  2. Function composition (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    Readability and hence maintainability is one advantage of highly composed forms, since they require fewer lines of code, minimizing a program's "surface area". [1] DeMarco and Lister empirically verify an inverse relationship between surface area and maintainability. [2] On the other hand, it may be possible to overuse highly composed forms.

  3. Z-order curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve

    The less_msb function is modified to first compare the exponents. Only when they are equal is the standard less_msb function used on the mantissas. [8] Once the points are in sorted order, two properties make it easy to build a quadtree: The first is that the points contained in a square of the quadtree form a contiguous interval in the sorted ...

  4. Enumerated type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enumerated_type

    The order in which the enumeration values are given matters. An enumerated type is an ordinal type, and the pred and succ functions will give the prior or next value of the enumeration, and ord can convert enumeration values to their integer representation. Standard Pascal does not offer a conversion from arithmetic types to enumerations, however.

    void gmix_column (unsigned char * r) {unsigned char a [4]; unsigned char b [4]; unsigned char c; unsigned char h; /* The array 'a' is simply a copy of the input array 'r' * The array 'b' is each element of the array 'a' multiplied by 2 * in Rijndael's Galois field * a[n] ^ b[n] is element n multiplied by 3 in Rijndael's Galois field */ for (c = 0; c < 4; c ++) {a [c] = r [c]; /* h is set to ...

    IronPython allows running Python 2.7 programs (and an alpha, released in 2021, is also available for "Python 3.4, although features and behaviors from later versions may be included" [170]) on the .NET Common Language Runtime. [171] Jython compiles Python 2.7 to Java bytecode, allowing the use of the Java libraries from a Python program. [172]

  7. 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 ...

  8. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    In mathematics, the inverse function of a function f (also called the inverse of f) is a function that undoes the operation of f. The inverse of f exists if and only if f is bijective , and if it exists, is denoted by f − 1 . {\displaystyle f^{-1}.}

  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 ...
