  2. Decimal representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_representation

    Moreover, in the standard decimal representation of , an infinite sequence of trailing 0's appearing after the decimal point is omitted, along with the decimal point itself if is an integer. Certain procedures for constructing the decimal expansion of x {\displaystyle x} will avoid the problem of trailing 9's.

  3. Non-integer base of numeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-integer_base_of_numeration

    This means that every integer can be expressed in base √ 2 without the need of a decimal point. The base can also be used to show the relationship between the side of a square to its diagonal as a square with a side length of 1 √ 2 will have a diagonal of 10 √ 2 and a square with a side length of 10 √ 2 will have a diagonal of 100 √ 2.

  4. Structural similarity index measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_similarity...

    The resultant SSIM index is a decimal value between -1 and 1, where 1 indicates perfect similarity, 0 indicates no similarity, and -1 indicates perfect anti-correlation. For an image, it is typically calculated using a sliding Gaussian window of size 11x11 or a block window of size 8×8.

  5. Complex-base system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex-base_system

    Listed below are some coding systems , (all are special cases of the systems above) and resp. codes for the (decimal) numbers −1, 2, −2, i. The standard binary (which requires a sign, first line) and the "negabinary" systems (second line) are also listed for comparison.

  6. Midy's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midy's_theorem

    In mathematics, Midy's theorem, named after French mathematician E. Midy, [1] is a statement about the decimal expansion of fractions a/p where p is a prime and a/p has a repeating decimal expansion with an even period (sequence A028416 in the OEIS). If the period of the decimal representation of a/p is 2n, so that

  7. Six nines in pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_nines_in_pi

    A sequence of six consecutive nines occurs in the decimal representation of the number pi (π), starting at the 762nd decimal place. [1] [2] It has become famous because of the mathematical coincidence, and because of the idea that one could memorize the digits of π up to that point, and then suggest that π is rational.

  8. Real number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_number

    The set of rational numbers is not complete. For example, the sequence (1; 1.4; 1.41; 1.414; 1.4142; 1.41421; ...), where each term adds a digit of the decimal expansion of the positive square root of 2, is Cauchy but it does not converge to a rational number (in the real numbers, in contrast, it converges to the positive square root of 2).

  9. Large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_numbers

    Large numbers, far beyond those encountered in everyday life—such as simple counting or financial transactions—play a crucial role in various domains.These expansive quantities appear prominently in mathematics, cosmology, cryptography, and statistical mechanics.
