  2. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    C mathematical operations are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing basic mathematical functions. [1] [2] All functions use floating-point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different, albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions. Most of these functions are also ...

  3. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total.Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.

  4. List of numerical libraries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_numerical_libraries

    The NAG Library has C++ API; NTL is a C++ library for number theory. OpenFOAM is an open-source C++ library for solving partial differential equations in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). SU2 code is an open-source library for solving partial differential equations with the finite volume or finite element method.

  5. Addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition

    Summation describes the addition of arbitrarily many numbers, usually more than just two. It includes the idea of the sum of a single number, which is itself, and the empty sum, which is zero. [93] An infinite summation is a delicate procedure known as a series. [94] Counting a finite set is equivalent to summing 1 over the set.

  6. Divide-and-conquer algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide-and-conquer_algorithm

    For example, one can add N numbers either by a simple loop that adds each datum to a single variable, or by a D&C algorithm called pairwise summation that breaks the data set into two halves, recursively computes the sum of each half, and then adds the two sums. While the second method performs the same number of additions as the first and pays ...

  7. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The algorithm performs summation with two accumulators: sum holds the sum, and c accumulates the parts not assimilated into sum, to nudge the low-order part of sum the next time around. Thus the summation proceeds with "guard digits" in c , which is better than not having any, but is not as good as performing the calculations with double the ...

  8. C++ Standard Library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_Standard_Library

    The C++ Standard Library provides several generic containers, functions to use and manipulate these containers, function objects, generic strings and streams (including interactive and file I/O), support for some language features, and functions for common tasks such as finding the square root of a number. The C++ Standard Library also ...

  9. APL (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, the sum function is derived by applying the reduction operator to the addition function. Applying the same reduction operator to the maximum function (which returns the larger of two numbers) derives a function which returns the largest of a group (vector) of numbers.
