  2. Variadic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_function

    The basic variadic facility in C++ is largely identical to that in C. The only difference is in the syntax, where the comma before the ellipsis can be omitted. C++ allows variadic functions without named parameters but provides no way to access those arguments since va_start requires the name of the last fixed argument of the function.

  3. Closest pair of points problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closest_pair_of_points_problem

    The closest pair of points problem or closest pair problem is a problem of computational geometry: given points in metric space, find a pair of points with the smallest distance between them. The closest pair problem for points in the Euclidean plane [ 1 ] was among the first geometric problems that were treated at the origins of the systematic ...

  4. Convex hull algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull_algorithms

    Find the two points with the lowest and highest x-coordinates, and the two points with the lowest and highest y-coordinates. (Each of these operations takes O ( n ).) These four points form a convex quadrilateral , and all points that lie in this quadrilateral (except for the four initially chosen vertices) are not part of the convex hull.

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    There are two types of divisions in Python: floor division (or integer division) // and floating-point / division. [103] Python uses the ** operator for exponentiation. Python uses the + operator for string concatenation. Python uses the * operator for duplicating a string a specified number of times.

  6. Self-concordant function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-concordant_function

    Let f be a function from interior(C) to R. Let M>0 be a real parameter. We say that f is a M-self-concordant barrier for C if it satisfies the following: 1. f is a self-concordant function on interior(C). 2. For every point x in interior(C), and any direction h in R n, let g h be the function f restricted to the direction h, that is: g h (t ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports normal floating point numbers, which are created when a dot is used in a literal (e.g. 1.1), when an integer and a floating point number are used in an expression, or as a result of some mathematical operations ("true division" via the / operator, or exponentiation with a negative exponent).

  8. Convex combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_combination

    A conical combination is a linear combination with nonnegative coefficients. When a point is to be used as the reference origin for defining displacement vectors, then is a convex combination of points ,, …, if and only if the zero displacement is a non-trivial conical combination of their respective displacement vectors relative to .

  9. Extreme point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_point

    In mathematics, an extreme point of a convex set in a real or complex vector space is a point in that does not lie in any open line segment joining two points of . In linear programming problems, an extreme point is also called vertex or corner point of S . {\displaystyle S.} [ 1 ]
