  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

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

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  3. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    Unlike an ordinary series, the formal power series is not required to converge: in fact, the generating function is not actually regarded as a function, and the "variable" remains an indeterminate. One can generalize to formal power series in more than one indeterminate, to encode information about infinite multi-dimensional arrays of numbers.

  4. Formal group law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_group_law

    The height of a one-dimensional formal group law over a field of characteristic p > 0 is defined to be the height of its multiplication by p map. Two one-dimensional formal group laws over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0 are isomorphic if and only if they have the same height, and the height can be any positive integer or ∞.

  5. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  6. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

    Subroutine in Excel calculates the square of named column variable x read from the spreadsheet, and writes it into the named column variable y. The Windows version of Excel supports programming through Microsoft's Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), which is a dialect of Visual Basic. Programming with VBA allows spreadsheet manipulation that ...

  7. Power series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_series

    In mathematics, a power series (in one variable) is an infinite series of the form = = + + + … where represents the coefficient of the nth term and c is a constant called the center of the series. Power series are useful in mathematical analysis , where they arise as Taylor series of infinitely differentiable functions .

  8. Power series (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_series_(disambiguation)

    A power series is an infinite sum of monomials. It may also refer to: IBM ThinkPad Power Series; Multiple TV series were titled Power or The Power: Power (TV series)

  9. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

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

    To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.
