  2. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    The fractional part function has Fourier series expansion [19] {} = = ⁡ for x not an integer. At points of discontinuity, a Fourier series converges to a value that is the average of its limits on the left and the right, unlike the floor, ceiling and fractional part functions: for y fixed and x a multiple of y the Fourier series given ...

  3. Fractional part - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_part

    Graph of the fractional part of real numbers. The fractional part or decimal part [1] of a non‐negative real number is the excess beyond that number's integer part. The latter is defined as the largest integer not greater than x, called floor of x or ⌊ ⌋. Then, the fractional part can be formulated as a difference:

  4. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  5. Periodic function - Wikipedia

    for all values of x in the domain. A nonzero constant P for which this is the case is called a period of the function. If there exists a least positive [2] constant P with this property, it is called the fundamental period (also primitive period, basic period, or prime period.) Often, "the" period of a function is used to mean its fundamental ...

  6. Decimal separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator

    In mathematics and computing, a radix point or radix character is a symbol used in the display of numbers to separate the integer part of the value from its fractional part. In English and many other languages (including many that are written right-to-left), the integer part is at the left of the radix point, and the fraction part at the right ...

  7. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

    A duty cycle or power cycle is the fraction of one period in which a signal or system is active. [1] [2] [3] Duty cycle is commonly expressed as a percentage or a ratio. A period is the time it takes for a signal to complete an on-and-off cycle. As a formula, a duty cycle (%) may be expressed as: = % [2]

  8. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    x:= 0 y:= 0 x2:= 0 y2:= 0 while (x2 + y2 ≤ 4 and iteration < max_iteration) do y:= 2 * x * y + y0 x:= x2 - y2 + x0 x2:= x * x y2:= y * y iteration:= iteration + 1 Note that in the above pseudocode, 2 x y {\displaystyle 2xy} seems to increase the number of multiplications by 1, but since 2 is the multiplier the code can be optimized via ( x ...

  9. Thiele's interpolation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiele's_interpolation_formula

    In mathematics, Thiele's interpolation formula is a formula that defines a rational function from a finite set of inputs and their function values (). The problem of generating a function whose graph passes through a given set of function values is called interpolation .
