  2. Greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm_for...

    The simplest fraction ⁠ 3 / y ⁠ with a three-term expansion is ⁠ 3 / 7 ⁠. A fraction ⁠ 4 / y ⁠ requires four terms in its greedy expansion if and only if y ≡ 1 or 17 (mod 24), for then the numerator −y mod x of the remaining fraction is 3 and the denominator is 1 (mod 6). The simplest fraction ⁠ 4 / y ⁠ with a four-term ...

  3. List of data structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_structures

    This order is usually determined by the order in which the elements are added to the structure, but the elements can be rearranged in some contexts, such as sorting a list. For a structure that isn't ordered, on the other hand, no assumptions can be made about the ordering of the elements (although a physical implementation of these data types ...

    That is, a 16-bit signed (two's complement) integer, that is implicitly multiplied by the scaling factor 2 −12. In particular, when n is zero, the numbers are just integers. If m is zero, all bits except the sign bit are fraction bits; then the range of the stored number is from −1.0 (inclusive) to +1.0 (exclusive).

  5. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

    A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

  6. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

    A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a common factor. It can be fully reduced to lowest terms if both are divided by their greatest common divisor. [5] In order to find the greatest common divisor, the Euclidean algorithm or prime factorization can be used. The Euclidean algorithm is ...

  7. Strassen algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strassen_algorithm

    This reduces the number of matrix additions and subtractions from 18 to 15. The number of matrix multiplications is still 7, and the asymptotic complexity is the same. [6] The algorithm was further optimised in 2017, [7] reducing the number of matrix additions per step to 12 while maintaining the number of matrix multiplications, and again in ...

  8. Finite field arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_field_arithmetic

    That is, one can perform operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication) using the usual operation on integers, followed by reduction modulo p. For instance, in GF(5), 4 + 3 = 7 is reduced to 2 modulo 5. Division is multiplication by the inverse modulo p, which may be computed using the extended Euclidean algorithm.

  9. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    The above array will be stored as a 11, a 12, a 13, a 21, a 22, a 23. This formula requires only k multiplications and k additions, for any array that can fit in memory. Moreover, if any coefficient is a fixed power of 2, the multiplication can be replaced by bit shifting.
