  3. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Although Excel allows display of up to 30 decimal places, its precision for any specific number is no more than 15 significant figures, and calculations may have an accuracy that is even less due to five issues: round off, [a] truncation, and binary storage, accumulation of the deviations of the operands in calculations, and worst: cancellation ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime-counting_function

    The values of π(n) for the first 60 positive integers. In mathematics, the prime-counting function is the function counting the number of prime numbers less than or equal to some real number x. [1] [2] It is denoted by π(x) (unrelated to the number π).

    However, in Microsoft Excel, subroutines can write values or text found within the subroutine directly to the spreadsheet. The figure shows the Visual Basic code for a subroutine that reads each member of the named column variable x , calculates its square, and writes this value into the corresponding element of named column variable y .

  6. Percentile rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile_rank

    The figure illustrates the percentile rank computation and shows how the 0.5 × F term in the formula ensures that the percentile rank reflects a percentage of scores less than the specified score. For example, for the 10 scores shown in the figure, 60% of them are below a score of 4 (five less than 4 and half of the two equal to 4) and 95% are ...

  7. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    The percent value is computed by multiplying the numeric value of the ratio by 100. For example, to find 50 apples as a percentage of 1,250 apples, one first computes the ratio ⁠ 50 / 1250 ⁠ = 0.04, and then multiplies by 100 to obtain 4%. The percent value can also be found by multiplying first instead of later, so in this example, the 50 ...

  8. Percentile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile

    One definition of percentile, often given in texts, is that the P-th percentile (<) of a list of N ordered values (sorted from least to greatest) is the smallest value in the list such that no more than P percent of the data is strictly less than the value and at least P percent of the data is less than or equal to that value. This is obtained ...

  9. Number - Wikipedia

    If the absolute value of m is greater than n (supposed to be positive), then the absolute value of the fraction is greater than 1. Fractions can be greater than, less than, or equal to 1 and can also be positive, negative, or 0. The set of all rational numbers includes the integers since every integer can be written as a fraction with ...
