  2. Summation by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_by_parts

    It may be used to prove Nicomachus's theorem that the sum of the first cubes equals the square of the sum of the first positive integers. [2] Summation by parts is frequently used to prove Abel's theorem and Dirichlet's test.

  3. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The algorithm performs summation with two accumulators: sum holds the sum, and c accumulates the parts not assimilated into sum, to nudge the low-order part of sum the next time around. Thus the summation proceeds with "guard digits" in c , which is better than not having any, but is not as good as performing the calculations with double the ...

  4. Data transformation (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_transformation...

    Code generation is the process of generating executable code (e.g. SQL, Python, R, or other executable instructions) that will transform the data based on the desired and defined data mapping rules. [4] Typically, the data transformation technologies generate this code [5] based on the definitions or metadata defined by the developers.

  5. Method chaining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_chaining

    Method chaining is a common syntax for invoking multiple method calls in object-oriented programming languages. Each method returns an object, allowing the calls to be chained together in a single statement without requiring variables to store the intermediate results.

  6. Renewal theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewal_theory

    The renewal process is a generalization of the Poisson process. In essence, the Poisson process is a continuous-time Markov process on the positive integers (usually starting at zero) which has independent exponentially distributed holding times at each integer i {\displaystyle i} before advancing to the next integer, i + 1 {\displaystyle i+1} .

  7. Online analytical processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_analytical_processing

    Cubes (OLAP server) is another lightweight open-source toolkit implementation of OLAP functionality in the Python programming language with built-in ROLAP. ClickHouse is a fairly new column-oriented DBMS focusing on fast processing and response times. DuckDB [32] is an in-process SQL OLAP [33] database management system.

  8. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  9. Continuation-passing style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation-passing_style

    The translations shown above show that CPS is a global transformation. The direct-style factorial takes, as might be expected, a single argument; the CPS factorial& takes two: the argument and a continuation. Any function calling a CPS-ed function must either provide a new continuation or pass its own; any calls from a CPS-ed function to a non ...
