The Little Professor is a backwards-functioning calculator designed for children ages 5 to 9. Instead of providing the answer to a mathematical expression entered by the user, it generates unsolved expressions and prompts the user for the answer.
In number theory, a branch of mathematics, the special number field sieve (SNFS) is a special-purpose integer factorization algorithm. The general number field sieve (GNFS) was derived from it. The special number field sieve is efficient for integers of the form r e ± s, where r and s are small (for instance Mersenne numbers).
Tick sizes can be fixed (e.g., USD 0.0001) or vary according to the current price (common in European markets) with larger increments at higher prices. Heavily-traded stocks are given smaller tick sizes. An instrument price is always a rational number and the tick sizes determine the numbers that are permissible for a given instrument and exchange.
This is the size used for start+increment and random AutoNumbers. For replication ID AutoNumbers, the FieldSize property of the field is changed from long integer to Replication ID. [2] If an AutoNumber is a long integer, the NewValues property determines whether it is of the start+increment or random form. The values that this property can ...
The HP-32S (codenamed "Leonardo") was a programmable RPN scientific calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1988. [1] It was succeeded by the HP-32SII scientific calculator. [ 2 ]
In that the existence of uniquely characterises the number ′ (), the fundamental increment lemma can be said to characterise the differentiability of single-variable functions. For this reason, a generalisation of the lemma can be used in the definition of differentiability in multivariable calculus .
In finite field theory, a branch of mathematics, a primitive polynomial is the minimal polynomial of a primitive element of the finite field GF(p m).This means that a polynomial F(X) of degree m with coefficients in GF(p) = Z/pZ is a primitive polynomial if it is monic and has a root α in GF(p m) such that {,,,,, …} is the entire field GF(p m).
In a non-Archimedean ordered field, we can find two positive elements x and y such that, for every natural number n, nx ≤ y.This means that the positive element y/x is greater than every natural number n (so it is an "infinite element"), and the positive element x/y is smaller than 1/n for every natural number n (so it is an "infinitesimal element").
