  2. Fibonacci search technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_search_technique

    Let k be defined as an element in F, the array of Fibonacci numbers. n = F m is the array size. If n is not a Fibonacci number, let F m be the smallest number in F that is greater than n. The array of Fibonacci numbers is defined where F k+2 = F k+1 + F k, when k ≥ 0, F 1 = 1, and F 0 = 1. To test whether an item is in the list of ordered ...

    For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures. This list of terms was originally derived from the index of that document, and is in the public domain, as it was compiled by a Federal Government employee as part of a Federal Government work. Some of the terms defined are:

A SWB generator is the basis for the RANLUX generator, [19] widely used e.g. for particle physics simulations. Maximally periodic reciprocals: 1992 R. A. J. Matthews [20]

  5. Combinatorics on words - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorics_on_words

    Combinatorics on words is a fairly new field of mathematics, branching from combinatorics, which focuses on the study of words and formal languages. The subject looks at letters or symbols, and the sequences they form. Combinatorics on words affects various areas of mathematical study, including algebra and computer science. There have been a ...

  6. Fibonacci coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_coding

    To encode an integer N: . Find the largest Fibonacci number equal to or less than N; subtract this number from N, keeping track of the remainder.; If the number subtracted was the i th Fibonacci number F(i), put a 1 in place i − 2 in the code word (counting the left most digit as place 0).

  7. Algorithmic Combinatorics on Partial Words - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_Combinatorics...

    A partial word is a string whose characters may either belong to a given alphabet or be a wildcard character.Such a word can represent a set of strings over the alphabet without wildcards, by allowing each wildcard character to be replaced by any single character of the alphabet, independently of the replacements of the other wildcard characters.

  8. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    With the exceptions of 1, 8 and 144 (F 1 = F 2, F 6 and F 12) every Fibonacci number has a prime factor that is not a factor of any smaller Fibonacci number (Carmichael's theorem). [56] As a result, 8 and 144 ( F 6 and F 12 ) are the only Fibonacci numbers that are the product of other Fibonacci numbers.

  9. Generalizations of Fibonacci numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizations_of...

    The usual Fibonacci numbers are a Fibonacci sequence of order 2. The cases n = 3 {\displaystyle n=3} and n = 4 {\displaystyle n=4} have been thoroughly investigated. The number of compositions of nonnegative integers into parts that are at most n {\displaystyle n} is a Fibonacci sequence of order n {\displaystyle n} .
