    Operation Input Output Algorithm Complexity Addition: Two -digit numbers : One +-digit number : Schoolbook addition with carry ()Subtraction: Two -digit numbers : One +-digit number

  3. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_(arithmetic)

    Example: The addition of two decimal numbers. A typical example of carry is in the following pencil-and-paper addition: 1 27 + 59 ---- 86 . 7 + 9 = 16, and the digit 1 is the carry.

  4. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The algorithm performs summation with two accumulators: ... (simply adding the numbers in sequence, ... Starting with Python 3.12, the built-in "sum()" function uses ...

  5. Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_algorithm

    A multiplication algorithm is an algorithm (or method) to multiply two numbers. Depending on the size of the numbers, different algorithms are more efficient than others. Numerous algorithms are known and there has been much research into the t

  6. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

    The basic principle of Karatsuba's algorithm is divide-and-conquer, using a formula that allows one to compute the product of two large numbers and using three multiplications of smaller numbers, each with about half as many digits as or , plus some additions and digit shifts.

  7. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    An early application of parallel prefix sum algorithms was in the design of binary adders, Boolean circuits that can add two n-bit binary numbers. In this application, the sequence of carry bits of the addition can be represented as a scan operation on the sequence of pairs of input bits, using the majority function to combine the previous ...

  8. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    The most naïve algorithm would be to cycle through all subsets of n numbers and, for every one of them, check if the subset sums to the right number. The running time is of order O ( 2 n ⋅ n ) {\displaystyle O(2^{n}\cdot n)} , since there are 2 n {\displaystyle 2^{n}} subsets and, to check each subset, we need to sum at most n elements.

  9. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    When that occurs, that number is the GCD of the original two numbers. By reversing the steps or using the extended Euclidean algorithm, the GCD can be expressed as a linear combination of the two original numbers, that is the sum of the two numbers, each multiplied by an integer (for example, 21 = 5 × 105 + (−2) × 252).
