APIs for linking it on an external program such as a database, or using in a programming language to use the computer algebra system; string manipulation such as matching and searching; add-ons for use in applied mathematics such as physics, bioinformatics, computational chemistry and packages for physical computation [7]
In number theory, the radical of a positive integer n is defined as the product of the distinct prime numbers dividing n. Each prime factor of n occurs exactly once as a factor of this product: r a d ( n ) = ∏ p ∣ n p prime p {\displaystyle \displaystyle \mathrm {rad} (n)=\prod _{\scriptstyle p\mid n \atop p{\text{ prime}}}p}
Programming languages that support arbitrary precision computations, either built-in, or in the standard library of the language: Ada: the upcoming Ada 202x revision adds the Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Integers and Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Reals packages to the standard library, providing arbitrary precision integers and real numbers.
The simplest example given by Thimbleby of a possible problem when using an immediate-execution calculator is 4 × (−5). As a written formula the value of this is −20 because the minus sign is intended to indicate a negative number, rather than a subtraction, and this is the way that it would be interpreted by a formula calculator.
GLib provides advanced data structures, such as memory chunks, doubly and singly linked lists, hash tables, dynamic strings and string utilities, such as a lexical scanner, string chunks (groups of strings), dynamic arrays, balanced binary trees, N-ary trees, quarks (a two-way association of a string and a unique integer identifier), keyed data lists, relations, and tuples.
In 1984, Borland launched Sidekick, a time organization, notebook, and calculator utility that was an early terminate-and-stay-resident program (TSR) for MS-DOS compatible operating systems. [7] By the mid-1980s, the company had an exhibit at the 1985 West Coast Computer Faire along with IBM and AT&T. [8]
RPL originated from HP's Corvallis, Oregon development facility in 1984 as a replacement for the previous practice of implementing the operating systems of calculators in assembly language. [7] The first calculator utilizing it internally was the HP-18C and the first calculator making it available to users was the HP-28C, both from 1986.
From the multiplication tables, the square root of the mantissa must be 8 point something because a is between 8×8 = 64 and 9×9 = 81, so k is 8; something is the decimal representation of R. The fraction R is 75 − k 2 = 11, the numerator, and 81 − k 2 = 17, the denominator. 11/17 is a little less than 12/18 = 2/3 = .67, so guess .66 (it's ...
