  2. Method of complements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_complements

    Use the same method to subtract 856 from 1000, and then add a negative sign to the result. Represent negative numbers as radix complements of their positive counterparts. Numbers less than / are considered positive; the rest are considered negative (and their magnitude can be obtained by taking the radix complement). This works best for even ...

  3. False positives and false negatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positives_and_false...

    The false positive rate (FPR) is the proportion of all negatives that still yield positive test outcomes, i.e., the conditional probability of a positive test result given an event that was not present. The false positive rate is equal to the significance level. The specificity of the test is equal to 1 minus the false positive rate.

  4. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike C++, Java has no global functions or variables, but has data members which are also regarded as global variables.

  5. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...

  6. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    A block is a grouping of code that is treated collectively. Many block syntaxes can consist of any number of items (statements, expressions or other units of code) – including one or zero. Languages delimit a block in a variety of ways – some via marking text and others by relative formatting such as levels of indentation.

  7. Signed zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_zero

    Signed zero is zero with an associated sign.In ordinary arithmetic, the number 0 does not have a sign, so that −0, +0 and 0 are equivalent. However, in computing, some number representations allow for the existence of two zeros, often denoted by −0 (negative zero) and +0 (positive zero), regarded as equal by the numerical comparison operations but with possible different behaviors in ...

  8. Relational operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator

    two objects being equal but distinct, e.g., two $10 banknotes; two objects being equal but having different representation, e.g., a $1 bill and a $1 coin; two different references to the same object, e.g., two nicknames for the same person; In many modern programming languages, objects and data structures are accessed through references. In ...

    The positive and negative normalized numbers closest to zero (represented with the binary value 1 in the Exp field and 0 in the fraction field) are ±1 × 2 −1022 ≈ ±2.22507 × 10 −308; The finite positive and finite negative numbers furthest from zero (represented by the value with 2046 in the Exp field and all 1s in the fraction field) are
