  2. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    As a general rule, rounding is idempotent; [2] i.e., once a number has been rounded, rounding it again to the same precision will not change its value. Rounding functions are also monotonic; i.e., rounding two numbers to the same absolute precision will not exchange their order (but may give the same value).

  3. Positional notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

    A digit's value is the digit multiplied by the value of its place. Place values are the number of the base raised to the nth power, where n is the number of other digits between a given digit and the radix point.

  4. Sign-value notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign-value_notation

    A sign-value notation represents numbers using a sequence of numerals which each represent a distinct quantity, regardless of their position in the sequence. Sign-value notations are typically additive, subtractive, or multiplicative depending on their conventions for grouping signs together to collectively represent numbers.

  5. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal ...

  6. Order statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_statistic

    Important special cases of the order statistics are the minimum and maximum value of a sample, and (with some qualifications discussed below) the sample median and other sample quantiles. When using probability theory to analyze order statistics of random samples from a continuous distribution , the cumulative distribution function is used to ...

  7. Numerical digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_digit

    The decimal numeral system uses a decimal separator, commonly a period in English, or a comma in other European languages, [2] to denote the "ones place" or "units place", [3] [4] [5] which has a place value one. Each successive place to the left of this has a place value equal to the place value of the previous digit times the base. Similarly ...

  8. Stem-and-leaf display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-and-leaf_display

    The remaining digits to the left of the rounded place value are used as the stem. In this example, the leaf represents the ones place and the stem will represent the rest of the number (tens place and higher). The stem-and-leaf display is drawn with two columns separated by a vertical line. The stems are listed to the left of the vertical line.

  9. Round number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_number

    A round number is an integer that ends with one or more "0"s (zero-digit) in a given base. [1] So, 590 is rounder than 592, but 590 is less round than 600. In both technical and informal language, a round number is often interpreted to stand for a value or values near to the nominal value expressed.
