  2. Persistence of a number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_of_a_number

    The additive persistence of 2718 is 2: first we find that 2 + 7 + 1 + 8 = 18, and then that 1 + 8 = 9. The multiplicative persistence of 39 is 3, because it takes three steps to reduce 39 to a single digit: 39 → 27 → 14 → 4. Also, 39 is the smallest number of multiplicative persistence 3.

  3. Pascaline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascaline

    Pascaline (also known as the arithmetic machine or Pascal's calculator) is a mechanical calculator invented by Blaise Pascal in 1642. Pascal was led to develop a calculator by the laborious arithmetical calculations required by his father's work as the supervisor of taxes in Rouen, France. [2]

  4. Windows Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

    Calculator is a basic calculator app introduced with the initial launch of the original iPhone and iPhone OS 1 in 2007. [8] The standard mode includes a number pad, buttons for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. The app also contains a scientific calculator, with support for exponents and trigonometric functions.

    3 0 sin + 2 x 3 0 cos = The 1 + 2 × 3 {\displaystyle 1+2\times 3} examples have been given twice. The first version is for simple calculators, showing how it is necessary to rearrange operands in order to get the correct result.

  7. Abacus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abacus

    The abacus was much faster for addition, somewhat faster for multiplication, but Feynman was faster at division. When the abacus was used for more complex operations, i.e. cube roots, Feynman won easily. However, the number chosen at random was close to a number Feynman happened to know was an exact cube, allowing him to use approximate methods ...

  8. Gödel numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gödel_numbering

    In the specific Gödel numbering used by Nagel and Newman, the Gödel number for the symbol "0" is 6 and the Gödel number for the symbol "=" is 5. Thus, in their system, the Gödel number of the formula "0 = 0" is 2 6 × 3 5 × 5 6 = 243,000,000.

  9. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculation

    For single digit numbers simply duplicate the number into the tens digit, for example: 1 × 11 = 11, 2 × 11 = 22, up to 9 × 11 = 99. The product for any larger non-zero integer can be found by a series of additions to each of its digits from right to left, two at a time.
