In Microsoft Excel, these functions are defined using Visual Basic for Applications in the supplied Visual Basic editor, and such functions are automatically accessible on the worksheet. Also, programs can be written that pull information from the worksheet, perform some calculations, and report the results back to the worksheet.
String functions common to many languages are listed below, including the different names used. The below list of common functions aims to help programmers find the equivalent function in a language. Note, string concatenation and regular expressions are handled in separate pages. Statements in guillemets (« … ») are optional.
A group with a length function does not form a filtered group, meaning that the sublevel sets:= {()} do not form subgroups in general. However, the group algebra of a group with a length functions forms a filtered algebra : the axiom L ( g h ) ≤ L ( g ) + L ( h ) {\displaystyle L(gh)\leq L(g)+L(h)} corresponds to the filtration axiom.
The activation function of a node in an artificial neural network is a function that calculates the output of the node based on its individual inputs and their weights. Nontrivial problems can be solved using only a few nodes if the activation function is nonlinear .
Arc length s of a logarithmic spiral as a function of its parameter θ. Arc length is the distance between two points along a section of a curve . Development of a formulation of arc length suitable for applications to mathematics and the sciences is a focus of calculus .
The following C99 function allocates a variable-length array of a specified size, fills it with floating-point values, and then passes it to another function for processing. Because the array is declared as an automatic variable, its lifetime ends when read_and_process() returns.
In computer programming, an anonymous function (function literal, expression or block) is a function definition that is not bound to an identifier. Anonymous functions are often arguments being passed to higher-order functions or used for constructing the result of a higher-order function that needs to return a function. [ 1 ]
