2. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9. When exponents were introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries, they were given precedence over both addition and multiplication and placed as a superscript to the right of ...

3. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

   The binary number system expresses any number as a sum of powers of 2, and denotes it as a sequence of 0 and 1, separated by a binary point, where 1 indicates a power of 2 that appears in the sum; the exponent is determined by the place of this 1: the nonnegative exponents are the rank of the 1 on the left of the point (starting from 0), and ...

4. Power rule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rule

   Solving for , = = = = = Thus, the power rule applies for rational exponents of the form /, where is a nonzero natural number. This can be generalized to rational exponents of the form p / q {\displaystyle p/q} by applying the power rule for integer exponents using the chain rule, as shown in the next step.

5. Tetration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

   In 2017, it was proven [14] that there exists a unique function F which is a solution of the equation F(z + 1) = exp(F(z)) and satisfies the additional conditions that F(0) = 1 and F(z) approaches the fixed points of the logarithm (roughly 0.318 ± 1.337i) as z approaches ±i∞ and that F is holomorphic in the whole complex z-plane, except the ...

6. Power of 10 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_10

   Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. In mathematics, a power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer).

7. Engineering notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_notation

   Engineering notation or engineering form (also technical notation) is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent of ten is always selected to be divisible by three to match the common metric prefixes, i.e. scientific notation that aligns with powers of a thousand, for example, 531×10 3 instead of 5.31×10 5 (but on calculator displays written without the ×10 to save space).

8. Legendre's formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre's_formula

   Since ! is the product of the integers 1 through n, we obtain at least one factor of p in ! for each multiple of p in {,, …,}, of which there are ⌊ ⌋. Each multiple of p 2 {\displaystyle p^{2}} contributes an additional factor of p , each multiple of p 3 {\displaystyle p^{3}} contributes yet another factor of p , etc. Adding up the number ...

9. Round-off error - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

   In computing, a roundoff error, [1] also called rounding error, [2] is the difference between the result produced by a given algorithm using exact arithmetic and the result produced by the same algorithm using finite-precision, rounded arithmetic. [3]
