  2. Empty sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empty_sum

    In mathematics, an empty sum, or nullary sum, [1] is a summation where the number of terms is zero. The natural way to extend non-empty sums [ 2 ] is to let the empty sum be the additive identity . Let a 1 {\displaystyle a_{1}} , a 2 {\displaystyle a_{2}} , a 3 {\displaystyle a_{3}} , ... be a sequence of numbers, and let

  3. Block code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_code

    Other considerations enter the choice of a code. For example, hexagon packing into the constraint of a rectangular box will leave empty space at the corners. As the dimensions get larger, the percentage of empty space grows smaller. But at certain dimensions, the packing uses all the space and these codes are the so-called perfect codes.

  4. Direct sum of groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_sum_of_groups

    The group operation in the external direct sum is pointwise multiplication, as in the usual direct product. This subset does indeed form a group, and for a finite set of groups {H i} the external direct sum is equal to the direct product. If G = ΣH i, then G is isomorphic to Σ E {H i}. Thus, in a sense, the direct sum is an "internal ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming

    The class defines the data format or type (including member variables and their types) and available procedures (class methods or member functions) for a given type or class of object. Objects are created by calling a special type of method in the class known as a constructor .

  7. Pivot table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_table

    In this case, the column is ship date, the row is region and the data we would like to see is (sum of) units. These fields allow several kinds of aggregations, including: sum, average, standard deviation, count, etc. In this case, the total number of units shipped is displayed here using a sum aggregation.

  8. Goodness of fit - Wikipedia

    where and are the same as for the chi-square test, denotes the natural logarithm, and the sum is taken over all non-empty bins. Furthermore, the total observed count should be equal to the total expected count: ∑ i O i = ∑ i E i = N {\displaystyle \sum _{i}O_{i}=\sum _{i}E_{i}=N} where N {\textstyle N} is the total number of observations.

  9. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    In Python, if a name is intended to be "private", it is prefixed by one or two underscores. Private variables are enforced in Python only by convention. Names can also be suffixed with an underscore to prevent conflict with Python keywords. Prefixing with double underscores changes behaviour in classes with regard to name mangling.
