  2. M'Naghten rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M'Naghten_rules

    The House of Lords delivered the following exposition of the rules: . the jurors ought to be told in all cases that every man is to be presumed to be sane, and to possess a sufficient degree of reason to be responsible for his crimes, until the contrary be proved to their satisfaction; and that to establish a defence on the ground of insanity, it must be clearly proved that, at the time of the ...

  3. Thompson's construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson's_construction

    In computer science, Thompson's construction algorithm, also called the McNaughton–Yamada–Thompson algorithm, [1] is a method of transforming a regular expression into an equivalent nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA). [2] This NFA can be used to match strings against the regular expression. This algorithm is credited to Ken Thompson.

  4. Independent Chip Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_Chip_Model

    In addition to the payout structure, a Malmuth-Harville ICM calculator would also require the chip counts of all players as input, [8] which may not always be available. The Malmuth-Harville model also gives poor estimates for unlikely events, and is computationally intractable with many players.

  5. Instructions per cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructions_per_cycle

    The useful work that can be done with any computer depends on many factors besides the processor speed. These factors include the instruction set architecture, the processor's microarchitecture, and the computer system organization (such as the design of the disk storage system and the capabilities and performance of other attached devices), the efficiency of the operating system, and the high ...

  6. McNaughton's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNaughton's_Theorem

    In McNaughton's original paper, the theorem was stated as: "An ω-event is regular if and only if it is finite-state." In modern terminology, ω-events are commonly referred to as ω-languages. Following McNaughton's definition, an ω-event is a finite-state event if there exists a deterministic Muller automaton that recognizes it.

  7. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    Many simple calculators without a stack implement chain input, working in button-press order without any priority given to different operations, give a different result from that given by more sophisticated calculators. For example, on a simple calculator, typing 1 + 2 × 3 = yields 9, while a more sophisticated calculator will use a more ...

  8. Edward Macnaghten, Baron Macnaghten - Wikipedia

    British South Africa Co v Companhia de Moçambique [1893] AC 602 – the House of Lords overturned a Court of Appeal decision and by so doing established the Mozambique rule, a common law rule in private international law that renders actions relating to title in foreign land, the right to possession of foreign land, and trespass to foreign land non-justiciable in common law jurisdictions.

  9. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    For example: 17 × 11 17 × 10 = 170 170 + 17 = 187 17 × 11 = 187 One last easy way: If one has a two-digit number, take it and add the two numbers together and put that sum in the middle, and one can get the answer. For example: 24 x 11 = 264 because 2 + 4 = 6 and the 6 is placed in between the 2 and the 4.
