  2. Prime number theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_number_theorem

    Graph of the number of primes ending in 1, 3, 7, and 9 up to n for n < 10 000. Another example is the distribution of the last digit of prime numbers. Except for 2 and 5, all prime numbers end in 1, 3, 7, or 9. Dirichlet's theorem states that asymptotically, 25% of all primes end in each of these four digits.

  3. Minifloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minifloat

    bfloat16 and fp8 are common formats. [2] Additionally, they are frequently encountered as a pedagogical tool in computer-science courses to demonstrate the properties and structures of floating-point arithmetic and IEEE 754 numbers. Minifloats with 16 bits are half-precision numbers (opposed to single and double precision). There are also ...

  4. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

    Thus, log 10 (x) is related to the number of decimal digits of a positive integer x: The number of digits is the smallest integer strictly bigger than log 10 (x). [7] For example, log 10 (5986) is approximately 3.78 . The next integer above it is 4, which is the number of digits of 5986.

  5. Shor's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shor's_algorithm

    The problem that we are trying to solve is: given an odd composite number, find its integer factors. To achieve this, Shor's algorithm consists of two parts: A classical reduction of the factoring problem to the problem of order-finding.

  6. Senary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senary

    Thus, the base-36 number WIKI 36 is equal to the senary number 52303230 6. In decimal, it is 1,517,058. The choice of 36 as a radix is convenient in that the digits can be represented using the Arabic numerals 0–9 and the Latin letters A–Z; this choice is the basis of the base36 encoding scheme. The compression effect of 36 being the square ...

  7. C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++

    The name comes from C's ++ operator (which increments the value of a variable) and a common naming convention of using "+" to indicate an enhanced computer program. During C++'s development period, the language had been referred to as "new C" and "C with Classes" [30] [40] before acquiring its final name.

  8. Traditions and student activities at MIT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditions_and_student...

    MIT has relatively few formal traditions, compared to many other universities, but has a rich culture of informal traditions and jargon. There are a few "big events" such as Commencement (graduation), but many smaller, decentralized activities sponsored by departments, labs, living groups, student activities, and ad hoc groups of MIT community members united by common interests.

  9. 1970 United Kingdom general election - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970_United_Kingdom...

    Rose also argued that the turnout figures in Britain were "now among the lowest in the Western world." [2] Because the previous election had been in 1966, some people had not had their chance to vote in a general election until the age of 25. Labour's number of votes, 12.2 million, was ironically the same amount they had needed to win in 1964.
