  2. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal ...

    The return type, Task<T>, is C#'s analogue to the concept of a promise, and here is indicated to have a result value of type int. The first expression to execute when this method is called will be new HttpClient().GetByteArrayAsync(uri) , [ 13 ] : 189–190, 344 [ 1 ] : 882 which is another asynchronous method returning a Task<byte[]> .

  4. Increment and decrement operators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Increment_and_decrement...

    In languages with typed pointers like C, the increment operator steps the pointer to the next item of that type -- increasing the value of the pointer by the size of that type. When a pointer (of the right type) points to any item in an array, incrementing (or decrementing) makes the pointer point to the "next" (or "previous") item of that array.

  5. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    In some contexts it is desirable to round a given number x to a "neat" fraction – that is, the nearest fraction y = m/n whose numerator m and denominator n do not exceed a given maximum. This problem is fairly distinct from that of rounding a value to a fixed number of decimal or binary digits, or to a multiple of a given unit m.

  6. Type safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_safety

    In computer science, type safety and type soundness are the extent to which a programming language discourages or prevents type errors.Type safety is sometimes alternatively considered to be a property of facilities of a computer language; that is, some facilities are type-safe and their usage will not result in type errors, while other facilities in the same language may be type-unsafe and a ...

  9. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python provides a round function for rounding a float to the nearest integer. For tie-breaking, Python 3 uses round to even: round(1.5) and round(2.5) both produce 2. [124] Versions before 3 used round-away-from-zero: round(0.5) is 1.0, round(-0.5) is −1.0. [125] Python allows Boolean expressions with multiple equality relations in a manner ...
