  2. Printer's key - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer's_key

    This is how the printer's key may appear in the first print run of a book. In this common example numbers are removed with subsequent printings, so if "1" is seen then the book is the first printing of that edition. If it is the second printing then the "1" is removed, meaning that the lowest number seen will be "2". [3]

  3. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

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

    In elementary arithmetic, a carry is a digit that is transferred from one column of digits to another column of more significant digits. 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 ...

  4. Page numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_numbering

    Even numbers usually appear on verso (left-hand) pages, while odd numbers appear on recto (right-hand) pages. In the printing industry, in cases where odd numbers appear on verso pages and even numbers on recto pages, this is referred to as non-traditional folios (in the past, it had been referred to as Chinese folios, however this term has fallen out of favor in recent years).

    This does not compute the nth decimal digit of π (i.e., in base 10). [3] But another formula discovered by Plouffe in 2022 allows extracting the nth digit of π in decimal. [4] BBP and BBP-inspired algorithms have been used in projects such as PiHex [5] for calculating many digits of π using distributed computing. The existence of this ...

  6. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    Subtracting 2 times the last digit from the rest gives a multiple of 3. (Works because 21 is divisible by 3) 405: 40 − 5 × 2 = 40 − 10 = 30 = 3 × 10. 4: The last two digits form a number that is divisible by 4. [2] [3] 40,832: 32 is divisible by 4. If the tens digit is even, the ones digit must be 0, 4, or 8.

  7. Cistercian numerals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cistercian_numerals

    A late-thirteenth-century Cistercian doodle had differentiated horizontal digits for lower powers of ten from vertical digits for higher powers of ten, but that potentially productive convention is not known to have been exploited at the time; it could have covered numbers into the tens of millions (horizontal 10 0 to 10 3, vertical 10 4 to 10 ...

  9. Casting out nines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting_out_nines

    If the digit 9 is ignored when summing the digits, the effect is to "cast out" one more 9 to give the result 12. More generally, when casting out nines by summing digits, any set of digits which add up to 9, or a multiple of 9, can be ignored. In the number 3264, for example, the digits 3 and 6 sum to 9.
