  2. Even and odd functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_and_odd_functions

    They are named for the parity of the powers of the power functions which satisfy each condition: the function () = is even if n is an even integer, and it is odd if n is an odd integer. Even functions are those real functions whose graph is self-symmetric with respect to the y -axis, and odd functions are those whose graph is self-symmetric ...

  3. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  4. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    In Boolean algebra, a parity function is a Boolean function whose value is one if and only if the input vector has an odd number of ones. The parity function of two inputs is also known as the XOR function. The parity function is notable for its role in theoretical investigation of circuit complexity of Boolean functions. The output of the ...

  5. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    If n > 1, then there are just as many even permutations in S n as there are odd ones; [3] consequently, A n contains n!/2 permutations. (The reason is that if σ is even then (1 2)σ is odd, and if σ is odd then (1 2)σ is even, and these two maps are inverse to each other.) [3] A cycle is even if and only if its length is odd. This follows ...

  6. Parity bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_bit

    Accordingly, there are two variants of parity bits: even parity bit and odd parity bit. In the case of even parity, for a given set of bits, the bits whose value is 1 are counted. If that count is odd, the parity bit value is set to 1, making the total count of occurrences of 1s in the whole set (including the parity bit) an even number. If the ...

  7. Symmetric Boolean function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_Boolean_function

    One-hot or 1-in-n function: their value is 1 on input vectors with exactly one one; One-cold function: their value is 1 on input vectors with exactly one zero; Congruence functions: their value is 1 on input vectors with the number of ones congruent to k mod m for fixed k, m; Parity function: their value is 1 if the input vector has odd number ...

  8. Parity of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero

    Among the general public, the parity of zero can be a source of confusion. In reaction time experiments, most people are slower to identify 0 as even than 2, 4, 6, or 8. Some teachers—and some children in mathematics classes—think that zero is odd, or both even and odd, or neither.

  9. Double factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_factorial

    The final expression is defined for all complex numbers except the negative even integers and satisfies (z + 2)!! = (z + 2) · z!! everywhere it is defined. As with the gamma function that extends the ordinary factorial function, this double factorial function is logarithmically convex in the sense of the Bohr–Mollerup theorem.
