  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics , a matrix ( pl. : matrices ) is a rectangular array or table of numbers , symbols , or expressions , with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.

    Excel offers many user interface tweaks over the earliest electronic spreadsheets; however, the essence remains the same as in the original spreadsheet software, VisiCalc: the program displays cells organized in rows and columns, and each cell may contain data or a formula, with relative or absolute references to other cells.

    Example of a spreadsheet holding data about a group of audio tracks. A spreadsheet is a computer application for computation, organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. [1] [2] [3] Spreadsheets were developed as computerized analogs of paper accounting worksheets. [4] The program operates on data entered in cells of a table.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_vectors

    In linear algebra, a column vector with ⁠ ⁠ elements is an matrix [1] consisting of a single column of ⁠ ⁠ entries, for example, = [].. Similarly, a row vector is a matrix for some ⁠ ⁠, consisting of a single row of ⁠ ⁠ entries, = […]. (Throughout this article, boldface is used for both row and column vectors.)

  7. Transformation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_matrix

    One of the main motivations for using matrices to represent linear transformations is that transformations can then be easily composed and inverted. Composition is accomplished by matrix multiplication. Row and column vectors are operated upon by matrices, rows on the left and columns on the right. Since text reads from left to right, column ...

    Snapshot fact tables record facts at a given point in time (e.g., account details at month end) Accumulating snapshot tables record aggregate facts at a given point in time (e.g., total month-to-date sales for a product) Fact tables are generally assigned a surrogate key to ensure each row can be uniquely identified. This key is a simple ...

  9. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    More generally, there are d! possible orders for a given array, one for each permutation of dimensions (with row-major and column-order just 2 special cases), although the lists of stride values are not necessarily permutations of each other, e.g., in the 2-by-3 example above, the strides are (3,1) for row-major and (1,2) for column-major.
