Flip-Flop is a program designed to make the use of multiple monitors on a Mac OS X system easier, and more enjoyable. It aims to help with movement, resizing, ordering, and quick repositioning of windows through verious means.
a term used to signify a hiker that starts hiking in one direction then at some point, decides to “ jump’ ahead and hike back in the opposite direction. Some hikers on the A.T. will start hiking northbound from Springer Mountain, Georgia and usually at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, they may decide to “ jump’ ahead to Katahdin, Maine and hike back south Flip –Flop to Harpers Ferry, thus completing their thru-hike. This is a good way for someone to still get their hike completed if they are behind and their time is limited due to the oncoming winter. Baxter Park in Maine (Katahdin) is closed for the winter on October 15th.
(circuit) A basic digital building block that, at its simplest, uses two gates cross-coupled so that the output of one gate serves as the input of the other. It is capable of changing from one state to another on application of a control signal, but can remain in that state after the signal is removed. It thus serves as a basic storage element. Most flip-flops contain additional features to make them more versatile. Many digital circuits, such as registers and counters, are a number of flip-flops connected together.
Flip-flop, which used to mean "waffle," was transformed into a synonym [derived from flip flops, a favorite footwear of idlers] for "procrastinate" - by the spouse of the author of this glossary. See: BOOTLESS, PROCRASTINATE, SLIPSHOD.
an electronic switching circuit changed from one stable state to another, or through an unstable state back to its stable state, by a triggering pulse gif stands for graphical interchange format; a type of format for saving image files hexadecimal code numerical notation in base 16 that is used for coding color in html
Also known as "flip-flop circuit." It is an electronic circuit which have two stable conditions, each one corresponds to one of two alternative input signals.
A term used to describe a terminal or logical which operates in half-plex, flip-flop mode, sending and receiving data in an alternating manner, but not both at the same time (full duplex).
A type of sandal, usually a thong, with a lightweight foam outsole that makes a “flip-flop” sound when you walk.
general term for a bistable, astable or monostable circuit
A bi-stable device; a device capable of assuming two stable states; a bi-stable device which may assume a given stable state depending upon the pulse history of one or more input points and having one or more output points. The device is capable of storing a bit of information; a control device for opening or closing gates; a toggle.
a backless sandal held to the foot by a thong between the big toe and the second toe
an electronic circuit that can assume either of two stable states
a basic circuit used to store binary data
a digital circuit that retains its output state, even after its inputs have been removed
a latch circuit with a "pulse detector" circuit connected to the enable (E) input, so that it is enabled only for a brief moment on either the rising or falling edge of a clock pulse
a nearly fundamental part of digital circuits
an electrical circuit composed of transistors and resistors
a simple two-state logic buffer activated by a clock and fed by a single input working in combination with the clock
a very fundamental logic unit and has many uses
A flat, backless rubber sandal, usually secured on the foot by a thong between the first two toes, as for use at a beach, swimming pool, or casual wear and play. Also called a thong and zori.
A simple element of memory made up of an assembly of logic gates. Based on inputs, the state of a flip-flop can be changed back and forth, affecting the...
A digital logic circuit that can be in one of two states, which it switches between each time a "toggle" signal is sent to it.
Single-bit storage cell that samples its data input at the active (rising or falling ) clock edge, and then presents the new state on its Q output after that clock edge, holding it there until after the next active clock edge.
one of the most common circuit in a digital computer that maintains a value of 1 or 0 units a trigger directs it to change. It is thus a unit capable of storing a bit.
Another name for the Bistable Multivibrator. Memory device capable of storing a logic level.
A device having two stable states and two input terminals (or types of input signals), each of which corresponds with one of the two states. The circuit remains in either state until caused to change to the other state by application of a voltage pulse. A similar bistable device with an input that allows it to act as a single-stage binary counter.

In footwear and fashion, flip-flops are a kind of flat, backless sandal that consist of a flat sole held on the foot by a u-shaped strap that passes between the first (big) and second toes and around either side of the foot, attached to the sole at three points, commonly known as the thong strap. They appear to have been developed out of traditional Japanese woven or wooden soled sandals (i.e., zori and setta) in New Zealand.
A "flip-flop" (used mostly in the United States) or a U-turn (used in the United Kingdom) is a sudden real or apparent change of policy or opinion. Usually it will occur during the period prior to an election in order to maximize the candidate's popularity.
Flip-Flop is the fourth and final album by Marietta, Georgia jangle poppers Guadalcanal Diary. It was released in 1989 on Elektra Records.
