  2. Remainder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remainder

    The number q is called the quotient, while r is called the remainder. (For a proof of this result, see Euclidean division. For algorithms describing how to calculate the remainder, see division algorithm.) The remainder, as defined above, is called the least positive remainder or simply the remainder. [2]

  3. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.

    For example, "three nines" or "3N" indicates 0.999 or 99.9%, "four nines five" or "4N5" is the expression for the number 0.99995 or 99.995%. [109] [110] [111] Typical areas of usage are: The reliability of computer systems, that is the ratio of uptime to the sum of uptime and downtime.

    Legendre symbol: If p is an odd prime number and a is an integer, the value of () is 1 if a is a quadratic residue modulo p; it is –1 if a is a quadratic non-residue modulo p; it is 0 if p divides a.

  7. 255 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/255_(number)

    255 is a special number in some tasks having to do with computing. This is the maximum value representable by an eight-digit binary number, and therefore the maximum representable by an unsigned 8-bit byte (the most common size of byte, also called an octet), the smallest common variable size used in high level programming languages (bit being smaller, but rarely used for value storage).

  8. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    To get the two's complement of a negative binary number, all bits are inverted, or "flipped", by using the bitwise NOT operation; the value of 1 is then added to the resulting value, ignoring the overflow which occurs when taking the two's complement of 0. For example, using 1 byte (=8 bits), the decimal number 5 is represented by 0000 0101 2 ...

  9. 0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0

    A number line from −3 to 3, with 0 in the middle. The number 0 is the smallest nonnegative integer, and the largest nonpositive integer. The natural number following 0 is 1 and no natural number precedes 0. The number 0 may or may not be considered a natural number, [70] [71] but it is an integer, and hence a rational number and a real number ...
