  2. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    Starting with Python 3.12, the built-in "sum()" function uses the Neumaier summation. [ 25 ] In the Julia language, the default implementation of the sum function does pairwise summation for high accuracy with good performance, [ 26 ] but an external library provides an implementation of Neumaier's variant named sum_kbn for the cases when ...

  3. Meissel–Lehmer algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meissel–Lehmer_algorithm

    where ⌊ x ⌋ is the floor function, which denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x and the p i run over all primes ≤ √ x. [1] [2] Since the evaluation of this sum formula becomes more and more complex and confusing for large x, Meissel tried to simplify the counting of the numbers in the Sieve of Eratosthenes. He and Lehmer ...

  4. Summation by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_by_parts

    The formula for an integration by parts is () ′ = [() ()] ′ (). Beside the boundary conditions , we notice that the first integral contains two multiplied functions, one which is integrated in the final integral ( g ′ {\displaystyle g'} becomes g {\displaystyle g} ) and one which is differentiated ( f {\displaystyle f} becomes f ...

  5. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    The summation of an explicit sequence is denoted as a succession of additions. For example, summation of [1, 2, 4, 2] is denoted 1 + 2 + 4 + 2, and results in 9, that is, 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 9. Because addition is associative and commutative, there is no need for parentheses, and the result is the same irrespective of the order of the summands ...

  6. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  7. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  8. Boolean satisfiability problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_satisfiability_problem

    In contrast, no renaming of (x 1 ∨ ¬x 2 ∨ ¬x 3) ∧ (¬x 1 ∨ x 2 ∨ x 3) ∧ ¬x 1 leads to a Horn formula. Checking the existence of such a replacement can be done in linear time; therefore, the satisfiability of such formulae is in P as it can be solved by first performing this replacement and then checking the satisfiability of the ...

  9. Ewald summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewald_summation

    Ewald summation is a special case of the Poisson summation formula, replacing the summation of interaction energies in real space with an equivalent summation in Fourier space. In this method, the long-range interaction is divided into two parts: a short-range contribution, and a long-range contribution which does not have a singularity.
