  2. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    At points of discontinuity, a Fourier series converges to a value that is the average of its limits on the left and the right, unlike the floor, ceiling and fractional part functions: for y fixed and x a multiple of y the Fourier series given converges to y/2, rather than to x mod y = 0. At points of continuity the series converges to the true ...

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  4. Zero-based numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-based_numbering

    Zero is the lowest unsigned integer value, one of the most fundamental types in programming and hardware design. In computer science, zero is thus often used as the base case for many kinds of numerical recursion. Proofs and other sorts of mathematical reasoning in computer science often begin with zero.

    He used the resulting equation for calculations of π(x) for big values of x. [1] Meissel calculated π(x) for values of x up to 10 9, but he narrowly missed the correct result for the biggest value of x. [1] Using his method and an IBM 701, Lehmer was able to compute the correct value of π(10 9) and missed the correct value of π(10 10) by 1. [1]

    The value of is the number whose binary digits form the plot. The following plot demonstrates the addition of different values of k {\displaystyle k} . In the fourth subplot, the k-value of "AFGP" and "Aesthetic Function Graph" is added to get the resultant graph, where both texts can be seen with some distortion due to the effects of binary ...

  7. Truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation

    Truncation of positive real numbers can be done using the floor function. Given a number x ∈ R + {\displaystyle x\in \mathbb {R} _{+}} to be truncated and n ∈ N 0 {\displaystyle n\in \mathbb {N} _{0}} , the number of elements to be kept behind the decimal point, the truncated value of x is

  8. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    In Python, == compares by value. Python's is operator may be used to compare object identities (comparison by reference), and comparisons may be chained—for example, a <= b <= c. Python uses and, or, and not as Boolean operators. Python has a type of expression named a list comprehension, and a more general expression named a generator ...

  9. Change-making problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change-making_problem

    The following is a dynamic programming implementation (with Python 3) which uses a matrix to keep track of the optimal solutions to sub-problems, and returns the minimum number of coins, or "Infinity" if there is no way to make change with the coins given. A second matrix may be used to obtain the set of coins for the optimal solution.
