  2. Ternary conditional operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_conditional_operator

    The detailed semantics of "the" ternary operator as well as its syntax differs significantly from language to language. A top level distinction from one language to another is whether the expressions permit side effects (as in most procedural languages) and whether the language provides short-circuit evaluation semantics, whereby only the selected expression is evaluated (most standard ...

    Moreover, the query eat (X, jerry) succeeds with the answer substitution X = tom. Prolog executes programs top-down, using SLD resolution to reason backwards , reducing goals to subgoals. In this example, it uses the last rule of the program to reduce the goal of answering the query eat ( X , jerry ) to the subgoals of first finding an X such ...

    In order to calculate the average and standard deviation from aggregate data, it is necessary to have available for each group: the total of values (Σx i = SUM(x)), the number of values (N=COUNT(x)) and the total of squares of the values (Σx i 2 =SUM(x 2)) of each groups.
