  2. Pairwise summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pairwise_summation

    For example, if the summands x i are uncorrelated random numbers with zero mean, the sum is a random walk and the condition number will grow proportional to . On the other hand, for random inputs with nonzero mean the condition number asymptotes to a finite constant as n → ∞ {\displaystyle n\to \infty } .

  3. Maximum subarray problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_subarray_problem

    For example, for the array of values [−2, 1, −3, 4, −1, 2, 1, −5, 4], the contiguous subarray with the largest sum is [4, −1, 2, 1], with sum 6. Some properties of this problem are: If the array contains all non-negative numbers, then the problem is trivial; a maximum subarray is the entire array.

  4. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    Greedy number partitioning – loops over the numbers, and puts each number in the set whose current sum is smallest. If the numbers are not sorted, then the runtime is O( n ) and the approximation ratio is at most 3/2 ("approximation ratio" means the larger sum in the algorithm output, divided by the larger sum in an optimal partition).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    For example, if the summands are uncorrelated random numbers with zero mean, the sum is a random walk, and the condition number will grow proportional to . On the other hand, for random inputs with nonzero mean the condition number asymptotes to a finite constant as n → ∞ {\displaystyle n\to \infty } .

  6. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total.Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.

  7. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    Whenever the sum of the current element in the first array and the current element in the second array is more than T, the algorithm moves to the next element in the first array. If it is less than T, the algorithm moves to the next element in the second array. If two elements that sum to T are found, it stops. (The sub-problem for two elements ...

  8. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  9. Comparison of programming languages (array) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    For example, to perform an element by element sum of two arrays, a and b to produce a third c, it is only necessary to write c = a + b In addition to support for vectorized arithmetic and relational operations, these languages also vectorize common mathematical functions such as sine. For example, if x is an array, then y = sin (x)
