    72.389: 8.000: 7.778: 7.700 ... can then be further simplified by Taylor approximations ... As a sophisticated but elegant mathematical method to achieve a ...

  3. Mutagenesis (molecular biology technique) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutagenesis_(molecular...

    Types of mutations that can be introduced by random, site-directed, combinatorial, or insertional mutagenesis. In molecular biology, mutagenesis is an important laboratory technique whereby DNA mutations are deliberately engineered to produce libraries of mutant genes, proteins, strains of bacteria, or other genetically modified organisms.

  4. Simplex algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplex_algorithm

    The simplex method is remarkably efficient in practice and was a great improvement over earlier methods such as Fourier–Motzkin elimination. However, in 1972, Klee and Minty [ 32 ] gave an example, the Klee–Minty cube , showing that the worst-case complexity of simplex method as formulated by Dantzig is exponential time .

  5. Trachtenberg system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachtenberg_system

    Trachtenberg called this the 2 Finger Method. The calculations for finding the fourth digit from the example above are illustrated at right. The arrow from the nine will always point to the digit of the multiplicand directly above the digit of the answer you wish to find, with the other arrows each pointing one digit to the right.

  6. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing...

    A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...

  7. Potentially all pairwise rankings of all possible alternatives

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentially_all_pairwise...

    The PAPRIKA method resolves this 'impossibility' problem by ensuring that the number of pairwise rankings that decision-makers need to perform is kept to a minimum – i.e. only a small fraction of the potentially millions or billions of undominated pairs – so that the burden on decision-makers is minimized and the method is practicable.

  8. SIMPLE algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIMPLE_algorithm

    SIMPLE is an acronym for Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations. The SIMPLE algorithm was developed by Prof. Brian Spalding and his student Suhas Patankar at Imperial College London in the early 1970s. Since then it has been extensively used by many researchers to solve different kinds of fluid flow and heat transfer problems. [1]

  9. Halley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halley's_method

    In numerical analysis, Halley's method is a root-finding algorithm used for functions of one real variable with a continuous second derivative. Edmond Halley was an English mathematician and astronomer who introduced the method now called by his name. The algorithm is second in the class of Householder's methods, after Newton's method.
