  2. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A multiple of a number is the product of that number and an integer. For example, 10 is a multiple of 5 because 5 × 2 = 10, so 10 is divisible by 5 and 2. Because 10 is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both 5 and 2, it is the least common multiple of 5 and 2.

  3. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    If a ≡ +3, X alternates ±1↔±3, while if a ≡ −3, X alternates ±1↔∓3 (all modulo 8). It can be shown that this form is equivalent to a generator with modulus m/4 and c ≠ 0. [1] A more serious issue with the use of a power-of-two modulus is that the low bits have a shorter period than the high bits.

  4. Shakespeare Programming Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare_Programming...

    The Shakespeare Programming Language (SPL) is an esoteric programming language designed by Jon Åslund and Karl Wiberg. [1] Like the Chef programming language , it is designed to make programs appear to be something other than programs — in this case, Shakespearean plays.

  5. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

    In computer science, recursion is a method of solving a computational problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem. [1] [2] Recursion solves such recursive problems by using functions that call themselves from within their own code. The approach can be applied to many types of problems, and recursion ...

    Laser capture microdissection, use of a laser through a microscope to isolate and extract cells; Liquid-crystal module, a liquid-crystal display module; Lower of cost or market, a value; Land change modeling, an analytical field of geography; Liverpool Classical Monthly, an academic journal on classical antiquity

  7. LOOP (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOOP_(programming_language)

    The predecessor program changes the variable x 2, which might be in use elsewhere. To expand the statement x 0 := x 1 ∸ 1, one could initialize the variables x n, x n+1 and x n+2 (for a big enough n) to 0, x 1 and 0 respectively, run the code on these variables and copy the result (x n) to x 0. A compiler can do this.

    Because its elements are related to the previous elements in a straightforward way, they are often defined using recursion. A drawing of the first 75 terms of Recamán's sequence, according with the method of visualization shown in the Numberphile video The Slightly Spooky Recamán Sequence [3]

  9. Merge (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_(linguistics)

    In this example by Cecchetto (2015), the verb "read" unambiguously labels the structure because "read" is a word, which means it is a probe by definition, in which "read" selects "the book". the bigger constituent generated by merging the word with the syntactic objects receives the label of the word itself, which allow us to label the tree as ...
