  2. Fast Walsh–Hadamard transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Walsh–Hadamard...

    Python example code [ edit ] import math def fwht ( a ) -> None : """In-place Fast Walsh–Hadamard Transform of array a.""" assert math . log2 ( len ( a )) . is_integer (), "length of a is a power of 2" h = 1 while h < len ( a ): # perform FWHT for i in range ( 0 , len ( a ), h * 2 ): for j in range ( i , i + h ): x = a [ j ] y = a [ j + h ] a ...

  3. Move-to-front transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Move-to-front_transform

    The move-to-front (MTF) transform is an encoding of data (typically a stream of bytes) designed to improve the performance of entropy encoding techniques of compression.When efficiently implemented, it is fast enough that its benefits usually justify including it as an extra step in data compression algorithm.

  4. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Function_(computer_programming)

    For example, in the expression (f(x)-1)/(f(x)+1), the function f cannot be called only once with its value used two times since the two calls may return different results. Moreover, in the few languages which define the order of evaluation of the division operator's operands, the value of x must be fetched again before the second call, since ...

  5. Function composition (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition...

    In computer science, function composition is an act or mechanism to combine simple functions to build more complicated ones. Like the usual composition of functions in mathematics, the result of each function is passed as the argument of the next, and the result of the last one is the result of the whole.

  6. Ackermann function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_function

    Several slightly different definitions of α(m, n) exist; for example, log 2 n is sometimes replaced by n, and the floor function is sometimes replaced by a ceiling. Other studies might define an inverse function of one where m is set to a constant, such that the inverse applies to a particular row. [19]

  7. Currying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currying

    For example, if function div stands for the division operation x/y, then div with the parameter x fixed at 1 (i.e., div 1) is another function: the same as the function inv that returns the multiplicative inverse of its argument, defined by inv(y) = 1/y.

  8. Matrix representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_representation

    Illustration of row- and column-major order. Matrix representation is a method used by a computer language to store column-vector matrices of more than one dimension in memory. Fortran and C use different schemes for their native arrays. Fortran uses "Column Major" , in which all the elements for a given column are stored contiguously in memory.

  9. Computational complexity of mathematical operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity...

    The elementary functions are constructed by composing arithmetic operations, the exponential function (), the natural logarithm (), trigonometric functions (,), and their inverses. The complexity of an elementary function is equivalent to that of its inverse, since all elementary functions are analytic and hence invertible by means of Newton's ...
