  2. Integer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_overflow

    In particular, multiplying or adding two integers may result in a value that is unexpectedly small, and subtracting from a small integer may cause a wrap to a large positive value (for example, 8-bit integer addition 255 + 2 results in 1, which is 257 mod 2 8, and similarly subtraction 0 − 1 results in 255, a two's complement representation ...

  3. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...

  4. LEB128 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEB128

    Human interface device report descriptor bytes use a byte-count bitfield of 2 bits to encode the size of the following integer of zero, one, two, or four bytes, always little endian. Signedness, i.e. whether to expand the shortened integer with sign or not, depends on the descriptor type.

  5. Variable-length quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_quantity

    It is also used in the WAP environment, where it is called variable length unsigned integer or uintvar. The DWARF debugging format [ 4 ] defines a variant called LEB128 (or ULEB128 for unsigned numbers), where the least significant group of 7 bits is encoded in the first byte, and the most significant bits are in the last byte (so effectively ...

  6. Booth's multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booth's_multiplication...

    Booth's algorithm can be implemented by repeatedly adding (with ordinary unsigned binary addition) one of two predetermined values A and S to a product P, then performing a rightward arithmetic shift on P. Let m and r be the multiplicand and multiplier, respectively; and let x and y represent the number of bits in m and r.

    LeetCode: LeetCode has over 2,300 questions covering many different programming concepts and offers weekly and bi-weekly contests. The programming tasks are offered in English and Chinese. Project Euler [18] Large collection of computational math problems (i.e. not directly related to programming but often requiring programming skills for ...

  8. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    In number theory and computer science, the partition problem, or number partitioning, [1] is the task of deciding whether a given multiset S of positive integers can be partitioned into two subsets S 1 and S 2 such that the sum of the numbers in S 1 equals the sum of the numbers in S 2.

  9. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_(arithmetic)

    It is part of the standard algorithm to add numbers together by starting with the rightmost digits and working to the left. For example, when 6 and 7 are added to make 13, the "3" is written to the same column and the "1" is carried to the left. When used in subtraction the operation is called a borrow.
