    One of the early APL line terminals (line-mode operation only, not full screen) was the Texas Instruments TI Model 745 (c. 1977) with the full APL character set [48] which featured half and full duplex telecommunications modes, for interacting with an APL time-sharing service or remote mainframe to run a remote computer job, remote job entry (RJE).

    The library routines would also be better than average implementations; matrix algorithms, for example, might use full pivoting to get better numerical accuracy. The library routines would also have more efficient routines. For example, a library may include a program to solve a matrix that is upper triangular.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coding_interview

    A coding interview is intended to seek out creative thinkers and those who can adapt their solutions to rapidly changing and dynamic scenarios. [citation needed] Typical questions that a candidate might be asked to answer during the second-round interview include: [7] Design a GPS navigation unit for a hiker.

  8. Generalized estimating equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_estimating...

    The term "variance structure" refers to the algebraic form of the covariance matrix between outcomes, Y, in the sample. Examples of variance structure specifications include independence, exchangeable, autoregressive, stationary m-dependent, and unstructured.

  9. Oversampling and undersampling in data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oversampling_and_under...

    Overabundance of already collected data became an issue only in the "Big Data" era, and the reasons to use undersampling are mainly practical and related to resource costs. Specifically, while one needs a suitably large sample size to draw valid statistical conclusions, the data must be cleaned before it can be used. Cleansing typically ...
