  2. Wildcard (Java) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_(Java)

    In the Java programming language, the wildcard? is a special kind of type argument [1] that controls the type safety of the use of generic (parameterized) types. [2] It can be used in variable declarations and instantiations as well as in method definitions, but not in the definition of a generic type.

    The analysis of errors computed using the global positioning system is important for understanding how GPS works, and for knowing what magnitude errors should be expected.

  5. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables ⁡ (+) = ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

  6. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    [clarification needed] The extra cost includes incrementing and decrementing the stack pointer (and, in some architectures, checking for stack overflow), and accessing the local variables and parameters by frame-relative addresses, instead of absolute addresses. The cost may be realized in increased execution time, or increased processor ...

  7. Argument of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_of_a_function

    In mathematics, an argument of a function is a value provided to obtain the function's result. It is also called an independent variable. [1] For example, the binary function (,) = + has two arguments, and , in an ordered pair (,).

  8. Function of several real variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_several_real...

    The image of a function f(x 1, x 2, …, x n) is the set of all values of f when the n-tuple (x 1, x 2, …, x n) runs in the whole domain of f.For a continuous (see below for a definition) real-valued function which has a connected domain, the image is either an interval or a single value.

  9. Leading-order term - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading-order_term

    Consider the equation y = x 3 + 5x + 0.1. For five different values of x, the table shows the sizes of the four terms in this equation, and which terms are leading-order. As x increases further, the leading-order terms stay as x 3 and y, but as x decreases and then becomes more and more negative, which terms are leading-order again changes.
