  2. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    The solutions of the quadratic equation ax 2 + bx + c = 0 correspond to the roots of the function f(x) = ax 2 + bx + c, since they are the values of x for which f(x) = 0. If a, b, and c are real numbers and the domain of f is the set of real numbers, then the roots of f are exactly the x-coordinates of the points where the graph touches the x-axis.

  3. Absolute value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value

    The graph of the absolute value function for real numbers The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero.. In mathematics, the absolute value or modulus of a real number, denoted | |, is the non-negative value of without regard to its sign.

  4. C-number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-number

    The term c-number (classical number) is an old nomenclature introduced by Paul Dirac which refers to real and complex numbers. It is used to distinguish from operators ( q-numbers or quantum numbers) in quantum mechanics .

  5. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    [1] [2] All functions use floating-point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different, albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions. Most of these functions are also available in the C++ standard library, though in different headers (the C headers are included as well, but only as a deprecated compatibility feature).

  7. Cyclomatic complexity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclomatic_complexity

    Exiting the loop, there is a conditional statement (group below the loop) and the program exits at the blue node. This graph has nine edges, eight nodes and one connected component, so the program's cyclomatic complexity is 9 − 8 + 2×1 = 3. There are multiple ways to define cyclomatic complexity of a section of source code.

    2. Denotes the additive inverse and is read as minus, the negative of, or the opposite of; for example, –2. 3. Also used in place of \ for denoting the set-theoretic complement; see \ in § Set theory. × (multiplication sign) 1. In elementary arithmetic, denotes multiplication, and is read as times; for example, 3 × 2. 2.

  9. Cauchy principal value - Wikipedia

    Depending on the type of singularity in the integrand f, the Cauchy principal value is defined according to the following rules: . For a singularity at a finite number b + [() + + ()] with < < and where b is the difficult point, at which the behavior of the function f is such that = for any < and = for any >.
