  2. MATLAB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    However, the syntax and calling conventions are significantly different from other languages. MATLAB has value classes and reference classes, depending on whether the class has handle as a super-class (for reference classes) or not (for value classes). [45] Method call behavior is different between value and reference classes.

  3. Explicit and implicit methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_and_implicit_methods

    That said, whether one should use an explicit or implicit method depends upon the problem to be solved. Since the implicit method cannot be carried out for each kind of differential operator, it is sometimes advisable to make use of the so called operator splitting method, which means that the differential operator is rewritten as the sum of ...

  4. Interval arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_arithmetic

    The main objective of interval arithmetic is to provide a simple way of calculating upper and lower bounds of a function's range in one or more variables. These endpoints are not necessarily the true supremum or infimum of a range since the precise calculation of those values can be difficult or impossible; the bounds only need to contain the function's range as a subset.

  5. Conditional loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_loop

    The following is a C-style While loop.It continues looping while x does not equal 3, or in other words it only stops looping when x equals 3.However, since x is initialized to 0 and the value of x is never changed in the loop, the loop will never end (infinite loop).

  6. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    Like raw strings, there can be any number of equals signs between the square brackets, provided both the opening and closing tags have a matching number of equals signs; this allows nesting as long as nested block comments/raw strings use a different number of equals signs than their enclosing comment: --[[comment --[=[ nested comment ...

  7. P versus NP problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem

    Gödel, in his early thoughts on computational complexity, noted that a mechanical method that could solve any problem would revolutionize mathematics: [36] [37] If there really were a machine with φ( n ) ∼ k ⋅ n (or even ∼ k ⋅ n 2 ), this would have consequences of the greatest importance.

  8. Bellman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellman_equation

    Bellman showed that a dynamic optimization problem in discrete time can be stated in a recursive, step-by-step form known as backward induction by writing down the relationship between the value function in one period and the value function in the next period. The relationship between these two value functions is called the "Bellman equation".

  9. Algorithm - Wikipedia

    Flowchart of using successive subtractions to find the greatest common divisor of number r and s. In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm (/ ˈ æ l ɡ ə r ɪ ð əm / ⓘ) is a finite sequence of mathematically rigorous instructions, typically used to solve a class of specific problems or to perform a computation.
