  2. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    The simplest checksum algorithm is the so-called longitudinal parity check, which breaks the data into "words" with a fixed number n of bits, and then computes the bitwise exclusive or (XOR) of all those words. The result is appended to the message as an extra word.

  3. Checkbox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkbox

    A checkbox (check box, tickbox, tick box) is a graphical widget that allows the user to make a binary choice, i.e. a choice between one of two possible mutually exclusive options. For example, the user may have to answer 'yes' (checked) or 'no' (not checked) on a simple yes/no question .

  4. Primality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primality_test

    A primality test is an algorithm for determining whether an input number is prime.Among other fields of mathematics, it is used for cryptography.Unlike integer factorization, primality tests do not generally give prime factors, only stating whether the input number is prime or not.

  5. Equals sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equals_sign

    In PHP, the triple equal sign, ===, denotes value and type equality, [7] meaning that not only do the two expressions evaluate to equal values, but they are also of the same data type. For instance, the expression 0 == false is true, but 0 === false is not, because the number 0 is an integer value whereas false is a Boolean value.

  6. Parity-check matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity-check_matrix

    Formally, a parity check matrix H of a linear code C is a generator matrix of the dual code, C ⊥. This means that a codeword c is in C if and only if the matrix-vector product Hc ⊤ = 0 (some authors [1] would write this in an equivalent form, cH ⊤ = 0.) The rows of a parity check matrix are the coefficients of the parity check equations. [2]

  7. Goldbach's conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldbach's_conjecture

    Number of ways to write an even number n as the sum of two primes (sequence A002375 in the OEIS) A very crude version of the heuristic probabilistic argument (for the strong form of the Goldbach conjecture) is as follows. The prime number theorem asserts that an integer m selected at random has roughly a ⁠ 1 / ln m ⁠ chance of being

  8. Help:Wikitext - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext

    Group names (terms) are in bold. Values (definitions) are indented. Each group must include one or more definitions. For a single or first value, the : can be placed on the same line after ; – but subsequent values must be placed on separate lines. Do not use a semicolon (;) simply to bold a line without defining a value using a colon (:).

  9. Sampling (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(statistics)

    Formulas, tables, and power function charts are well known approaches to determine sample size. Steps for using sample size tables: Postulate the effect size of interest, α, and β. Check sample size table [20] Select the table corresponding to the selected α; Locate the row corresponding to the desired power
