  2. Tupper's self-referential formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupper's_self-referential...

    The formula is a general-purpose method of decoding a bitmap stored in the constant , and it could be used to draw any other image. When applied to the unbounded positive range 0y {\displaystyle 0\leq y} , the formula tiles a vertical swath of the plane with a pattern that contains all possible 17-pixel-tall bitmaps.

  3. 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

  4. Inverse quadratic interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_quadratic...

    The asymptotic behaviour is very good: generally, the iterates x n converge fast to the root once they get close. However, performance is often quite poor if the initial values are not close to the actual root. For instance, if by any chance two of the function values f n−2, f n−1 and f n coincide, the algorithm fails completely. Thus ...

    Use of a user-defined function sq(x) in Microsoft Excel. The named variables x & y are identified in the Name Manager. The function sq is introduced using the Visual Basic editor supplied with Excel. Subroutine in Excel calculates the square of named column variable x read from the spreadsheet, and writes it into the named column variable y.

  7. Memento pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_pattern

    The caretaker is going to do something to the originator, but wants to be able to undo the change. The caretaker first asks the originator for a memento object. Then it does whatever operation (or sequence of operations) it was going to do. To roll back to the state before the operations, it returns the memento object to the originator.

  8. Overlap–save method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlap–save_method

    DFT N and IDFT N refer to the Discrete Fourier transform and its inverse, evaluated over N discrete points, and; L is customarily chosen such that N = L+M-1 is an integer power-of-2, and the transforms are implemented with the FFT algorithm, for efficiency.

  9. Closed-form expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-form_expression

    The quadratic formula =. is a closed form of the solutions to the general quadratic equation + + =. More generally, in the context of polynomial equations, a closed form of a solution is a solution in radicals; that is, a closed-form expression for which the allowed functions are only n th-roots and field operations (+,,, /).
