Popular languages for input by humans and interpretation by computers include TeX [1] /LaTeX [2] and eqn. [3] Computer algebra systems such as Macsyma, Mathematica (Wolfram Language), Maple, and MATLAB each have their own syntax. When the purpose is informal communication with other humans, syntax is often ad hoc, sometimes called "ASCII math ...

C99 for code examples demonstrating access and use of IEEE 754 features Floating-point arithmetic , for history, design rationale and example usage of IEEE 754 features Fixed-point arithmetic , for an alternative approach at computation with rational numbers (especially beneficial when the exponent range is known, fixed, or bound at compile time)
Little and Steve Bangert rewrote the code for MATLAB in C while they were colleagues at an engineering firm. [3] [5] They founded MathWorks along with Moler in 1984, [5] with Little running it out of his house in Portola Valley, California. [6] Little would mail diskettes in baggies (food storage bags) to the first customers. [7]
In linear algebra, the Hermite normal form is an analogue of reduced echelon form for matrices over the integers Z.Just as reduced echelon form can be used to solve problems about the solution to the linear system Ax=b where x is in R n, the Hermite normal form can solve problems about the solution to the linear system Ax=b where this time x is restricted to have integer coordinates only.
A formula editor is a computer program that is used to typeset mathematical formulas and mathematical expressions. Formula editors typically serve two purposes: They allow word processing and publication of technical content either for print publication, or to generate raster images for web pages or screen presentations.
Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.
This algorithm can easily be adapted to compute the variance of a finite population: simply divide by n instead of n − 1 on the last line.. Because SumSq and (Sum×Sum)/n can be very similar numbers, cancellation can lead to the precision of the result to be much less than the inherent precision of the floating-point arithmetic used to perform the computation.
