[1] In such cases the scale is dimensionless and exact throughout the model or drawing. The scale can be expressed in four ways: in words (a lexical scale), as a ratio, as a fraction and as a graphical (bar) scale. Thus on an architect's drawing one might read 'one centimeter to one meter', 1:100, 1/100, or 1 / 100 . A bar scale would ...
A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]
In general, if an increase of x percent is followed by a decrease of x percent, and the initial amount was p, the final amount is p (1 + 0.01 x)(1 − 0.01 x) = p (1 − (0.01 x) 2); hence the net change is an overall decrease by x percent of x percent (the square of the original percent change when expressed as a decimal number).
It is a ratio in the order of about 10 80 to 10 90, or at most one ten-billionth of a googol (0.00000001% of a googol). Carl Sagan pointed out that the total number of elementary particles in the universe is around 10 80 (the Eddington number ) and that if the whole universe were packed with neutrons so that there would be no empty space ...
A chart may indicate severe price swings because the chart only shows a portion of the range. When the entire price range is shown, the volatility is much less noticeable. A stock broker who earns fees from commissions can take advantage of interval ratio charts by using perceived volatility to encourage their customers to place more orders.
Ark Invest's Cathie Wood thinks that even though it has hit the $100,000 milestone recently, Bitcoin still has room to go far higher. By 2030, Wood believes it could be worth as much as $1.5 million.
For example, the Colossus supercomputer, a product of Elon Musk's company xAI, is said to contain 100,000 GPUs, with plans to increase that number to 1 million. The DeepSeek news hit Wall Street hard.
For example, on a plot axis showing log 2 fold changes, an 8-fold increase will be displayed at an axis value of 3 (since 2 3 = 8). However, there is no mathematical reason to only use logarithm to base 2, and due to many discrepancies in describing the log 2 fold changes in gene/protein expression, a new term "loget" has been proposed.
