  2. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.

  3. Decimal data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_data_type

    C# has a built-in data type decimal consisting of 128 bits resulting in 28–29 significant digits. It has an approximate range of ±1.0 × 10 −28 to ±7.9228 × 10 28. [1] Starting with Python 2.4, Python's standard library includes a Decimal class in the module decimal. [2] Ruby's standard library includes a BigDecimal class in the module ...

  4. Primitive data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_data_type

    The void type and null pointer type nullptr_t in C++11 and C23; Characters and strings (see below) Tuple in Standard ML, Python, Scala, Swift, Elixir; List in Common Lisp, Python, Scheme, Haskell; Fixed-point number with a variety of precisions and a programmer-selected scale. Complex number in C99, Fortran, Common Lisp, Python, D, Go. This is ...

  5. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    The "decimal" data type of the C# and Python programming languages, and the decimal formats of the IEEE 754-2008 standard, are designed to avoid the problems of binary floating-point representations when applied to human-entered exact decimal values, and make the arithmetic always behave as expected when numbers are printed in decimal.

  6. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation

    0110 (decimal 6) AND 1011 (decimal 11) = 0010 (decimal 2) Because of this property, it becomes easy to check the parity of a binary number by checking the value of the lowest valued bit. Using the example above: 0110 (decimal 6) AND 0001 (decimal 1) = 0000 (decimal 0) Because 6 AND 1 is zero, 6 is divisible by two and therefore even.

  7. Integer literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_literal

    In computer science, an integer literal is a kind of literal for an integer whose value is directly represented in source code.For example, in the assignment statement x = 1, the string 1 is an integer literal indicating the value 1, while in the statement x = 0x10 the string 0x10 is an integer literal indicating the value 16, which is represented by 10 in hexadecimal (indicated by the 0x prefix).

  8. Signed zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_zero

    Signed zero is zero with an associated sign.In ordinary arithmetic, the number 0 does not have a sign, so that −0, +0 and 0 are equivalent. However, in computing, some number representations allow for the existence of two zeros, often denoted by −0 (negative zero) and +0 (positive zero), regarded as equal by the numerical comparison operations but with possible different behaviors in ...

  9. Integer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_overflow

    The register width of a processor determines the range of values that can be represented in its registers. Though the vast majority of computers can perform multiple-precision arithmetic on operands in memory, allowing numbers to be arbitrarily long and overflow to be avoided, the register width limits the sizes of numbers that can be operated on (e.g., added or subtracted) using a single ...
