    This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 17 January 2025. Observation that in many real-life datasets, the leading digit is likely to be small For the unrelated adage, see Benford's law of controversy. The distribution of first digits, according to Benford's law. Each bar represents a digit, and the height of the bar is the percentage of ...

  3. Range (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(computer_programming)

    Another meaning of range in computer science is an alternative to iterator. When used in this sense, range is defined as "a pair of begin/end iterators packed together". [1] It is argued [1] that "Ranges are a superior abstraction" (compared to iterators) for several reasons, including better safety.

    Then, when testing membership of an element not in the set, for the array position given by any of the k hash functions, the probability that the bit is found set to 1 is . So the probability that all k hash functions find their bit set to 1 is ( 1 − q ) k {\displaystyle (1-q)^{k}} .

  5. Counting sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_sort

    Because it uses arrays of length k + 1 and n, the total space usage of the algorithm is also O(n + k). [1] For problem instances in which the maximum key value is significantly smaller than the number of items, counting sort can be highly space-efficient, as the only storage it uses other than its input and output arrays is the Count array ...

  6. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    In computer programming, foreach loop (or for-each loop) is a control flow statement for traversing items in a collection. foreach is usually used in place of a standard for loop statement.

    Examples of equally spaced values are 10, 100, 1000, 10000, and 100000 (i.e., 10 1, 10 2, 10 3, 10 4, 10 5) and 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 (i.e., 2 1, 2 2, 2 3, 2 4, 2 5). Exponential growth curves are often depicted on a logarithmic scale graph. A logarithmic scale from 0.1 to 100 The two logarithmic scales of a slide rule

  8. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    [1] For example, the expression "5 mod 2" evaluates to 1, because 5 divided by 2 has a quotient of 2 and a remainder of 1, while "9 mod 3" would evaluate to 0, because 9 divided by 3 has a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 0. Although typically performed with a and n both being integers, many computing systems now allow other types of numeric ...

  9. Range (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(statistics)

    In descriptive statistics, the range of a set of data is size of the narrowest interval which contains all the data. It is calculated as the difference between the largest and smallest values (also known as the sample maximum and minimum). [1] It is expressed in the same units as the data. The range provides an indication of statistical ...
