  2. Cutting stock problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_stock_problem

    The presence of length variations creates a 2-D problem, because waste can occur both width-wise and length-wise. [citation needed] The guillotine problem is another 2-D problem of cutting sheets into rectangles of specified sizes, however only cuts that continue all the way across each sheet are allowed. Industrial applications of this problem ...

    The correct number of sections for a fence is n − 1 if the fence is a free-standing line segment bounded by a post at each of its ends (e.g., a fence between two passageway gaps), n if the fence forms one complete, free-standing loop (e.g., enclosure accessible by surmounting, such as a boxing ring), or n + 1 if posts do not occur at the ends ...

    For tie-breaking, Python 3 uses round to even: round(1.5) and round(2.5) both produce 2. [124] Versions before 3 used round-away-from-zero: round(0.5) is 1.0, round(-0.5) is −1.0. [125] Python allows Boolean expressions with multiple equality relations in a manner that is consistent with general use in mathematics.

  5. Zen of Python - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zen_of_Python

    The Zen of Python is a collection of 19 "guiding principles" for writing computer programs that influence the design of the Python programming language. [1] Python code that aligns with these principles is often referred to as "Pythonic". [2] Software engineer Tim Peters wrote this set of principles and posted it on the Python mailing list in ...

    Parallel 2.x and 3.x releases then ceased, and Python 2.7 was the last release in the 2.x series. [30] In November 2014, it was announced that Python 2.7 would be supported until 2020, but users were encouraged to move to Python 3 as soon as possible. [31] Python 2.7 support ended on January 1, 2020, along with code freeze of 2

  7. Monty Hall problem - Wikipedia

    Thus the Bayes factor consists of the ratios ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ : 1 : 0 or equivalently 1 : 2 : 0, while the prior odds were 1 : 1 : 1. Thus, the posterior odds become equal to the Bayes factor 1 : 2 : 0. Given that the host opened door 3, the probability that the car is behind door 3 is zero, and it is twice as likely to be behind door 2 than door 1.

  8. Brute-force search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_search

    In computer science, brute-force search or exhaustive search, also known as generate and test, is a very general problem-solving technique and algorithmic paradigm that consists of systematically checking all possible candidates for whether or not each candidate satisfies the problem's statement.

  9. Constraint satisfaction problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Constraint_satisfaction_problem

    Constraint programming (CP) is the field of research that specifically focuses on tackling these kinds of problems. [1] [2] Additionally, the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT), satisfiability modulo theories (SMT), mixed integer programming (MIP) and answer set programming (ASP) are all fields of research focusing on the resolution of ...
