  2. Map (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_(higher-order_function)

    The map function originated in functional programming languages. The language Lisp introduced a map function called maplist [3] in 1959, with slightly different versions already appearing in 1958. [4] This is the original definition for maplist, mapping a function over successive rest lists:

  3. Positive and negative parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative_parts

    The converse, though, does not necessarily hold: for example, taking f as =, where V is a Vitali set, it is clear that f is not measurable, but its absolute value is, being a constant function. The positive part and negative part of a function are used to define the Lebesgue integral for a real-valued function.

  4. Lodash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lodash

    Lodash is a JavaScript library that helps programmers write more concise and maintainable JavaScript. It can be broken down into several main areas: Utilities: for simplifying common programming tasks such as determining type as well as simplifying math operations.

  5. NaN - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN

    The standard pow function and the integer exponent pown function define 0 0, 1 ∞, and ∞ 0 as 1. The powr function defines all three indeterminate forms as invalid operations and so returns NaN. Real operations with complex results, for example: The square root of a negative number. The logarithm of a negative number.

  6. Rational data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_data_type

    A variable or value of that type is usually represented as a fraction m/n where m and n are two integer numbers, either with a fixed or arbitrary precision.Depending on the language, the denominator n may be constrained to be non-zero, and the two numbers may be kept in reduced form (without any common divisors except 1).

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports normal floating point numbers, which are created when a dot is used in a literal (e.g. 1.1), when an integer and a floating point number are used in an expression, or as a result of some mathematical operations ("true division" via the / operator, or exponentiation with a negative exponent).

  8. Signed overpunch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_overpunch

    R indicates that the position will contain 0–9 if positive and {–R if negative. For example PICTURE 'Z99R' describes a four-character numeric field. The first position may be blank or will contain a digit 0–9. The next two positions will contain digits, and the fourth position will contain 0–9 for a positive number and {–R for ...

  9. Functional programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming

    The distinction between the two is subtle: "higher-order" describes a mathematical concept of functions that operate on other functions, while "first-class" is a computer science term for programming language entities that have no restriction on their use (thus first-class functions can appear anywhere in the program that other first-class ...
