  2. Cutting stock problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_stock_problem

    Cutting-stock problems can be classified in several ways. [1] One way is the dimensionality of the cutting: the above example illustrates a one-dimensional (1D) problem; other industrial applications of 1D occur when cutting pipes, cables, and steel bars. Two-dimensional (2D) problems are encountered in furniture, clothing and glass production.

  3. Dedekind cut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dedekind_cut

    Similarly, every cut of reals is identical to the cut produced by a specific real number (which can be identified as the smallest element of the B set). In other words, the number line where every real number is defined as a Dedekind cut of rationals is a complete continuum without any further gaps.

  4. Stencil (numerical analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stencil_(numerical_analysis)

    The Crank–Nicolson stencil for a 1D problem. In mathematics, especially the areas of numerical analysis concentrating on the numerical solution of partial differential equations, a stencil is a geometric arrangement of a nodal group that relate to the point of interest by using a numerical approximation routine.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Professor

    The Little Professor is a backwards-functioning calculator designed for children ages 5 to 9. Instead of providing the answer to a mathematical expression entered by the user, it generates unsolved expressions and prompts the user for the answer.

  6. One-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-dimensional_space

    In physical space, a 1D subspace is called a "linear dimension" (rectilinear or curvilinear), with units of length (e.g., metre). In algebraic geometry there are several structures that are one-dimensional spaces but are usually referred to by more specific terms. Any field is a one-dimensional vector space over itself.

  7. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  8. Cutting sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_sequence

    The Fibonacci word is an example of a Sturmian word.The start of the cutting sequence shown here illustrates the start of the word 0100101001. In digital geometry, a cutting sequence is a sequence of symbols whose elements correspond to the individual grid lines crossed ("cut") as a curve crosses a square grid.

  9. Lazy caterer's sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_caterer's_sequence

    The maximum number of pieces from consecutive cuts are the numbers in the Lazy Caterer's Sequence. When a circle is cut n times to produce the maximum number of pieces, represented as p = f (n), the n th cut must be considered; the number of pieces before the last cut is f (n − 1), while the number of pieces added by the last cut is n.
