  2. Tetration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

    The term superexponentiation was published by Bromer in his paper Superexponentiation in 1987. [3] It was used earlier by Ed Nelson in his book Predicative Arithmetic, Princeton University Press, 1986. The term hyperpower [4] is a natural combination of hyper and power, which aptly describes tetration.

  4. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    The base 3 appears 5 times in the multiplication, because the exponent is 5. Here, 243 is the 5th power of 3, or 3 raised to the 5th power. The word "raised" is usually omitted, and sometimes "power" as well, so 3 5 can be simply read "3 to the 5th", or "3 to the 5".

  5. 0.999... - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0.999...

    (also written as 0. 9, 0.., or 0.(9)) is a repeating decimal that is an alternative way of writing the number 1. Following the standard rules for representing numbers in decimal notation, its value is the smallest number greater than or equal to every number in the sequence 0.9, 0.99, 0.999, .... It can be proved that this number is 1; that is,

  6. Zero to the power of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_to_the_power_of_zero

    Zero to the power of zero, denoted as 0 0, is a mathematical expression with different interpretations depending on the context. In certain areas of mathematics, such as combinatorics and algebra , 0 0 is conventionally defined as 1 because this assignment simplifies many formulas and ensures consistency in operations involving exponents .

  7. Rule of three (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(statistics)

    By symmetry, for only successes, the 95% confidence interval is [1−3/ n,1]. The rule is useful in the interpretation of clinical trials generally, particularly in phase II and phase III where often there are limitations in duration or statistical power. The rule of three applies well beyond medical research, to any trial done n times. If 300 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_mean

    In mathematics, generalised means (or power mean or Hölder mean from Otto Hölder) [1] are a family of functions for aggregating sets of numbers. These include as special cases the Pythagorean means ( arithmetic , geometric , and harmonic means ).

  9. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits. The only powers of 2 with all digits distinct are 2 0 = 1 to 2 15 = 32 768, 2 20 = 1 048 576 and 2 29 = 536 870 912.
