  2. Help:Advanced table formatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Advanced_table_formatting

    Instead, the harsh reality is that the tedious hand-editing of each cell, within a row, is often required as the fastest solution, in the long run. However, some text editors do allow a repetition-loop to be defined to locate and shift every 7th line or such, as a repeated pattern that could re-arrange the columns in a large table.

  3. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    MediaWiki stores rendered formulas in a cache so that the images of those formulas do not need to be created each time the page is opened by a user. To force the rerendering of all formulas of a page, you must open it with the getter variables action=purge&mathpurge=true. Imagine for example there is a wrong rendered formula in the article ...

  4. Wikipedia : Manual of Style/Text formatting

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Text_formatting

    Do not italicize (but do capitalize) taxa higher than genus (exceptions are below). Virus taxonomy is a partial exception; current scientific practice is to italicize all ranks of taxa (even those higher than genus; e.g., Ortervirales, an order, or Herpesviridae, a family). However, this should only be done in articles about viruses or virology ...

  5. Greater-than sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater-than_sign

    In mathematical writing, the greater-than sign is typically placed between two values being compared and signifies that the first number is greater than the second number. Examples of typical usage include 1.5 > 1 and 1 > −2. The less-than sign and greater-than sign always "point" to the smaller number.

  6. Order of approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_approximation

    In the zeroth-order example above, the quantity "a few" was given, but in the first-order example, the number "4" is given. A first-order approximation of a function (that is, mathematically determining a formula to fit multiple data points) will be a linear approximation, straight line with a slope: a polynomial of degree 1. For example:

  7. Filter (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_(higher-order_function)

    enum.select {block} enum is an Enumeration Rust: iterator.filter(pred) iterator is an Iterator and the filter method returns a new iterator; pred is a function (specifically FnMut) that receives the iterator's item and returns a bool: S, R: Filter(pred,array) array[pred(array)] In the second case, pred must be a vectorized function Scala: list ...

  8. Higher-order programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-order_programming

    Higher-order programming is a style of computer programming that uses software components, like functions, modules or objects, as values. It is usually instantiated with, or borrowed from, models of computation such as lambda calculus which make heavy use of higher-order functions. A programming language can be considered higher-order if ...

  9. Higher-order function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-order_function

    In this Erlang example, the higher-order function or_else/2 takes a list of functions (Fs) and argument (X). It evaluates the function F with the argument X as argument. If the function F returns false then the next function in Fs will be evaluated. If the function F returns {false, Y} then the next function in Fs with argument Y will be
