  2. Cannonball problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannonball_problem

    A square pyramid of cannonballs in a square frame. In the mathematics of figurate numbers, the cannonball problem asks which numbers are both square and square pyramidal.The problem can be stated as: given a square arrangement of cannonballs, for what size squares can these cannonballs also be arranged into a square pyramid.

    */ /* This implementation does not implement composite functions, functions with a variable number of arguments, or unary operators. */ while there are tokens to be read: read a token if the token is: - a number: put it into the output queue - a function: push it onto the operator stack - an operator o 1: while ( there is an operator o 2 at the ...

  4. Block-stacking problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-stacking_problem

    The first nine blocks in the solution to the single-wide block-stacking problem with the overhangs indicated. In statics, the block-stacking problem (sometimes known as The Leaning Tower of Lire (Johnson 1955), also the book-stacking problem, or a number of other similar terms) is a puzzle concerning the stacking of blocks at the edge of a table.

  5. Branching factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_factor

    A red–black tree with branching factor 2. In computing, tree data structures, and game theory, the branching factor is the number of children at each node, the outdegree.If this value is not uniform, an average branching factor can be calculated.

  6. Pancake sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancake_sorting

    Pancake sorting is the mathematical problem of sorting a disordered stack of pancakes in order of size when a spatula can be inserted at any point in the stack and used to flip all pancakes above it. A pancake number is the minimum number of flips required for a given number of pancakes.

  7. Stack effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_effect

    Reference [10] explains how the NPL affects the stack effect in high-rise buildings. For flue gas stacks or chimneys, where air is on the outside and combustion flue gases are on the inside, the equation will only provide an approximation. Also, A is the cross-sectional flow area and h is the height of the flue gas stack or chimney.

    SciPy (pronounced / ˈ s aɪ p aɪ / "sigh pie" [2]) is a free and open-source Python library used for scientific computing and technical computing. [3]SciPy contains modules for optimization, linear algebra, integration, interpolation, special functions, FFT, signal and image processing, ODE solvers and other tasks common in science and engineering.

  9. Tree (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(abstract_data_type)

    The height of a node is the length of the longest downward path to a leaf from that node. The height of the root is the height of the tree. The depth of a node is the length of the path to its root (i.e., its root path). Thus the root node has depth zero, leaf nodes have height zero, and a tree with only a single node (hence both a root and ...
