#26. Identify 'X'

‘X’ consists of a rectangular wooden card about 2 by 1 inches (5.1 cm × 2.5 cm), to which a string with several equally spaced knots is attached through a hole in the middle of the card. The ‘X’ is used by placing one end of the string in the teeth while the other end is held away from the body roughly parallel to the ground. The card is then moved along the string, positioned so the lower edge is even with the horizon, and the upper edge is occluding a target star, typically Polaris because its angle to the horizon does not change with longitude or time. The angle can then be measured by counting the number of knots from the teeth to the card, or a particular knot can be tied into the string if traveling to a known latitude. ’x’ is an Arabic navigation tool while ‘x’ in Tamilnadu is a sensation. Identify ‘x’

In India, the "name" is a phenomenon. What is the boat called ?

Those are the cards devised by " SAM PITRODA" and those cards are called as " COMPU CARDS" the joker is replaced by a debug card and if you take a closer look at the programmer card the face cut looks like " SAM PITRODA ".... and one more special feature about these cards is that the numbers are all in powers of 2 ... which depicts the binary concept.......
