Tensor quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Tensor card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
Tensors may map between ______ objects such as vectors, scalars, and even other tensors.
Answer
different. Tensors may map between different objects such as vectors, scalars, and even other tensors. From the Tensor article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
HTTP cookie. HTTP cookie 84 · Tensor 81 · U.S. Route 195 73 · Bower Manuscript 69 ATK in WikiCards.
Which of these Wikipedia articles is read the most in a year?
Answer
HTTP cookie. HTTP cookie 3,300,000 · Tensor 300,000 · Bower Manuscript 6,600 · U.S. Route 195 3,800 Wikipedia reads over a year.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Tensors may map between different objects such as vectors, scalars, and even other tensors.
- There are many types of tensors, including scalars and vectors, dual vectors, multilinear maps between vector spaces, and even some operations such as the dot product.
- Tensors are defined independent of any basis, although they are often referred to by their components in a basis related to a particular coordinate system, those components form an array, which can be thought of as a high-dimensional matrix.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Tensor article was read about 300,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 81 and blocks with 66: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
How to get Tensor
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
