  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. Letter frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency

    The California Job Case was a compartmentalized box for printing in the 19th century, sizes corresponding to the commonality of letters. The frequency of letters in text has been studied for use in cryptanalysis, and frequency analysis in particular, dating back to the Arab mathematician al-Kindi (c. AD 801–873 ), who formally developed the method (the ciphers breakable by this technique go ...

    Codepoints U+035C–0362 are double diacritics, diacritic signs placed across two letters. Codepoints U+0363–036F are medieval superscript letter diacritics, letters written directly above other letters appearing in medieval Germanic manuscripts, but in some instances in use until as late as the 19th century.

    In other words, it is a sample of k elements from a set of n elements allowing for duplicates (i.e., with replacement) but disregarding different orderings (e.g. {2,1,2} = {1,2,2}). Associate an index to each element of S and think of the elements of S as types of objects, then we can let x i {\displaystyle x_{i}} denote the number of elements ...

  6. Row and column spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_spaces

    The column space of this matrix is the vector space spanned by the column vectors. In linear algebra, the column space (also called the range or image) of a matrix A is the span (set of all possible linear combinations) of its column vectors. The column space of a matrix is the image or range of the corresponding matrix transformation.

  7. Linear combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_combination

    Let the field K be the set R of real numbers, and let the vector space V be the Euclidean space R 3. Consider the vectors e 1 = (1,0,0), e 2 = (0,1,0) and e 3 = (0,0,1). Then any vector in R 3 is a linear combination of e 1, e 2, and e 3. To see that this is so, take an arbitrary vector (a 1,a 2,a 3) in R 3, and write:

  8. Linear subspace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_subspace

    The corresponding columns of the original matrix are a basis for the column space. See the article on column space for an example. This produces a basis for the column space that is a subset of the original column vectors. It works because the columns with pivots are a basis for the column space of the echelon form, and row reduction does not ...

  9. Vector space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_space

    The set of complex numbers C, numbers that can be written in the form x + iy for real numbers x and y where i is the imaginary unit, form a vector space over the reals with the usual addition and multiplication: (x + iy) + (a + ib) = (x + a) + i(y + b) and c ⋅ (x + iy) = (c ⋅ x) + i(c ⋅ y) for real numbers x, y, a, b and c. The various ...
