  2. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    This can be seen in the following tables, the left of which shows Newton's method applied to the above f(x) = x + x 4/3 and the right of which shows Newton's method applied to f(x) = x + x 2. The quadratic convergence in iteration shown on the right is illustrated by the orders of magnitude in the distance from the iterate to the true root (0,1 ...

  3. Newton polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_polynomial

    [4] Gauss's formula alternately adds new points at the left and right ends, thereby keeping the set of points centered near the same place (near the evaluated point). When so doing, it uses terms from Newton's formula, with data points and x values renamed in keeping with one's choice of what data point is designated as the x 0 data point.

  4. 1 − 2 + 3 − 4 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    The idea becomes clearer by considering the general series 1 − 2x + 3x 2 − 4x 3 + 5x 4 − 6x 5 + &c. that arises while expanding the expression 1 ⁄ (1+x) 2, which this series is indeed equal to after we set x = 1. [12]

    Thus, 6.25 = 110.01 in binary, normalised to 1.1001 × 2 2 an even power so the paired bits of the mantissa are 01, while .625 = 0.101 in binary normalises to 1.01 × 21 an odd power so the adjustment is to 10.1 × 22 and the paired bits are 10. Notice that the low order bit of the power is echoed in the high order bit of the pairwise ...

  6. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    Because (a + 1) 2 = a, a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x 2 + a = 0. On the other hand, the polynomial x 2 + ax + 1 is irreducible over F 4, but it splits over F 16, where it has the two roots ab and ab + a, where b is a root of x 2 + x + a in F 16. This is a special case of Artin–Schreier theory.

  7. Rate pressure product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_pressure_product

    The calculation formula is: Rate Pressure Product (RPP) = Heart Rate (HR) * Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) The units for the Heart Rate are beats per minute and for the Blood Pressure mmHg . Rate pressure product is a measure of the stress put on the cardiac muscle based on the number of times it needs to beat per minute (HR) and the arterial ...

  8. Divided power structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divided_power_structure

    A divided power structure (or PD-structure, after the French puissances divisées) on I is a collection of maps : for n = 0, 1, 2, ... such that: γ 0 ( x ) = 1 {\displaystyle \gamma _{0}(x)=1} and γ 1 ( x ) = x {\displaystyle \gamma _{1}(x)=x} for x ∈ I {\displaystyle x\in I} , while γ n ( x ) ∈ I {\displaystyle \gamma _{n}(x)\in I} for ...

  9. Dividing a circle into areas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_a_circle_into_areas

    The number of points (n), chords (c) and regions (r G) for first 6 terms of Moser's circle problem. In geometry, the problem of dividing a circle into areas by means of an inscribed polygon with n sides in such a way as to maximise the number of areas created by the edges and diagonals, sometimes called Moser's circle problem (named after Leo Moser), has a solution by an inductive method.
