the graph to attain better performance, although other work has found A* to be superior to other approaches.

Bell character
A
bell code (sometimes
bell character) is a device
control code originally sent to ring a small electromechanical bell on tickers and other
teleprinters and teletypewriters to alert operators at the other end of the line, often of an incoming message. Though tickers punched the bell codes into their
tapes, printers generally do not print a character when the bell code is received. Bell codes are usually represented by the label "
BEL". They have been used since 1870 (initially in
Baudot code).
Blood type
A
blood type (also called a
blood group) is a classification of
blood based on the presence or absence of
inherited antigenic substances on the surface of
red blood cells (RBCs). These antigens may be
proteins,
carbohydrates,
glycoproteins, or
glycolipids, depending on the blood group system. Some of these antigens are also present on the surface of other types of cells of various
tissues. Several of these red blood cell surface antigens can stem from one
allele (or an alternative version of a gene) and collectively form a blood group system. Blood types are inherited and represent contributions from both parents. A total of 35
human blood group systems are now recognized by the
International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT). The two most important ones are
ABO and the
RhD antigen; they determine someone's blood type (A, B, AB and O, with +, - or Null denoting RhD status).

Drive letter assignment
In computing,
drive letter assignment is the process of assigning alphabetical identifiers to
volumes. Unlike the concept of
UNIX mount points, where volumes are named and located arbitrarily in a single hierarchical namespace, drive letter assignment allows multiple highest-level namespaces. Drive letter assignment is thus a process of using letters to name the roots of the "forest" representing the file system; each volume holds an independent "tree" (or, for non-hierarchical file systems, an independent list of files).
