  2. Deterministic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_algorithm

    Deterministic algorithms are by far the most studied and familiar kind of algorithm, as well as one of the most practical, since they can be run on real machines efficiently. Formally, a deterministic algorithm computes a mathematical function ; a function has a unique value for any input in its domain , and the algorithm is a process that ...

  3. Niacin/lovastatin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niacin/lovastatin

    It was a combination of the lipid-modifying drug/vitamin niacin in extended release form and the statin drug lovastatin (trade name Mevacor). [1] The combination preparation was developed by Kos Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which was acquired by Abbott Laboratories in 2006, subsequently transferred to AbbVie Inc. when that company was spun off from ...

  4. Vitamin B3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_B3

    Example of a label showing the amount of niacin (Vitamin B3), and specifying to be niacinamide in the ingredient section.. The United States Government adopted the terms niacin and niacinamide in 1942 as alternate names for nicotinic acid and nicotinamide, respectively, and encouraged their use in nontechnical contexts to avoid the public’s confusing them with the nearly unrelated (and toxic ...

  5. Nosé–Hoover thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nosé–Hoover_thermostat

    In simple terms, it means that the algorithm fails to generate a canonical distribution for a single harmonic oscillator. This feature of the Nosé–Hoover algorithm has prompted the development of newer thermostatting algorithms—the kinetic moments method [ 2 ] that controls the first two moments of the kinetic energy, Bauer–Bulgac ...

  6. Megavitamin therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megavitamin_therapy

    Niacin is available as a prescription product, either immediate release (500 mg tablets; prescribed up to 3,000 mg/day) or extended release (500 and 1,000 mg tablets; prescribed up to 2,000 mg/day). In the US, niacin is also available as a dietary supplement at 500 to 1,000 mg/tablet. Niacin has sometimes been used in combination with other ...

  7. Nicotinamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotinamide

    Nicotinamide (INN, BAN UK [2]) or niacinamide (USAN US) is a form of vitamin B 3 found in food and used as a dietary supplement and medication. [3] [4] [5] As a supplement, it is used orally (swallowed by mouth) to prevent and treat pellagra (niacin deficiency). [4]

  8. Yao's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yao's_principle

    When the cost denotes the running time of an algorithm, Yao's principle states that the best possible running time of a deterministic algorithm, on a hard input distribution, gives a lower bound for the expected time of any Las Vegas algorithm on its worst-case input. Here, a Las Vegas algorithm is a randomized algorithm whose runtime may vary ...

  9. Vitamin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin

    Vitamin C can be synthesized by some species but not by others. Vitamin B 12 is the only vitamin or nutrient not available from plant sources. The Food Fortification Initiative lists countries which have mandatory fortification programs for vitamins folic acid, niacin, vitamin A and vitamins B 1, B 2 and B 12. [9]
