  2. Idempotence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotence

    Pressing the On button (green) is an idempotent operation, since it has the same effect whether done once or multiple times. Likewise, pressing Off is idempotent. Idempotence ( UK : / ˌ ɪ d ɛ m ˈ p oʊ t ən s / , [ 1 ] US : / ˈ aɪ d ə m -/ ) [ 2 ] is the property of certain operations in mathematics and computer science whereby they can ...

  3. Side effect (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side_effect_(computer_science)

    setx is idempotent because the second application of setx to 3 has the same effect on the system state as the first application: x was already set to 3 after the first application, and it is still set to 3 after the second application. A pure function is idempotent if it is idempotent in the mathematical sense. For instance, consider the ...

  4. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    Some programming languages (such as Java and Python) use "half up" to refer to round half away from zero rather than round half toward positive infinity. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] This method only requires checking one digit to determine rounding direction in two's complement and similar representations.

  5. JavaScript - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript

    JavaScript (/ ˈ dʒ ɑː v ə s k r ɪ p t / ⓘ), often abbreviated as JS, is a programming language and core technology of the World Wide Web, alongside HTML and CSS. Ninety-nine percent of websites use JavaScript on the client side for webpage behavior. [10] Web browsers have a dedicated JavaScript engine that executes the client code.

  6. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal ...

    W3Schools is a freemium educational website for learning coding online. [1] [2] Initially released in 1998, it derives its name from the World Wide Web but is not affiliated with the W3 Consortium. [3] [4] [unreliable source] W3Schools offers courses covering many aspects of web development. [5] W3Schools also publishes free HTML templates.

  8. Idempotent relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotent_relation

    In mathematics, an idempotent binary relation is a binary relation R on a set X (a subset of Cartesian product X × X) for which the composition of relations R ∘ R is the same as R. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This notion generalizes that of an idempotent function to relations.

  9. Boolean ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_ring

    The maximal ring of quotients Q(R) (in the sense of Utumi and Lambek) of a Boolean ring R is a Boolean ring, since every partial endomorphism is idempotent. [ 6 ] Every prime ideal P in a Boolean ring R is maximal : the quotient ring R / P is an integral domain and also a Boolean ring, so it is isomorphic to the field F 2 , which shows the ...
