  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  3. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

    Excel offers many user interface tweaks over the earliest electronic spreadsheets; however, the essence remains the same as in the original spreadsheet software, VisiCalc: the program displays cells organized in rows and columns, and each cell may contain data or a formula, with relative or absolute references to other cells.

  4. List of limits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_limits

    In general, any infinite series is the limit of its partial sums. For example, an analytic function is the limit of its Taylor series, within its radius of convergence. = =. This is known as the harmonic series. [6]

    Choose a row r such that A r, c = 1 (nondeterministically). Include row r in the partial solution. For each column j such that A r, j = 1, for each row i such that A i, j = 1, delete row i from matrix A. delete column j from matrix A. Repeat this algorithm recursively on the reduced matrix A.

    Widely used in many programs, e.g. it is used in Excel 2003 and later versions for the Excel function RAND [8] and it was the default generator in the language Python up to version 2.2.

    they can be expressed in terms of smaller integers d and e using Euclid's formula u = 2de v = d 2 − e 2 x = d 2 + e 2. Since u = 2m 2 = 2de, and since d and e are coprime, they must be squares themselves, d = g 2 and e = h 2. This gives the equation v = d 2 − e 2 = g 4 − h 4 = k 2. The solution (g, h, k) is another solution to the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    Animation of Gaussian elimination. Red row eliminates the following rows, green rows change their order. In mathematics, Gaussian elimination, also known as row reduction, is an algorithm for solving systems of linear equations. It consists of a sequence of row-wise operations performed on the corresponding matrix of coefficients.

    This last non-simple continued fraction (sequence A110185 in the OEIS), equivalent to = [;,,,,,...], has a quicker convergence rate compared to Euler's continued fraction formula [clarification needed] and is a special case of a general formula for the exponential function:
