  2. Writing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_system

    For broader coverage of this topic, see Writing. A writing system comprises a set of symbols, called a script, as well as the rules by which the script represents a particular language. The earliest writing was invented during the late 4th millennium BC. Throughout history, each writing system invented without prior knowledge of writing gradually evolved from a system of proto-writing that ...

  3. List of writing systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_writing_systems

    Writing systems are used to record human language, and may be classified according to certain common features.. The usual name of the script is given first; the name of the languages in which the script is written follows (in brackets), particularly in the case where the language name differs from the script name.

  4. Word order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_order

    Fixed word order is one out of many ways to ease the processing of sentence semantics and reducing ambiguity. One method of making the speech stream less open to ambiguity (complete removal of ambiguity is probably impossible) is a fixed order of arguments and other sentence constituents. This works because speech is inherently linear.

  5. Linear programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming

    However, some problems have distinct optimal solutions; for example, the problem of finding a feasible solution to a system of linear inequalities is a linear programming problem in which the objective function is the zero function (i.e., the constant function taking the value zero everywhere).

  6. Algebraic modeling language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_modeling_language

    An AML does not solve those problems directly; instead, it calls appropriate external algorithms to obtain a solution. These algorithms are called solvers and can handle certain kind of mathematical problems like: linear problems; integer problems (mixed integer) quadratic problems; mixed complementarity problems

  7. LP-type problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LP-type_problem

    LP-type problems include many important optimization problems that are not themselves linear programs, such as the problem of finding the smallest circle containing a given set of planar points. They may be solved by a combination of randomized algorithms in an amount of time that is linear in the number of elements defining the problem, and ...

  8. Basic solution (linear programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_solution_(Linear...

    In linear programming, a discipline within applied mathematics, a basic solution is any solution of a linear programming problem satisfying certain specified technical conditions. For a polyhedron P {\displaystyle P} and a vector x ∗ ∈ R n {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} ^{*}\in \mathbb {R} ^{n}} , x ∗ {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} ^{*}} is a ...

  9. Dispositio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispositio

    Dispositio is the system used for the organization of arguments in the context of Western classical rhetoric. The word is Latin , and can be translated as "organization" or "arrangement". It is the second of five canons of classical rhetoric (the first being inventio , and the remaining being elocutio , memoria , and pronuntiatio ) that concern ...
