    Knapsack problem, quadratic knapsack problem, and several variants [2] [3]: MP9 Some problems related to Multiprocessor scheduling; Numerical 3-dimensional matching [3]: SP16 Open-shop scheduling; Partition problem [2] [3]: SP12 Quadratic assignment problem [3]: ND43 Quadratic programming (NP-hard in some cases, P if convex)

  3. Mathematical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_analysis

    Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to general symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics). [25] Modern numerical analysis does not seek exact answers, because exact answers are often impossible to obtain in practice.

    All India Secondary School Examination, commonly known as the class 10th board exam, is a centralized public examination that students in schools affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education, primarily in India but also in other Indian-patterned schools affiliated to the CBSE across the world, taken at the end of class 10. The board ...

  6. Shooting method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_method

    In numerical analysis, the shooting method is a method for solving a boundary value problem by reducing it to an initial value problem.It involves finding solutions to the initial value problem for different initial conditions until one finds the solution that also satisfies the boundary conditions of the boundary value problem.

    That is, a 2 is even, which implies that a must also be even, as seen in the proposition above (in #Proof by contraposition). So we can write a = 2c, where c is also an integer. Substitution into the original equation yields 2b 2 = (2c) 2 = 4c 2. Dividing both sides by 2 yields b 2 = 2c 2. But then, by the same argument as before, 2 divides b 2 ...

    Equivalence class: given an equivalence relation, [] often denotes the equivalence class of the element x. 3. Integral part : if x is a real number , [ x ] {\displaystyle [x]} often denotes the integral part or truncation of x , that is, the integer obtained by removing all digits after the decimal mark .

    Thus one will expect to be within 1 ⁄ 8 to 8 times the correct value – within an order of magnitude, and much less than the worst case of erring by a factor of 2 9 = 512 (about 2.71 orders of magnitude). If one has a shorter chain or estimates more accurately, the overall estimate will be correspondingly better.
