    PER Aligned: a fixed number of bits if the integer type has a finite range and the size of the range is less than 65536; a variable number of octets otherwise; OER: 1, 2, or 4 octets (either signed or unsigned) if the integer type has a finite range that fits in that number of octets; a variable number of octets otherwise

  3. NaN - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN

    For example, the calculation x 0 may produce the result 1, even where x is NaN, so checking only the final result would obscure the fact that a calculation before the x 0 resulted in a NaN. In general, then, a later test for a set invalid flag is needed to detect all cases where NaNs are introduced [ 3 ] (see Function definition below for ...

  4. Integer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_programming

    There are two main reasons for using integer variables when modeling problems as a linear program: The integer variables represent quantities that can only be integer. For example, it is not possible to build 3.7 cars. The integer variables represent decisions (e.g. whether to include an edge in a graph) and so should only take on the value 0 or 1.

  5. Arbitrary-precision arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary-precision_arithmetic

    Some programming languages such as Lisp, Python, Perl, Haskell, Ruby and Raku use, or have an option to use, arbitrary-precision numbers for all integer arithmetic. Although this reduces performance, it eliminates the possibility of incorrect results (or exceptions) due to simple overflow.

  6. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    For example, in the Python programming language, int represents an arbitrary-precision integer which has the traditional numeric operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication. However, in the Java programming language , the type int represents the set of 32-bit integers ranging in value from −2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 ...

  7. Integer sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sorting

    In computer science, integer sorting is the algorithmic problem of sorting a collection of data values by integer keys. Algorithms designed for integer sorting may also often be applied to sorting problems in which the keys are floating point numbers, rational numbers , or text strings. [ 1 ]

  8. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  9. Design matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_matrix

    The design matrix has dimension n-by-p, where n is the number of samples observed, and p is the number of variables measured in all samples. [4] [5]In this representation different rows typically represent different repetitions of an experiment, while columns represent different types of data (say, the results from particular probes).
