  2. Levenshtein distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance

    It is at least the absolute value of the difference of the sizes of the two strings. It is at most the length of the longer string. It is zero if and only if the strings are equal. If the strings have the same size, the Hamming distance is an upper bound on the Levenshtein distance. The Hamming distance is the number of positions at which the ...

  3. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Since 7 October 2024, Python 3.13 is the latest stable release, and it and, for few more months, 3.12 are the only releases with active support including for bug fixes (as opposed to just for security) and Python 3.9, [49] is the oldest supported version of Python (albeit in the 'security support' phase), due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life.

  4. Karplus–Strong string synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karplus–Strong_string...

    The length of any digital delay line is a whole-number multiple of the sampling period. In order to obtain a fractional delay often needed for fine tuning the string below JND ( Just Noticeable Difference ), interpolating filters are used with parameters selected to obtain an appropriate phase delay at the fundamental frequency.

  5. String metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_metric

    The most widely known string metric is a rudimentary one called the Levenshtein distance (also known as edit distance). [2] It operates between two input strings, returning a number equivalent to the number of substitutions and deletions needed in order to transform one input string into another.

  6. Data truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_truncation

    In databases and computer networking data truncation occurs when data or a data stream (such as a file) is stored in a location too short to hold its entire length. [1] Data truncation may occur automatically, such as when a long string is written to a smaller buffer, or deliberately, when only a portion of the data is wanted.

  7. Truncation error (numerical integration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_error...

    Suppose we have a continuous differential equation ′ = (,), =, and we wish to compute an approximation of the true solution () at discrete time steps ,, …,.For simplicity, assume the time steps are equally spaced:

  8. Truncated binary encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_binary_encoding

    If n is a power of two, then the coded value for 0 ≤ x < n is the simple binary code for x of length log 2 (n). Otherwise let k = floor(log 2 (n)), such that 2 k < n < 2 k+1 and let u = 2 k+1 − n. Truncated binary encoding assigns the first u symbols codewords of length k and then assigns the remaining n − u symbols the last n − u ...

  9. Truncated normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_normal_distribution

    One such truncated normal generator (implemented in Matlab and in R (programming language) as trandn.R) is based on an acceptance rejection idea due to Marsaglia. [10] Despite the slightly suboptimal acceptance rate of Marsaglia (1964) in comparison with Robert (1995) , Marsaglia's method is typically faster, [ 9 ] because it does not require ...
