  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

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

    Thus the 're-subtracting' of 1 leaves a mantissa ending in '100000000000000' instead of '010111000110010', representing a value of '1.1111111111117289E-4' rounded by Excel to 15 significant digits: '1.11111111111173E-4'. Of course mathematical 1 + x − 1 = x, 'floating point math' is sometimes a little different, that is not to be blamed on ...

  3. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    The choice of a variable name should be mnemonic — that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the intent of its use. One-character variable names should be avoided except for temporary "throwaway" variables. Common names for temporary variables are i, j, k, m, and n for integers; c, d, and e for characters. int i;

  4. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    When the computer calculates a formula in one cell to update the displayed value of that cell, cell reference(s) in that cell, naming some other cell(s), causes the computer to fetch the value of the named cell(s). A cell on the same "sheet" is usually addressed as: =A1 A cell on a different sheet of the same spreadsheet is usually addressed as:

    Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS and iPadOS.It features calculation or computation capabilities, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).

  6. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    The closeness of a match is measured in terms of the number of primitive operations necessary to convert the string into an exact match. This number is called the edit distance between the string and the pattern. The usual primitive operations are: [1] insertion: cot → coat; deletion: coat → cot; substitution: coat → cost

  7. Name–value pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name–value_pair

    Example of a web form with name-value pairs. A name–value pair, also called an attribute–value pair, key–value pair, or field–value pair, is a fundamental data representation in computing systems and applications. Designers often desire an open-ended data structure that allows for future extension without modifying existing code or data.

  8. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    There are two main types of variable-expanding algorithms for variable interpolation: [3] Replace and expand placeholders: creating a new string from the original one, by find–replace operations. Find variable reference (placeholder), replace it by its variable value. This algorithm offers no cache strategy.

  9. Object REXX - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_REXX

    When using VALUE, the WITH keyword is required to specify the end of an expression, followed by a parsing pattern. This pattern can be a list of variables, a position number or literal delimiters; it is possible to use these patterns in combination. Optionally, the upper and lower case of the string can be converted before parsing. [30]
