  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

    In other words, the expected value of the uncorrected sample variance does not equal the population variance σ 2, unless multiplied by a normalization factor. The sample mean, on the other hand, is an unbiased [5] estimator of the population mean μ. [3]

    See also: the {{}} template. The #if function selects one of two alternatives based on the truth value of a test string. {{#if: test string | value if true | value if false}} As explained above, a string is considered true if it contains at least one non-whitespace character.

    The first type of equality usually implies the second (except for things like not a number which are unequal to themselves), but the converse is not necessarily true. For example, two string objects may be distinct objects (unequal in the first sense) but contain the same sequence of characters (equal in the second sense).

    may mean that A is a subset of B, and is possibly equal to B; that is, every element of A belongs to B; expressed as a formula, ,. 2. A ⊂ B {\displaystyle A\subset B} may mean that A is a proper subset of B , that is the two sets are different, and every element of A belongs to B ; expressed as a formula, A ≠ B ∧ ∀ x , x ∈ A ⇒ x ∈ ...

    The same is true for not less than, . The notation a ≠ b means that a is not equal to b; this inequation sometimes is considered a form of strict inequality. [4] It does not say that one is greater than the other; it does not even require a and b to be member of an ordered set.

  8. F-test of equality of variances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-test_of_equality_of...

    In statistics, an F-test of equality of variances is a test for the null hypothesis that two normal populations have the same variance.Notionally, any F-test can be regarded as a comparison of two variances, but the specific case being discussed in this article is that of two populations, where the test statistic used is the ratio of two sample variances.

    The closely related code point U+2262 ≢ NOT IDENTICAL TO (≢, ≢) is the same symbol with a slash through it, indicating the negation of its mathematical meaning. [ 1 ] In LaTeX mathematical formulas, the code \equiv produces the triple bar symbol and \not\equiv produces the negated triple bar symbol ≢ {\displaystyle \not ...
