2. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

   Algebraic functions are functions that can be expressed as the solution of a polynomial equation with integer coefficients. Polynomials: Can be generated solely by addition, multiplication, and raising to the power of a positive integer. Constant function: polynomial of degree zero, graph is a horizontal straight line

3. Operation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_(mathematics)

   For example, in the real numbers, the squaring operation only produces non-negative numbers; the codomain is the set of real numbers, but the range is the non-negative numbers. Operations can involve dissimilar objects: a vector can be multiplied by a scalar to form another vector (an operation known as scalar multiplication ), [ 13 ] and the ...

4. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   For example, multiplication is granted a higher precedence than addition, and it has been this way since the introduction of modern algebraic notation. [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9.

5. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

   In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

6. Multiplicative function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_function

   In number theory, a multiplicative function is an arithmetic function f(n) of a positive integer n with the property that f(1) = 1 and = () whenever a and b are coprime.. An arithmetic function f(n) is said to be completely multiplicative (or totally multiplicative) if f(1) = 1 and f(ab) = f(a)f(b) holds for all positive integers a and b, even when they are not coprime.

7. Binary operation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_operation

   Typical examples of binary operations are the addition (+) and multiplication of numbers and matrices as well as composition of functions on a single set. For instance, For instance, On the set of real numbers R {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} } , f ( a , b ) = a + b {\displaystyle f(a,b)=a+b} is a binary operation since the sum of two real numbers ...
