  2. Non-numerical words for quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-numerical_words_for...

    The English language has a number of words that denote specific or approximate quantities that are themselves not numbers. [1] Along with numerals, and special-purpose words like some, any, much, more, every, and all, they are quantifiers. Quantifiers are a kind of determiner and occur in many constructions with other determiners, like articles ...

    2. Denotes the range of values that a measured quantity may have; for example, 10 ± 2 denotes an unknown value that lies between 8 and 12. ∓ (minus-plus sign) Used paired with ±, denotes the opposite sign; that is, + if ± is –, and – if ± is +. ÷ (division sign)

  4. Cardinality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality

    In the above section, "cardinality" of a set was defined functionally. In other words, it was not defined as a specific object itself. However, such an object can be defined as follows. The relation of having the same cardinality is called equinumerosity, and this is an equivalence relation on the class of all sets.

  5. Derangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derangement

    In other words, a derangement is a permutation that has no fixed points. The number of derangements of a set of size n is known as the subfactorial of n or the n th derangement number or n th de Montmort number (after Pierre Remond de Montmort). Notations for subfactorials in common use include !n, D n, d n, or n¡ . [a] [1] [2]

  7. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_type)

    In some languages, assigning a value to an element of an array automatically extends the array, if necessary, to include that element. In other array types, a slice can be replaced by an array of different size, with subsequent elements being renumbered accordingly – as in Python's list assignment A[5:5] = [10,20,30], that inserts three new ...

    Random variables are usually written in upper case Roman letters, such as or and so on. Random variables, in this context, usually refer to something in words, such as "the height of a subject" for a continuous variable, or "the number of cars in the school car park" for a discrete variable, or "the colour of the next bicycle" for a categorical variable.

  9. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    Indexes are also called subscripts. An index maps the array value to a stored object. There are three ways in which the elements of an array can be indexed: 0 (zero-based indexing) The first element of the array is indexed by subscript of 0. [8] 1 (one-based indexing) The first element of the array is indexed by subscript of 1. n (n-based indexing)
