  2. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    If a ≡ +3, X alternates ±1↔±3, while if a ≡ −3, X alternates ±1↔∓3 (all modulo 8). It can be shown that this form is equivalent to a generator with modulus m/4 and c ≠ 0. [1] A more serious issue with the use of a power-of-two modulus is that the low bits have a shorter period than the high bits.

  3. Universal Remote Console - Wikipedia

    Universal Remote Console (URC) is a standard for defining alternative user interfaces for devices that can be used remotely. In the vocabulary of URC, the remote ...

  4. Universal remote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_remote

    Harmony 670, a universal remote. A universal remote is a remote control that can be programmed to operate various brands of one or more types of consumer electronics devices. . Low-end universal remotes can only control a set number of devices determined by their manufacturer, while mid- and high-end universal remotes allow the user to program in new control codes to the re

  5. Corecursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corecursion

    In computer science, corecursion is a type of operation that is dual to recursion.Whereas recursion works analytically, starting on data further from a base case and breaking it down into smaller data and repeating until one reaches a base case, corecursion works synthetically, starting from a base case and building it up, iteratively producing data further removed from a base case.

  6. The Power of 10: Rules for Developing Safety-Critical Code

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_10:_Rules_for...

    Avoid complex flow constructs, such as goto and recursion. All loops must have fixed bounds. This prevents runaway code. Avoid heap memory allocation. Restrict functions to a single printed page. Use a minimum of two runtime assertions per function. Restrict the scope of data to the smallest possible.

  7. Lehmer random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehmer_random_number_generator

    Most commonly, the modulus is chosen as a prime number, making the choice of a coprime seed trivial (any 0 < X 0 < m will do). This produces the best-quality output, but introduces some implementation complexity, and the range of the output is unlikely to match the desired application; converting to the desired range requires an additional multiplication.

  8. Mutual recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_recursion

    The most important basic example of a datatype that can be defined by mutual recursion is a tree, which can be defined mutually recursively in terms of a forest (a list of trees). Symbolically: f: [t[1], ..., t[k]] t: v f A forest f consists of a list of trees, while a tree t consists of a pair of a value v and a forest f (its children). This ...

  9. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A multiple of a number is the product of that number and an integer. For example, 10 is a multiple of 5 because 5 × 2 = 10, so 10 is divisible by 5 and 2. Because 10 is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both 5 and 2, it is the least common multiple of 5 and 2.
