2. Elementary arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_arithmetic

   The sum of two numbers is unique; there is only one correct answer for a sums. [8] When the sum of a pair of digits results in a two-digit number, the "tens" digit is referred to as the "carry digit". [9] In elementary arithmetic, students typically learn to add whole numbers and may also learn about topics such as negative numbers and fractions.

3. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

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

   Traditionally, carry is taught in the addition of multi-digit numbers in the 2nd or late first year of elementary school. However, since the late 20th century, many widely adopted curricula developed in the United States such as TERC omitted instruction of the traditional carry method in favor of invented arithmetic methods, and methods using ...

4. Method of complements - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_complements

   To subtract a decimal number y (the subtrahend) from another number x (the minuend) two methods may be used: In the first method, the nines' complement of x is added to y. Then the nines' complement of the result obtained is formed to produce the desired result. In the second method, the nines' complement of y is added to x and one is added to ...

5. Subtraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtraction

   [2] In a sense, subtraction is the inverse of addition. That is, c = a − b if and only if c + b = a. In words: the difference of two numbers is the number that gives the first one when added to the second one. Subtraction follows several important patterns. It is anticommutative, meaning that changing the order changes the sign of the answer.

6. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9. When exponents were introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries, they were given precedence over both addition and multiplication and placed as a superscript to the right of ...

7. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

   The standard procedure for multiplication of two n-digit numbers requires a number of elementary operations proportional to , or () in big-O notation. Andrey Kolmogorov conjectured that the traditional algorithm was asymptotically optimal , meaning that any algorithm for that task would require Ω ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle \Omega (n^{2 ...
