    The program operates on data entered in cells of a table. Each cell may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.

  3. Data collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_collection

    Data collection and validation consist of four steps when it involves taking a census and seven steps when it involves sampling. [3] A formal data collection process is necessary, as it ensures that the data gathered are both defined and accurate. This way, subsequent decisions based on arguments embodied in the findings are made using valid ...

  4. Data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_analysis

    A data product is a computer application that takes data inputs and generates outputs, feeding them back into the environment. [41] It may be based on a model or algorithm. For instance, an application that analyzes data about customer purchase history, and uses the results to recommend other purchases the customer might enjoy. [42] [13]

  5. Evaluation measures (information retrieval) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaluation_measures...

    Evaluation measures for an information retrieval (IR) system assess how well an index, search engine, or database returns results from a collection of resources that satisfy a user's query. They are therefore fundamental to the success of information systems and digital platforms.

  6. Formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula

    A molecular formula enumerates the number of atoms to reflect those in the molecule, so that the molecular formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6 rather than the glucose empirical formula, which is CH 2 O. Except for the very simple substances, molecular chemical formulas generally lack needed structural information, and might even be ambiguous in ...

    Several of these approaches are based upon the concept of online analytical processing, or OLAP, and may be supported by data models such as text cubes. [14] Once document metadata is available through a data model, generating summaries of subsets of documents (i.e., cells within a text cube) may be performed with phrase-based approaches. [15]

  8. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.

  9. Pearson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson_distribution

    A Pearson density p is defined to be any valid solution to the differential equation (cf. Pearson 1895, p. 381) ′ () + + + + = ()with: =, = = +, =. According to Ord, [3] Pearson devised the underlying form of Equation (1) on the basis of, firstly, the formula for the derivative of the logarithm of the density function of the normal distribution (which gives a linear function) and, secondly ...
