2. Integer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer

   For example, 21, 4, 0, and −2048 are integers, while 9.75, ⁠5 + 1 / 2 ⁠, 5/4, and √ 2 are not. [8] The integers form the smallest group and the smallest ring containing the natural numbers. In algebraic number theory, the integers are sometimes qualified as rational integers to distinguish them from the more general algebraic integers.

   Positive numbers: Real numbers that are greater than zero. Negative numbers: Real numbers that are less than zero. Because zero itself has no sign, neither the positive numbers nor the negative numbers include zero. When zero is a possibility, the following terms are often used: Non-negative numbers: Real numbers that are greater than or equal ...

4. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

   If unsigned 16-bit integers are used to represent values from 0 to 131,070 10, then a scale factor of 1 ⁄ 2 would be introduced, such that the scaled values correspond exactly to the real-world even integers. As a consequence, for example, the number 3 cannot be represented, because a stored 1 represents a real-world 2, and a stored 2 ...

5. Integer (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_(computer_science)

   In computer science, an integer is a datum of integral data type, a data type that represents some range of mathematical integers. Integral data types may be of different sizes and may or may not be allowed to contain negative values. Integers are commonly represented in a computer as a group of binary digits (bits). The size of the grouping ...

   Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic functions.German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory is the queen of mathematics."

   The branch of mathematics deals with the properties and relationships of numbers, especially positive integers. Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory ...
