  2. Sentinel value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_value

    The sentinel value is a form of in-band data that makes it possible to detect the end of the data when no out-of-band data (such as an explicit size indication) is provided. The value should be selected in such a way that it is guaranteed to be distinct from all legal data values since otherwise, the presence of such values would prematurely ...

  3. Rank–nullity theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank–nullity_theorem

    The rank–nullity theorem is a theorem in linear algebra, which asserts: the number of columns of a matrix M is the sum of the rank of M and the nullity of M ; and the dimension of the domain of a linear transformation f is the sum of the rank of f (the dimension of the image of f ) and the nullity of f (the dimension of the kernel of f ).

  4. Off-by-one error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error

    Off-by-one errors are common in using the C library because it is not consistent with respect to whether one needs to subtract 1 byte – functions like fgets() and strncpy will never write past the length given them (fgets() subtracts 1 itself, and only retrieves (length − 1) bytes), whereas others, like strncat will write past the length given them.

  5. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    Programming languages or their standard libraries that support multi-dimensional arrays typically have a native row-major or column-major storage order for these arrays. Row-major order is used in C / C++ / Objective-C (for C-style arrays), PL/I , [ 4 ] Pascal , [ 5 ] Speakeasy , [ citation needed ] and SAS .

  6. Nullity (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullity_(graph_theory)

    The nullity of a graph in the mathematical subject of graph theory can mean either of two unrelated numbers. If the graph has n vertices and m edges, then: In the matrix theory of graphs, the nullity of the graph is the nullity of the adjacency matrix A of the graph. The nullity of A is given by n − r where r is the rank of the adjacency

  7. Permutational analysis of variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutational_analysis_of...

    Permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA), [1] is a non-parametric multivariate statistical permutation test.PERMANOVA is used to compare groups of objects and test the null hypothesis that the centroids and dispersion of the groups as defined by measure space are equivalent for all groups.

  8. Range query (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_query_(computer_science)

    The top-k data structure at each node is constructed based on the values existing in the subtrees of that node and is meant to answer one-sided range top-k queries. Please note that for a one-dimensional array A {\displaystyle A} , a range tree can be constructed by dividing A {\displaystyle A} into two halves and recursing on both halves ...

  9. Knuth's Algorithm X - Wikipedia

    Step 3—Rows A and B each have a 1 in column 1 and thus are selected (nondeterministically). The algorithm moves to the first branch at level 1… Level 1: Select Row A Step 4—Row A is included in the partial solution. Step 5—Row A has a 1 in columns 1, 4, and 7:
