  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

  3. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spreadsheet

    In 2006 Google launched a beta release spreadsheet web application, this is currently known as Google Sheets and one of the applications provided in Google Drive. [16] A spreadsheet consists of a table of cells arranged into rows and columns and referred to by the X and Y locations. X locations, the columns, are normally represented by letters ...

  4. Truncation (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(statistics)

    Truncation can be applied to any probability distribution.This will usually lead to a new distribution, not one within the same family. Thus, if a random variable X has F(x) as its distribution function, the new random variable Y defined as having the distribution of X truncated to the semi-open interval (a, b] has the distribution function

  5. Truncated distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_distribution

    In statistics, a truncated distribution is a conditional distribution that results from restricting the domain of some other probability distribution.Truncated distributions arise in practical statistics in cases where the ability to record, or even to know about, occurrences is limited to values which lie above or below a given threshold or within a specified range.

  6. ITP method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITP_Method

    In numerical analysis, the ITP method (Interpolate Truncate and Project method) is the first root-finding algorithm that achieves the superlinear convergence of the secant method [1] while retaining the optimal [2] worst-case performance of the bisection method. [3]

  7. Truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation

    Truncation of positive real numbers can be done using the floor function. Given a number x ∈ R + {\displaystyle x\in \mathbb {R} _{+}} to be truncated and n ∈ N 0 {\displaystyle n\in \mathbb {N} _{0}} , the number of elements to be kept behind the decimal point, the truncated value of x is

  8. Truncated binary encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_binary_encoding

    It takes 3 bits to encode n using straightforward binary encoding, hence 2 3 − n = 8 − 5 = 3 are unused.. In numerical terms, to send a value x, where 0 ≤ x < n, and where there are 2 k ≤ n < 2 k+1 symbols, there are u = 2 k+1 − n unused entries when the alphabet size is rounded up to the nearest power of two.

  9. Clamp (function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clamp_(function)

    Although spreadsheets like Excel, Open Office Calc, or Google Sheets don't provide a clamping function directly, the same effect can be achieved by using functions like MAX & MIN together, by MEDIAN, [8] [9] or with cell function macros. [10] When attempting to do a clamp where the input is an array, other methods must be used. [11]
