2. Decade (log scale) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decade_(log_scale)

   Decade (log scale) Four powers of 10 spanning a range of three decades: 1, 10, 100, 1000 (10 0, 10 1, 10 2, 10 3) Four grids spanning three decades of resolution: One thousand 0.001s, one-hundred 0.01s, ten 0.1s, one 1. One decade (symbol dec[1]) is a unit for measuring ratios on a logarithmic scale, with one decade corresponding to a ratio of ...

3. Logarithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

   For example, since 1000 = 10 3, the logarithm base of 1000 is 3, or log 10 (1000) = 3. The logarithm of x to base b is denoted as log b (x), or without parentheses, log b x. When the base is clear from the context or is irrelevant it is sometimes written log x. The logarithm base 10 is called the decimal or common logarithm and is commonly used ...

5. Doubling time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubling_time

   The doubling time is the time it takes for a population to double in size/value. It is applied to population growth, inflation, resource extraction, consumption of goods, compound interest, the volume of malignant tumours, and many other things that tend to grow over time. When the relative growth rate (not the absolute growth rate) is constant ...

6. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

   The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication algorithm. It was discovered by Anatoly Karatsuba in 1960 and published in 1962. [1][2][3] It is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that reduces the multiplication of two n -digit numbers to three multiplications of n /2-digit numbers and, by repeating this reduction, to at most single-digit ...

7. List of logarithmic identities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logarithmic_identities

   ln (r) is the standard natural logarithm of the real number r. Arg (z) is the principal value of the arg function; its value is restricted to (−π, π]. It can be computed using Arg (x + iy) = atan2 (y, x). Log (z) is the principal value of the complex logarithm function and has imaginary part in the range (−π, π].

8. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

   In computer science, a scale factor is a number used as a multiplier to represent a number on a different scale, functioning similarly to an exponent in mathematics. A scale factor is used when a real-world set of numbers needs to be represented on a different scale in order to fit a specific number format. Although using a scale factor extends ...

9. Order of magnitude - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_magnitude

   [contradictory] For example, the number 4 000 000 has a logarithm (in base 10) of 6.602; its order of magnitude is 6. When truncating, a number of this order of magnitude is between 10 6 and 10 7. In a similar example, with the phrase "seven-figure income", the order of magnitude is the number of figures minus one, so it is very easily ...
