  2. Variadic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_function

    Lua functions may pass varargs to other functions the same way as other values using the return keyword. tables can be passed into variadic functions by using, in Lua version 5.2 or higher [9] table.unpack, or Lua 5.1 or lower [10] unpack. Varargs can be used as a table by constructing a table with the vararg as a value.

  3. Closest pair of points problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closest_pair_of_points_problem

    The closest pair of points problem or closest pair problem is a problem of computational geometry: given points in metric space, find a pair of points with the smallest distance between them. The closest pair problem for points in the Euclidean plane [ 1 ] was among the first geometric problems that were treated at the origins of the systematic ...

  4. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Curve fitting can involve either interpolation , [ 6 ] [ 7 ] where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing , [ 8 ] [ 9 ] in which a "smooth ...

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python 2.0 was released in 2000. Python 3.0, released in 2008, was a major revision not completely backward-compatible with earlier versions. Python 2.7.18, released in 2020, was the last release of Python 2. [37] Python consistently ranks as one of the most popular programming languages, and has gained widespread use in the machine learning ...

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  7. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    The denominator of this expression is the distance between P 1 and P 2. The numerator is twice the area of the triangle with its vertices at the three points, (x 0,y 0), P 1 and P 2. See: Area of a triangle § Using coordinates.

  8. Correlation function (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_function...

    By default, "correlation function" refers to the two-point autocorrelation function. The two-point autocorrelation function is a function of one variable (distance); it describes the excess probability of finding two galaxies separated by this distance (excess over and above the probability that would arise if the galaxies were simply scattered ...

  9. Line fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_fitting

    Line fitting is the process of constructing a straight line that has the best fit to a series of data points. Several methods exist, considering: Vertical distance: Simple linear regression; Resistance to outliers: Robust simple linear regression
