The main application of statistical power is "power analysis", a calculation of power usually done before an experiment is conducted using data from pilot studies or a literature review. Power analyses can be used to calculate the minimum sample size required so that one can be reasonably likely to detect an effect of a given size (in other ...
Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables (+) = + + (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

An example is the derivative operator of calculus, /, which is a linear operator acting on functions () to give a new function (/) = ′ (). The n th power of the differentiation operator is the n th derivative:
The term RMS power is sometimes erroneously used (e.g., in the audio industry) as a synonym for mean power or average power (it is proportional to the square of the RMS voltage or RMS current in a resistive load). For a discussion of audio power measurements and their shortcomings, see Audio power.
Python's built-in pow() (exponentiation) function takes an optional third argument, the modulus.NET Framework's BigInteger class has a ModPow() method to perform modular exponentiation; Java's java.math.BigInteger class has a modPow() method to perform modular exponentiation; MATLAB's powermod function from Symbolic Math Toolbox
A sex offender who police said tried to "financially and emotionally manipulate" his victims has been jailed for 25 years. Stephen Gallagher, of Normandy Avenue in Colchester, was found guilty by ...
A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...
