SPARSE contains TALLY, the class of unary languages, since these have at most one string of any one length. Although not all languages in P/poly are sparse, there is a polynomial-time Turing reduction from any language in P/poly to a sparse language. [1] Fortune showed in 1979 that if any sparse language is co-NP-complete, then P = NP. [2]
Sparse may refer to: Sparse, a software static analysis tool; Sparse language, a type of formal language in computational complexity theory; Sparse matrix, in numerical analysis, a matrix populated primarily with zeros; Sparse file, a computer file mostly empty; Sparse network, a network with many fewer connections than possible
This is a set of lists of English personal and place names having spellings that are counterintuitive to their pronunciation because the spelling does not accord with conventional pronunciation associations. Many of these are degenerations in the pronunciation of names that originated in other languages.
The dialect is characterised by an "economy of words" and sparse pronouns, she continues. "We don't waste time to say 'not at all'; we just say 'tarl'. Instead of 'come here', we say 'cumyah'.
A simple unweighted network of size is called sparse if the number of links in it is much smaller than the maximum possible number of links : [1] = (). In any given (real) network, the number of nodes N and links M are just two numbers, therefore the meaning of the much smaller sign (above) is purely colloquial and informal, and so are statements like "many real networks are sparse."
In mathematics, a sparse polynomial (also lacunary polynomial [1] or fewnomial [2]) is a polynomial that has far fewer terms than its degree and number of variables would suggest. For example, x 10 + 3 x 3 + 1 {\displaystyle x^{10}+3x^{3}+1} is a sparse polynomial, as it is a trinomial with a degree of 10 {\displaystyle 10} .
Public health experts are warning of a ‘quad-demic’ this winter. Here’s where flu, COVID, RSV, and norovirus are spreading
Sparse is better than dense. Readability counts. Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules. Although practicality beats purity. Errors should never pass silently. Unless explicitly silenced. In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess. There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it. [c]
