  2. External sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_sorting

    external sorting algorithm. External sorting is a class of sorting algorithms that can handle massive amounts of data.External sorting is required when the data being sorted do not fit into the main memory of a computing device (usually RAM) and instead they must reside in the slower external memory, usually a disk drive.

  3. Percentage solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage_solution

    Percentage solution may refer to: Mass fraction (or "% w/w" or "wt.%"), for percent mass; Volume fraction (or "% v/v" or "vol.%"), volume concentration, for percent volume "Mass/volume percentage" (or "% m/v") in biology, for mass per unit volume; incorrectly used to denote mass concentration (chemistry). See usage in biology

  5. Beta distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_distribution

    A practical application of this occurs for example for random walks, since the probability for the time of the last visit to the origin in a random walk is distributed as the arcsine distribution Beta(1/2, 1/2): [5] [12] the mean of a number of realizations of a random walk is a much more robust estimator than the median (which is an ...

  6. Pareto principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle

    The Pareto principle may apply to fundraising, i.e. 20% of the donors contributing towards 80% of the total. The Pareto principle (also known as the 80/20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity [1] [2]) states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the "vital few").

  7. Perth, Scotland - Wikipedia

    The name "Perth" derives from a Pictish word for "wood" or "copse", related to the Welsh "perth", meaning "hedge" or "thicket".

    For example, in the Netherlands and some other countries of Europe, knowledge of English as a second language is nearly universal, with over 80 percent of the population able to use it, [91] and thus English is routinely used to communicate with foreigners and often in higher education. In these countries, although English is not used for ...

  9. Polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene

    The less the polymer chains are branched, and the lower the molecular weight, the higher the crystallinity of polyethylene. Crystallinity ranges from 35% (PE-LD/PE-LLD) to 80% (PE-HD). Polyethylene has a density of 1.0 g/cm 3 in crystalline regions and 0.86 g/cm 3 in amorphous regions. An almost linear relationship exists between density and ...
