Because a Git commit can have more than 1 parent due to merge commits when you do:

It can even have more than 2, there's no limit. Although that is not so common (with good reason, 2 is already one too many): softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/314215/can-a-git-commit-have-more-than-2-parents/377903#377903

As mentioned by Craig Venter in 100 Greatest Discoveries by the Discovery Channel (2004-2005), the main outcomes of the project were:

Important predecessors:

Like Quantum Processes and Computation course of the University of Oxford, also ZX-calculus-heavy.

Kind of extends the complex numbers.

Some facts that make them stand out:

For super-resolution microscopy.

This could have been a Nobel Prize in Physics as well!

TODO how to calculate

Since DNA is the centerpiece of life, Ciro Santilli is extremely excited about DNA-related technologies, see also: molecular biology technologies.

Since a matrix $M$ can be seen as a linear map $f_M(\vec{x})$, the product of two matrices $MN$ can be seen as the composition of two linear maps:One cool thing about linear functions is that we can easily pre-calculate this product only once to obtain a new matrix, and so we don't have to do both multiplications separately each time.
