  2. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    For any integer n, n ≡ 1 (mod 2) if and only if ⁠ 3n + 1 / 2 ⁠ ≡ 2 (mod 3). Equivalently, ⁠ 2n − 1 / 3 ⁠ ≡ 1 (mod 2) if and only if n ≡ 2 (mod 3). Conjecturally, this inverse relation forms a tree except for a 1–2 loop (the inverse of the 1–2 loop of the function f(n) revised as indicated above).

  3. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    [2] [3] Historically, the concept of a proof and its associated mathematical rigour first appeared in Greek mathematics , most notably in Euclid 's Elements . [ 4 ] Since its beginning, mathematics was primarily divided into geometry and arithmetic (the manipulation of natural numbers and fractions ), until the 16th and 17th centuries, when ...

  5. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  6. Bloom's taxonomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom's_taxonomy

    Bloom's taxonomy is a framework for categorizing educational goals, developed by a committee of educators chaired by Benjamin Bloom in 1956. It was first introduced in the publication Taxonomy of Educational Objectives: The Classification of Educational Goals.

  7. Quadratic reciprocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_reciprocity

    Quadratic Reciprocity (Legendre's statement). If p or q are congruent to 1 modulo 4, then: is solvable if and only if is solvable. If p and q are congruent to 3 modulo 4, then: is solvable if and only if is not solvable. The last is immediately equivalent to the modern form stated in the introduction above.

  8. Answer set programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_set_programming

    An early example of answer set programming was the planning method proposed in 1997 by Dimopoulos, Nebel and Köhler. [3] [4] Their approach is based on the relationship between plans and stable models. [5] In 1998 Soininen and Niemelä [6] applied what is now known as answer set programming to the problem of product configuration. [4]

  9. Android (operating system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)

    Developer options are initially hidden since Android 4.2 "Jelly Bean", but can be enabled by actuating the operating system's build number in the device information seven times. Hiding developers options again requires deleting user data for the "Settings" app, possibly resetting some other preferences. [139] [140] [141]
