  2. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

    The standard procedure for multiplication of two n-digit numbers requires a number of elementary operations proportional to , or () in big-O notation. Andrey Kolmogorov conjectured that the traditional algorithm was asymptotically optimal , meaning that any algorithm for that task would require Ω ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle \Omega (n^{2 ...

  3. Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_algorithm

    k 1 = c · (a + b) k 2 = a · (d − c) k 3 = b · (c + d) Real part = k 1 − k 3 Imaginary part = k 1 + k 2. This algorithm uses only three multiplications, rather than four, and five additions or subtractions rather than two. If a multiply is more expensive than three adds or subtracts, as when calculating by hand, then there is a gain in speed.

    The program is solvable in polynomial time if the graph has all undirected or all directed edges. Variants include the rural postman problem. [3]: ND25, ND27 Clique cover problem [2] [3]: GT17 Clique problem [2] [3]: GT19 Complete coloring, a.k.a. achromatic number [3]: GT5 Cycle rank; Degree-constrained spanning tree [3]: ND1

  5. Toom–Cook multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toom–Cook_multiplication

    The Karatsuba algorithm is equivalent to Toom-2, where the number is split into two smaller ones. It reduces four multiplications to three and so operates at Θ( n log(3)/log(2) ) ≈ Θ( n 1.58 ). Although the exponent e can be set arbitrarily close to 1 by increasing k , the constant term in the function grows very rapidly.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity...

    Graphs of functions commonly used in the analysis of algorithms, showing the number of operations versus input size for each function. The following tables list the computational complexity of various algorithms for common mathematical operations.

  7. Divide-and-conquer algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide-and-conquer_algorithm

    For example, one can add N numbers either by a simple loop that adds each datum to a single variable, or by a D&C algorithm called pairwise summation that breaks the data set into two halves, recursively computes the sum of each half, and then adds the two sums. While the second method performs the same number of additions as the first and pays ...

  8. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    C mathematical operations are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing basic mathematical functions. [1] [2] All functions use floating-point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different, albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions.

  9. Carry-less product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry-less_product

    So the carry-less product of a and b would be c = 101100011101100 2. For every bit set in the number a, the number b is shifted to the left as many bits as indicated by the position of the bit in a. All these shifted versions are then combined using an exclusive or, instead of the regular addition which would be used for regular long ...
