  2. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    For tie-breaking, Python 3 uses round to even: round(1.5) and round(2.5) both produce 2. [123] Versions before 3 used round-away-from-zero: round(0.5) is 1.0, round(-0.5) is −1.0. [124] Python allows Boolean expressions with multiple equality relations in a manner that is consistent with general use in mathematics.

    The last modification date stamp (and with DELWATCH 2.0+ also the file deletion date stamp, and since DOS 7.0+ optionally also the last access date stamp and creation date stamp), are stored in the directory entry with the year represented as an unsigned seven bit number (0–127), relative to 1980, and thereby unable to indicate any dates in ...

  4. Decimal time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time

    The time of day is sometimes represented as a decimal fraction of a day in science and computers. Standard 24-hour time is converted into a fractional day by dividing the number of hours elapsed since midnight by 24 to make a decimal fraction. Thus, midnight is 0.0 day, noon is 0.5 d, etc., which can be added to any type of date, including (all ...

  5. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Dates_and_numbers

    an abbreviated format from the "Acceptable date formats" table, provided the day and month elements are in the same order as in dates in the article body; the format expected in the citation style being used (but all-numeric date formats other than yyyy-mm-dd must still be avoided).

  6. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    One may also round half toward zero (or round half away from infinity) as opposed to the conventional round half away from zero. If the fractional part of x is exactly 0.5, then y = x − 0.5 if x is positive, and y = x + 0.5 if x is negative.

  7. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    By default, 1/3 rounds up, instead of down like double precision, because of the even number of bits in the significand. The bits of 1/3 beyond the rounding point are 1010... which is more than 1/2 of a unit in the last place. Encodings of qNaN and sNaN are not specified in IEEE 754 and implemented differently on different processors.

  8. Round-robin scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_scheduling

    A Round Robin preemptive scheduling example with quantum=3. Round-robin (RR) is one of the algorithms employed by process and network schedulers in computing. [1] [2] As the term is generally used, time slices (also known as time quanta) [3] are assigned to each process in equal portions and in circular order, handling all processes without priority (also known as cyclic executive).
