File TuxerRinder.JPG thumb 300px Tux Cattle Tux Cattle are a rare cattle breed native to the Alpine region Alpine region of Europe . It is one of the older, endangered cattle breeds. Tux is a village in the Tux Valley in Tyrol state Tyrol in Austria . Characteristics Tux Cattle have black or red fur with white spots on the pelvis, the tail root, the ventral abdomen and on the udder. The head is short and broad with strong horns. The trunk is compact, broad and muscular, the legs relatively short. Bulls average height is 140 cm, weight 800 900 kg. Cows average height is 120 130 cm, weight 550 600 kg. Tux cattle are frugal and were once kept on mountain pastures. Similar to Herens cattle Herens cattle, Tux cattle have a high potential for aggression, resulting in long fights between the cows. In former times they were selected on their fighting ability, which resulted in decreased milk performance. Tux cows produce 1,500 kg milk per year on average. Herens cows that are similarly frugal deliver more than twice that amount. However, the milk fat content of Tux cows is about 8 , while that of Herens cows is about 3.7 . Breeding history Tux cattle are said to stem from the Herens breed. Originally the Tux breed was common in Tyrol and was involved in breeding diverse other alpine breeds. Today it has been displaced by more productive cattle breeds and is only kept in the Zillertal Ziller Valley . ref http aeiou.iicm.tugraz.at aeiou.encyclop.r r669550.htm internal&action setlanguage.action?LANGUAGE en Austria Forum Encyclopedia ref Tux cattle also were used in the development of some Russia n cattle breeds.

Multiple issues unreferenced August 2009 essay like January 2009 Merge to Strong and weak typing date November 2010 type systems In computer science , weak typing a.k.a. loose typing is a property attributed to the type system s of some programming language s. It is the opposite of strong typing , and consequently the term weak typing has a number of different meanings, just as strong typing does. One of the more common definitions states Which date May 2011 that weakly typed programming languages are those that support either implicit type conversion nearly all languages support at least one implicit type conversion , ad hoc polymorphism computer science polymorphism also known as overloading or both. These less restrictive usage rules can give the impression that strict adherence to typing rules is less important than in strongly typed languages and hence that the type system is weaker . However, such languages usually have restrictions on what programmers can do with value computer science values of a given datatype type thus it is possible for a weakly typed language to be Type safety type safe . Moreover, weakly typed languages may be statically typed , in which case overloading is resolved statically and type conversion operations are inserted by the compiler, or dynamically typed, in which case everything is resolved at run time. One claimed advantage of weak typing over strong typing is that it requires less effort on the part of the programmer because the compiler or interpreter implicitly performs certain kinds of conversions. However, one claimed disadvantage is that weakly typed programming systems catch fewer errors at compile time and some of these might still remain after testing has been completed. Sometimes implicit conversion occurs which will surprise unwary programmers and lead to unexpected bugs. For example, in PHP, the strings 1000 and 1e3 compare ... as strings.

For example if variable X is going to store integers then its type must be declared as integer. In contrast, some programming languages use implicit typing a.k.a. type inference where the type is deduced from context or allow for Type system Dynamic typing dynamic typing in which the variable is just declared and may be assigned a value of any type at runtime. Examples Consider the following example written in the C programming language C programming language source lang c include stdio.h int main void char s Test String float x 0.0 int y 0 printf Hello World n return 0 source Note that the variables s , x , and y were declared as a character array, floating point number, and an integer, respectively. The type system rejects, at compile time, such fallacies as trying to add s and x . In contrast, in Standard ML , the types are not explicitly declared. Instead, the type is determined by the type of the assigned expression. let val s Test String val x 0.0 val y 0 in print Hello World n end There are no manifest types in this program, but the compiler still infers the types code string code , code real code and code int code for them, and would reject the expression code s x code as a compile time error.

Tissue typing is a procedure in which the tissues of a prospective donor and recipient are tested for compatibility prior to Organ transplant transplantation . An embryo can be tissue typed to ensure that the embryo implanted can be a cord blood stem cell donor for a sick sibling. ref Designing Donors . Shaun D. Pattinson, Faculty of Law and Sheffield Institute of Biotechnological Law and Ethics, University of Sheffield. http www.ccels.cf.ac.uk literature issue 2003 pattinson.pdf link ref One technique of tissue typing, mixed leukocyte reaction , is performed by culturing lymphocytes from the donor together with those from the recipient. ref http pathmicro.med.sc.edu ghaffar mhc2000.htm MHC Bot generated title ref Another technique, known as a micro cytotoxicity assay, utilizes serum with known anti HLA antibodies that recognize particular human leukocyte antigen HLA loci HLA A, HLA B, HLA C, HLA DP, HLA DQ, HLA DR in order to match genetically similar individuals in hopes of performing a tissue transplantation. In this technique a donor s blood cells are major histocompatibility complex MHC typed by mixing them with Blood serum serum containing the anti HLA antibodies . If the antibodies recognize their epitope on the MHC then classical complement pathway complement activation occurs and the cell will be osmotically lysis lysed . Lysis results in the cell taking up a dye trypan blue . This allows identification of cell s MHC indirectly based on the specificity of the known antibodies in the serum.
