  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

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

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

  3. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    Merge sort. In computer science, a sorting algorithm is an algorithm that puts elements of a list into an order.The most frequently used orders are numerical order and lexicographical order, and either ascending or descending.

  4. Radix sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radix_sort

    In computer science, radix sort is a non-comparative sorting algorithm.It avoids comparison by creating and distributing elements into buckets according to their radix.For elements with more than one significant digit, this bucketing process is repeated for each digit, while preserving the ordering of the prior step, until all digits have been considered.

    Datatype auto detection is inconsistent. That is why ISO date sorting works best with data-sort-type=isoDate added to the column header. It also avoids problems when only one digit is used for the month or day. Leading zeros are no longer needed. All tables below have data-sort-type=isoDate added to the column headers.

  6. Natural sort order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_sort_order

    In computing, natural sort order (or natural sorting) is the ordering of strings in alphabetical order, except that multi-digit numbers are treated atomically, i.e., as if they were a single character. Natural sort order has been promoted as being more human-friendly ("natural") than machine-oriented, pure alphabetical sort order.

  7. Integer sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sorting

    Typically, it is assumed that w ≥ log 2 (max(n, K)); that is, that machine words are large enough to represent an index into the sequence of input data, and also large enough to represent a single key. [2] Integer sorting algorithms are usually designed to work in either the pointer machine or random access machine models of computing. The ...

  9. Sort (typesetting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sort_(typesetting)

    In physical typesetting, a sort or type is a block with a typographic character etched on it, used—when lined up with others—to print text. [1] In movable-type printing , the sort or type is cast from a matrix mold and assembled by hand with other sorts bearing additional characters into lines of type to make up a form , from which a page ...
