  2. Magic number (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(programming)

    the use of 2 to check whether a number is even or odd, as in isEven = (x % 2 == 0), where % is the modulo operator; the use of simple arithmetic constants, e.g., in expressions such as circumference = 2 * Math.PI * radius, [1] or for calculating the discriminant of a quadratic equation as d = b^2 − 4*a*c

  3. Escape sequences in C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_sequences_in_C

    The sequence \Uhhhhhhhh denotes the code point hhhhhhhh, interpreted as a hexadecimal number. Code points located at U+10000 or higher must be denoted with the \U syntax, whereas lower code points may use \u or \U. The code point is converted into a sequence of code units in the encoding of the

  4. Strong prime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_prime

    Or to put it algebraically, writing the sequence of prime numbers as (p 1, p 2, p 3, ...) = (2, 3, 5, ...), p n is a strong prime if p n > ⁠ p n − 1 + p n + 1 / 2 ⁠. For example, 17 is the seventh prime: the sixth and eighth primes, 13 and 19, add up to 32, and half that is 16; 17 is greater than 16, so 17 is a strong prime. The first few ...

  5. Strong pseudoprime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_pseudoprime

    A composite number n is a strong pseudoprime to at most one quarter of all bases below n; [3] [4] thus, there are no "strong Carmichael numbers", numbers that are strong pseudoprimes to all bases. Thus given a random base, the probability that a number is a strong pseudoprime to that base is less than 1/4, forming the basis of the widely used ...

  6. Three-way comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison

    In C++, any class that can be three-way compared can be a parameter to instances of std::compare_three_way, std::strong_order, std::weak_order, or std::partial_order. Since Java version 1.5, the same can be computed using the Math.signum static method if the difference can be known without computational problems such as arithmetic overflow ...

  7. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.

  8. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    On compilers that implement floats as IEEE single precision, and ints as at least 32 bits, this code will give this peculiar print-out: The integer is: 16777217 The float is: 16777216.000000 Their equality: 1

  9. Narcissistic number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_number

    In number theory, a narcissistic number [1] [2] (also known as a pluperfect digital invariant (PPDI), [3] an Armstrong number [4] (after Michael F. Armstrong) [5] or a plus perfect number) [6] in a given number base is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.
