  4. Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe...

    The search procedure consists of choosing a range of parameter values for s, b, and m, evaluating the sums out to many digits, and then using an integer relation-finding algorithm (typically Helaman Ferguson's PSLQ algorithm) to find a sequence A that adds up those intermediate sums to a well-known constant or perhaps to zero.

  5. Gauss–Legendre algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Legendre_algorithm

    The Gauss–Legendre algorithm is an algorithm to compute the digits of π. It is notable for being rapidly convergent, with only 25 iterations producing 45 million correct digits of π . However, it has some drawbacks (for example, it is computer memory -intensive) and therefore all record-breaking calculations for many years have used other ...

  6. List of algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_algorithms

    An algorithm is fundamentally a set of rules or defined procedures that is typically designed and used to solve a specific problem or a broad set of problems.. Broadly, algorithms define process(es), sets of rules, or methodologies that are to be followed in calculations, data processing, data mining, pattern recognition, automated reasoning or other problem-solving operations.

  7. Process calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_calculus

    The use of channels for communication is one of the features distinguishing the process calculi from other models of concurrency, such as Petri nets and the actor model (see Actor model and process calculi). One of the fundamental motivations for including channels in the process calculi was to enable certain algebraic techniques, thereby ...

  8. Communicating sequential processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicating_sequential...

    In computer science, communicating sequential processes (CSP) is a formal language for describing patterns of interaction in concurrent systems. [1] It is a member of the family of mathematical theories of concurrency known as process algebras, or process calculi, based on message passing via channels.

  9. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    Machin-like formulas for π can be constructed by finding a set of integers , =, where all the prime factorisations of ⁠ + ⁠, taken together, use a number of distinct primes , and then using either linear algebra or the LLL basis-reduction algorithm to construct linear combinations of arctangents of . For example, in the Størmer formula ...
