  2. Bracket (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Here, the numbers may come as close as they like to 12, including 11.999 and so forth (with any finite number of 9s), but 12.0 is not included. In some European countries, the notation [ 5 , 12 [ {\displaystyle [5,12[} is also used for this, and wherever comma is used as decimal separator , semicolon might be used as a separator to avoid ...

  3. Composite number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_number

    A number n that has more divisors than any x < n is a highly composite number (though the first two such numbers are 1 and 2). Composite numbers have also been called "rectangular numbers", but that name can also refer to the pronic numbers, numbers that are the product of two consecutive integers.

    A pronic number is a number that is the product of two consecutive integers, that is, a number of the form (+). [1] The study of these numbers dates back to Aristotle.They are also called oblong numbers, heteromecic numbers, [2] or rectangular numbers; [3] however, the term "rectangular number" has also been applied to the composite numbers.

    Such a number is a divisor of (⌈ / ⌉,,). The regular numbers are also called 5-smooth, indicating that their greatest prime factor is at most 5. [2] More generally, a k-smooth number is a number whose greatest prime factor is at most k. [3] The first few regular numbers are [2]

    Computable number: A real number whose digits can be computed by some algorithm. Period: A number which can be computed as the integral of some algebraic function over an algebraic domain. Definable number: A real number that can be defined uniquely using a first-order formula with one free variable in the language of set theory.

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.
