  2. Computational complexity of mathematical operations - Wikipedia

    Graphs of functions commonly used in the analysis of algorithms, showing the number of operations versus input size for each function. The following tables list the computational complexity of various algorithms for common mathematical operations.

  3. Polynomial long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_long_division

    Divide the highest term of the remainder by the highest term of the divisor (3x ÷ x = 3). Place the result (+3) below the bar. 3x has been divided leaving no remainder, and can therefore be marked as used. The result 3 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −9. Determine the partial remainder by subtracting −4 − (− ...

  4. Unit in the last place - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place

    Here we start with 0 in single precision (binary32) and repeatedly add 1 until the operation does not change the value. Since the significand for a single-precision number contains 24 bits, the first integer that is not exactly representable is 2 24 +1, and this value rounds to 2 24 in round to nearest, ties to even.

  5. Extended Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Euclidean_algorithm

    The greatest common divisor is the last non zero entry, 2 in the column "remainder". The computation stops at row 6, because the remainder in it is 0. Bézout coefficients appear in the last two entries of the second-to-last row. In fact, it is easy to verify that −9 × 240 + 47 × 46 = 2.

  7. Quadratic residue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_residue

    Modulo 2, every integer is a quadratic residue. Modulo an odd prime number p there are (p + 1)/2 residues (including 0) and (p − 1)/2 nonresidues, by Euler's criterion.In this case, it is customary to consider 0 as a special case and work within the multiplicative group of nonzero elements of the field (/).

  8. Pisano period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisano_period

    If m and n are coprime, then π (mn) is the least common multiple of π (m) and π (n), by the Chinese remainder theorem. For example, π (3) = 8 and π (4) = 6 imply π (12) = 24. Thus the study of Pisano periods may be reduced to that of Pisano periods of prime powers q = p k, for k ≥ 1. If p is prime, π (p k) divides p k–1 π (p).

  9. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    The Taylor series can be used to calculate the value of an entire function at every point, if the value of the function, and of all of its derivatives, are known at a single point. Uses of the Taylor series for analytic functions include: The partial sums (the Taylor polynomials) of the series can be used as approximations of the function ...
