  2. Considered harmful - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Considered_harmful

    Considered harmful was popularized among computer scientists by Edsger Dijkstra's letter "Go To Statement Considered Harmful", [3] [4] published in the March 1968 Communications of the ACM (CACM), in which he criticized the excessive use of the GOTO statement in programming languages of the day and advocated structured programming instead.

  3. R (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    R is a programming language for statistical computing and data visualization.It has been adopted in the fields of data mining, bioinformatics and data analysis. [9]The core R language is augmented by a large number of extension packages, containing reusable code, documentation, and sample data.

  4. Automatic summarization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_summarization

    Abstractive summarization methods generate new text that did not exist in the original text. [12] This has been applied mainly for text. Abstractive methods build an internal semantic representation of the original content (often called a language model), and then use this representation to create a summary that is closer to what a human might express.

  5. Programming with Big Data in R - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_with_Big_Data_in_R

    Programming with Big Data in R (pbdR) [1] is a series of R packages and an environment for statistical computing with big data by using high-performance statistical computation. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The pbdR uses the same programming language as R with S3/S4 classes and methods which is used among statisticians and data miners for developing statistical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pragmatic_Programmer

    The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master is a book about computer programming and software engineering, written by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas and published in October 1999. [1] [2] [3] It is used as a textbook in related university courses. [4] It was the first in a series of books under the label The Pragmatic Bookshelf.

  7. Variable (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_(computer_science)

    Depending on the type system of a programming language, variables may only be able to store a specified data type (e.g. integer or string). Alternatively, a datatype may be associated only with the current value, allowing a single variable to store anything supported by the programming language. Variables are the containers for storing the values.

  8. Multiple correspondence analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_correspondence...

    The Burt table is the symmetric matrix of all two-way cross-tabulations between the categorical variables, and has an analogy to the covariance matrix of continuous variables. Analyzing the Burt table is a more natural generalization of simple correspondence analysis , and individuals or the means of groups of individuals can be added as ...

  9. Function of a real variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_a_real_variable

    The physical and geometric interpretation of dr(t)/dt is the "velocity" of a point-like particle moving along the path r(t), treating r as the spatial position vector coordinates parametrized by time t, and is a vector tangent to the space curve for all t in the instantaneous direction of motion.
