  2. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    For example, the padding to add to offset 0x59d for a 4-byte aligned structure is 3. The structure will then start at 0x5a0, which is a multiple of 4. However, when the alignment of offset is already equal to that of align , the second modulo in (align - (offset mod align)) mod align will return zero, therefore the original value is left unchanged.

  3. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    For instance, the UPC-A barcode for a box of tissues is "036000241457". The last digit is the check digit "7", and if the other numbers are correct then the check digit calculation must produce 7. Add the odd number digits: 0+6+0+2+1+5 = 14. Multiply the result by 3: 14 × 3 = 42. Add the even number digits: 3+0+0+4+4 = 11.

  4. Longest repeated substring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_repeated_substring...

    The string spelled by the edges from the root to such a node is a longest repeated substring. The problem of finding the longest substring with at least k {\displaystyle k} occurrences can be solved by first preprocessing the tree to count the number of leaf descendants for each internal node, and then finding the deepest node with at least k ...

  5. Luhn algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm

    The Luhn mod N algorithm is an extension that supports non-numerical strings. Because the algorithm operates on the digits in a right-to-left manner and zero digits affect the result only if they cause shift in position, zero-padding the beginning of a string of numbers does not affect the calculation.

  6. Hamming distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

    For a fixed length n, the Hamming distance is a metric on the set of the words of length n (also known as a Hamming space), as it fulfills the conditions of non-negativity, symmetry, the Hamming distance of two words is 0 if and only if the two words are identical, and it satisfies the triangle inequality as well: [2] Indeed, if we fix three words a, b and c, then whenever there is a ...

  7. Base32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32

    Since this notation uses digits 0-9 followed by consecutive letters of the alphabet, it matches the digits used by the JavaScript parseInt() function [5] and the Python int() constructor [6] when a base larger than 10 (such as 16 or 32) is specified. It also retains hexadecimal's property of preserving bitwise sort order of the represented data ...

  8. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    The padding character is not essential for decoding, since the number of missing bytes can be inferred from the length of the encoded text. In some implementations, the padding character is mandatory, while for others it is not used. An exception in which padding characters are required is when multiple Base64 encoded files have been concatenated.

  9. Subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsequence

    For example, the sequence ,, is a subsequence of ,,,,, obtained after removal of elements ,, and . The relation of one sequence being the subsequence of another is a partial order . Subsequences can contain consecutive elements which were not consecutive in the original sequence.
