2. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

   On the right Nicomachus's example with numbers 49 and 21 resulting in their GCD of 7 (derived from Heath 1908:300). In mathematics, the Euclidean algorithm, [note 1] or Euclid's algorithm, is an efficient method for computing the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two integers (numbers), the largest number that divides them both without a remainder.

3. Zermelo's theorem (game theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zermelo's_theorem_(game...

   When applied to chess, Zermelo's theorem states "either White can force a win, or Black can force a win, or both sides can force at least a draw". [2][3] Zermelo's algorithm is a cornerstone algorithm in game-theory; however, it can also be applied in areas outside of finite games. Apart from chess, Zermelo's theorem is applied across all areas ...

4. Packing problems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

   Packing problems are a class of optimization problems in mathematics that involve attempting to pack objects together into containers. The goal is to either pack a single container as densely as possible or pack all objects using as few containers as possible. Many of these problems can be related to real-life packaging, storage and ...

5. Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_algorithm

   A multiplication algorithm is an algorithm (or method) to multiply two numbers. Depending on the size of the numbers, different algorithms are more efficient than others. Numerous algorithms are known and there has been much research into the topic. The oldest and simplest method, known since antiquity as long multiplication or grade-school ...

6. Algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm

   In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm (/ ˈælɡərɪðəm / ⓘ) is a finite sequence of mathematically rigorous instructions, typically used to solve a class of specific problems or to perform a computation. [ 1 ] Algorithms are used as specifications for performing calculations and data processing.

7. Standard algorithms - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_algorithms

   For computer algorithms, see List of algorithms. In elementary arithmetic, a standard algorithm or method is a specific method of computation which is conventionally taught for solving particular mathematical problems. These methods vary somewhat by nation and time, but generally include exchanging, regrouping, long division, and long ...
