  2. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    In computer science, a lookup table (LUT) is an array that replaces runtime computation of a mathematical function with a simpler array indexing operation, in a process termed as direct addressing. The savings in processing time can be significant, because retrieving a value from memory is often faster than carrying out an "expensive ...

  3. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    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]

  4. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spreadsheet

    Formulas in the B column multiply values from the A column using relative references, and the formula in B4 uses the SUM() function to find the sum of values in the B1:B3 range. A formula identifies the calculation needed to place the result in the cell it is contained within. A cell containing a formula, therefore, has two display components ...

    Thus, if the array is seen as a function on a set of possible index combinations, it is the dimension of the space of which its domain is a discrete subset. Thus a one-dimensional array is a list of data, a two-dimensional array is a rectangle of data, [12] a three-dimensional array a block of data, etc.

    6174 is known as Kaprekar's constant [1] [2] [3] after the Indian mathematician D. R. Kaprekar. This number is renowned for the following rule: This number is renowned for the following rule: Take any four-digit number, using at least two different digits (leading zeros are allowed).

  7. Net present value - Wikipedia

    When using Microsoft's Excel, the "=NPV(...)" formula makes two assumptions that result in an incorrect solution. The first is that the amount of time between each item in the input array is constant and equidistant (e.g., 30 days of time between item 1 and item 2) which may not always be correct based on the cash flow that is being discounted.

  8. Mathematical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_constant

    Apery's constant is defined as the sum of the reciprocals of the cubes of the natural numbers: = = = + + + + It is the special value of the Riemann zeta function at =. The quest to find an exact value for this constant in terms of other known constants and elementary functions originated when Euler famously solved the Basel problem by giving ζ ...

  9. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    Elements can be removed from the end of a dynamic array in constant time, as no resizing is required. The number of elements used by the dynamic array contents is its logical size or size, while the size of the underlying array is called the dynamic array's capacity or physical size, which is the maximum possible size without relocating data.
