  2. Summation by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_by_parts

    In mathematics, summation by parts transforms the summation of products of sequences into other summations, often simplifying the computation or (especially) estimation of certain types of sums. It is also called Abel's lemma or Abel transformation , named after Niels Henrik Abel who introduced it in 1826.

  3. Running total - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_total

    Answer: 5 + 8 + 3 + 2 + 6 = 24. This is arrived at by simple summation of the sequence. This is arrived at by simple summation of the sequence. But if we regarded 18 as the running total, we need only add 6 to 18 to get 24.

  4. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

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

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  5. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The algorithm performs summation with two accumulators: sum holds the sum, and c accumulates the parts not assimilated into sum, to nudge the low-order part of sum the next time around. Thus the summation proceeds with "guard digits" in c , which is better than not having any, but is not as good as performing the calculations with double the ...

  6. Telescoping series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescoping_series

    A telescoping product is a finite product (or the partial product of an infinite product) that can be canceled by the method of quotients to be eventually only a finite number of factors. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] It is the finite products in which consecutive terms cancel denominator with numerator, leaving only the initial and final terms.

  7. Abel's summation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel's_summation_formula

    Fix a complex number .If = for and () =, then () = ⌊ ⌋ and the formula becomes = ⌊ ⌋ = ⌊ ⌋ + ⌊ ⌋ +. If () >, then the limit as exists and yields the ...

  8. Cesàro summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cesàro_summation

    In mathematical analysis, Cesàro summation (also known as the Cesàro mean [1] [2] or Cesàro limit [3]) assigns values to some infinite sums that are not necessarily convergent in the usual sense. The Cesàro sum is defined as the limit, as n tends to infinity, of the sequence of arithmetic means of the first n partial sums of the series.
