  2. Integer partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_partition

    Among the 22 partitions of the number 8, there are 6 that contain only odd parts: 7 + 1; 5 + 3; 5 + 1 + 1 + 1; 3 + 3 + 1 + 1; 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1; 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1; Alternatively, we could count partitions in which no number occurs more than once. Such a partition is called a partition with distinct parts. If we count the ...

  3. Quotition and partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotition_and_partition

    If there is a remainder in solving a partition problem, the parts will end up with unequal sizes. For example, if 52 cards are dealt out to 5 players, then 3 of the players will receive 10 cards each, and 2 of the players will receive 11 cards each, since 52 5 = 10 + 2 5 {\textstyle {\frac {52}{5}}=10+{\frac {2}{5}}} .

  4. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    The division with remainder or Euclidean division of two natural numbers provides an integer quotient, which is the number of times the second number is completely contained in the first number, and a remainder, which is the part of the first number that remains, when in the course of computing the quotient, no further full chunk of the size of ...

  5. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  6. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    Equal-cardinality partition is a variant in which both parts should have an equal number of items, in addition to having an equal sum. This variant is NP-hard too. [5]: SP12 Proof. Given a standard Partition instance with some n numbers, construct an Equal-Cardinality-Partition instance by adding n zeros. Clearly, the new instance has an equal ...

  7. Bell number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_number

    Partitions of sets can be arranged in a partial order, showing that each partition of a set of size n "uses" one of the partitions of a set of size n − 1. The 52 partitions of a set with 5 elements In general, B n {\displaystyle B_{n}} is the number of partitions of a set of size n {\displaystyle n} .

  8. Remainder - Wikipedia

    In this case, s is called the least absolute remainder. [3] As with the quotient and remainder, k and s are uniquely determined, except in the case where d = 2n and s = ± n. For this exception, we have: a = k⋅d + n = (k + 1)d − n. A unique remainder can be obtained in this case by some convention—such as always taking the positive value ...

  9. Dividing a square into similar rectangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_a_square_into...

    There is only one way (up to rotation and reflection) to divide a square into two similar rectangles.However, there are three distinct ways of partitioning a square into three similar rectangles: [1] [2]
