  2. Hook length formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_length_formula

    The hook length formula can be understood intuitively using the following heuristic, but incorrect, argument suggested by D. E. Knuth. [16] Given that each element of a tableau is the smallest in its hook and filling the tableau shape at random, the probability that cell ( i , j ) {\displaystyle (i,j)} will contain the minimum element of the ...

  3. Help:Advanced table formatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Advanced_table_formatting

    Instead of trying to make a super-cell that spans rows/columns, split it into smaller cells while leaving some cells intentionally empty. Use a non-breaking space with   or {} in empty cells to maintain the table structure. Custom CSS styling: Override the wikitable class defaults by explicitly specifying: border-collapse: collapse; border ...

  4. Matching (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_(statistics)

    Matching is a statistical technique that evaluates the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned).

  5. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    When the program requires the sine of a value, it can use the lookup table to retrieve the closest sine value from a memory address, and may also interpolate to the sine of the desired value, instead of calculating by mathematical formula. Lookup tables can thus used by mathematics coprocessors in computer systems.

  6. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.

  7. Matching wildcards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_wildcards

    In computer science, an algorithm for matching wildcards (also known as globbing) is useful in comparing text strings that may contain wildcard syntax. [1] Common uses of these algorithms include command-line interfaces, e.g. the Bourne shell [2] or Microsoft Windows command-line [3] or text editor or file manager, as well as the interfaces for some search engines [4] and databases. [5]

  8. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    The sample size is an important feature of any empirical study in which the goal is to make inferences about a population from a sample. In practice, the sample size used in a study is usually determined based on the cost, time, or convenience of collecting the data, and the need for it to offer sufficient statistical power. In complex studies ...

  9. Control table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_table

    The following examples are arbitrary (and based upon just a single input for simplicity), however the intention is merely to demonstrate how control flow can be effected via the use of tables instead of regular program statements. It should be clear that this technique can easily be extended to deal with multiple inputs, either by increasing ...
