  2. Pentium FDIV bug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_FDIV_bug

    Thomas Nicely, a professor of mathematics at Lynchburg College, had written code to enumerate primes, twin primes, prime triplets, and prime quadruplets.Nicely noticed some inconsistencies in the calculations on June 13, 1994, shortly after adding a Pentium system to his group of computers, but was unable to eliminate other factors (such as programming errors, motherboard chipsets, etc.) until ...

  3. Burst error-correcting code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_error-correcting_code

    Proof. We need to prove that if you add a burst of length to a codeword (i.e. to a polynomial that is divisible by ()), then the result is not going to be a codeword (i.e. the corresponding polynomial is not divisible by ()).

  5. Error detection and correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_detection_and_correction

    Error-correcting codes are used in lower-layer communication such as cellular network, high-speed fiber-optic communication and Wi-Fi, [11] [12] as well as for reliable storage in media such as flash memory, hard disk and RAM. [13] Error-correcting codes are usually distinguished between convolutional codes and block codes:

  7. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length.

  8. Category:Errors reported by Module String - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Errors_reported...

    This category is a catch-all for errors reported by Module:String. Such errors generally occur due to incorrect parameters, such as indices that are out of range for the strings being examined. Users of Module:String may also specify an alternative cat to use via the error_category= parameter.

  9. Verhoeff algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verhoeff_algorithm

    This is actually a single permutation (1 5 8 9 4 2 7 0)(3 6) applied iteratively; i.e. p(i+j,n) = p(i, p(j,n)). The Verhoeff checksum calculation is performed as follows: Create an array n out of the individual digits of the number, taken from right to left (rightmost digit is n 0, etc.). Initialize the checksum c to zero.
