  2. Multiply-with-carry pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

    In such a case, for b= 2 32 and r = 1, the period will be ab r /21, approaching 2 63, which in practice may be an acceptably large subset of the number of possible 32-bit pairs (x, c). More specifically, in such a case, the order of any element divides p − 1, and there are only four possible divisors: 1, 2, ab r /21, or ab r − 2.

    For 8-bit integers the table of quarter squares will have 2 9 −1=511 entries (one entry for the full range 0..510 of possible sums, the differences using only the first 256 entries in range 0..255) or 2 9 −1=511 entries (using for negative differences the technique of 2-complements and 9-bit masking, which avoids testing the sign of ...

  4. Booth's multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booth's_multiplication...

    Booth's multiplication algorithm is a multiplication algorithm that multiplies two signed binary numbers in two's complement notation. The algorithm was invented by Andrew Donald Booth in 1950 while doing research on crystallography at Birkbeck College in Bloomsbury, London. [1] Booth's algorithm is of interest in the study of computer ...

  5. Matrix multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication...

    It is based on a way of multiplying two 2 × 2-matrices which require only 7 multiplications (instead of the usual 8), at the expense of several additional addition and subtraction operations. Applying this recursively gives an algorithm with a multiplicative cost of O ( n log 2 ⁡ 7 ) ≈ O ( n 2.807 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{\log _{2}7})\approx ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    NumPy (pronounced / ˈ n ʌ m p aɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [3]

  7. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

    [1] [2] [3] It is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that reduces the multiplication of two n-digit numbers to three multiplications of n/2-digit numbers and, by repeating this reduction, to at most ⁡ single-digit multiplications.

    Introduced in Python 2.2 as an optional feature and finalized in version 2.3, generators are Python's mechanism for lazy evaluation of a function that would otherwise return a space-prohibitive or computationally intensive list. This is an example to lazily generate the prime numbers:

  9. Exponentiation by squaring - Wikipedia

    For example, when computing x 2 k −1, the binary method requires k−1 multiplications and k−1 squarings. However, one could perform k squarings to get x 2 k and then multiply by x −1 to obtain x 2 k −1. To this end we define the signed-digit representation of an integer n in radix b as
