  2. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  3. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    Parity only depends on the number of ones and is therefore a symmetric Boolean function.. The n-variable parity function and its negation are the only Boolean functions for which all disjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 monomials of length n and all conjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 clauses of length n.

  4. Even and odd functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_and_odd_functions

    That implies that product of any number of even functions is an even function as well. The product of two odd functions is an even function. The product of an even function and an odd function is an odd function. The quotient of two even functions is an even function. The quotient of two odd functions is an even function.

  5. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    The numbers in the right column are the inversion numbers (sequence A034968 in the OEIS), which have the same parity as the permutation. In mathematics, when X is a finite set with at least two elements, the permutations of X (i.e. the bijective functions from X to X) fall into two classes of equal size: the even permutations and the odd ...

  6. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The number is taken to be 'odd' or 'even' according to whether its numerator is odd or even. Then the formula for the map is exactly the same as when the domain is the integers: an 'even' such rational is divided by 2; an 'odd' such rational is multiplied by 3 and then 1 is added.

  7. Parity of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero

    A number n is odd if there is an integer k such that n = 2k + 1. One way to prove that zero is not odd is by contradiction: if 0 = 2k + 1 then k = −1/2, which is not an integer. [15] Since zero is not odd, if an unknown number is proven to be odd, then it cannot be zero.

  8. Difference of two squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_of_two_squares

    Galileo's law of odd numbers. A ramification of the difference of consecutive squares, Galileo's law of odd numbers states that the distance covered by an object falling without resistance in uniform gravity in successive equal time intervals is linearly proportional to the odd numbers. That is, if a body falling from rest covers a certain ...

  9. List of numeral systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_numeral_systems

    Total number of character codes in the (six) ASCII sticks containing printable characters. 97: Smallest base which is not perfect odd power (where generalized Wagstaff numbers can be factored algebraically) for which no generalized Wagstaff primes are known. 100: Centesimal: As 100=10 2, these are two decimal digits. 121
