  2. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    Storage caches (including disk caches for files, or processor caches for either code or data) work also like a lookup table. The table is built with very fast memory instead of being stored on slower external memory, and maintains two pieces of data for a sub-range of bits composing an external memory (or disk) address (notably the lowest bits ...

    It is not intended to be a cryptographically secure hash function; it was designed to protect against accidental errors, not malicious attacks. Most credit card numbers and many government identification numbers use the algorithm as a simple method of distinguishing valid numbers from mistyped or otherwise incorrect numbers.

  7. CPython - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPython

    The non-Python library being called to perform the CPU-intensive task is not subject to the GIL and may concurrently execute many threads on multiple processors without restriction. Concurrency of Python code can only be achieved with separate CPython interpreter processes managed by a multitasking operating system .

  8. Monte Carlo integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_integration

    An illustration of Monte Carlo integration. In this example, the domain D is the inner circle and the domain E is the square. Because the square's area (4) can be easily calculated, the area of the circle (π*1.0 2) can be estimated by the ratio (0.8) of the points inside the circle (40) to the total number of points (50), yielding an approximation for the circle's area of 4*0.8 = 3.2 ≈ π.
