  3. Borwein's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borwein's_algorithm

    Start by setting [4] = = = + Then iterate + = + + = (+) + + = (+ +) + + + Then p k converges quadratically to π; that is, each iteration approximately doubles the number of correct digits.The algorithm is not self-correcting; each iteration must be performed with the desired number of correct digits for π 's final result.

  4. Pattern search (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_search_(optimization)

    Example of convergence of a direct search method on the Broyden function. At each iteration, the pattern either moves to the point which best minimizes its objective function, or shrinks in size if no point is better than the current point, until the desired accuracy has been achieved, or the algorithm reaches a predetermined number of iterations.

  5. Divergence (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divergence_(computer_science)

    In computer science, a computation is said to diverge if it does not terminate or terminates in an exceptional state. [1]: 377 Otherwise it is said to converge.In domains where computations are expected to be infinite, such as process calculi, a computation is said to diverge if it fails to be productive (i.e. to continue producing an action within a finite amount of time).

  6. Limit comparison test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_comparison_test

    If diverges and converges, then necessarily =, that is, =. The essential content here is that in some sense the numbers a n {\displaystyle a_{n}} are larger than the numbers b n {\displaystyle b_{n}} .

  7. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

    In cryptography, a salt is random data fed as an additional input to a one-way function that hashes data, a password or passphrase. [1] Salting helps defend against attacks that use precomputed tables (e.g. rainbow tables), by vastly growing the size of table needed for a successful attack.

  8. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    A comparison of the convergence of gradient descent with optimal step size (in green) and conjugate vector (in red) for minimizing a quadratic function associated with a given linear system. Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2).

  9. Cauchy condensation test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy_condensation_test

    Here the series definitely converges for a > 1, and diverges for a < 1. When a = 1, the condensation transformation gives the series (⁡). The logarithms "shift to the left". So when a = 1, we have convergence for b > 1, divergence for b < 1. When b = 1 the value of c enters.
