  2. Odd–even sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddeven_sort

    The oddeven sort algorithm correctly sorts this data in passes. (A pass here is defined to be a full sequence of oddeven, or evenodd comparisons. The passes occur in order pass 1: oddeven, pass 2: evenodd, etc.) Proof: This proof is based loosely on one by Thomas Worsch. [6]

  3. Even–odd rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evenodd_rule

    The evenodd rule is an algorithm implemented in vector-based graphic software, [1] ... If this number is odd, the point is inside; if even, the point is outside.

  4. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

    All primes after 2 are odd. Even numbers are always 0, 2, or 4 more than a multiple of 6, while odd numbers are always 1, 3, or 5 more than a multiple of 6. ... Several computer algorithms for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_in_polygon

    This algorithm is sometimes also known as the crossing number algorithm or the evenodd rule algorithm, and was known as early as 1962. [3] The algorithm is based on a simple observation that if a point moves along a ray from infinity to the probe point and if it crosses the boundary of a polygon, possibly several times, then it alternately ...

  7. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    If n > 1, then there are just as many even permutations in S n as there are odd ones; [3] consequently, A n contains n!/2 permutations. (The reason is that if σ is even then (1 2)σ is odd, and if σ is odd then (1 2)σ is even, and these two maps are inverse to each other.) [3] A cycle is even if and only if its length is odd. This follows ...

  8. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    For instance, the UPC-A barcode for a box of tissues is "036000241457". The last digit is the check digit "7", and if the other numbers are correct then the check digit calculation must produce 7. Add the odd number digits: 0+6+0+2+1+5 = 14. Multiply the result by 3: 14 × 3 = 42. Add the even number digits: 3+0+0+4+4 = 11.

  9. Parity bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_bit

    Accordingly, there are two variants of parity bits: even parity bit and odd parity bit. In the case of even parity, for a given set of bits, the bits whose value is 1 are counted. If that count is odd, the parity bit value is set to 1, making the total count of occurrences of 1s in the whole set (including the parity bit) an even number.
