  2. Data validation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_validation

    Data type validation is customarily carried out on one or more simple data fields. The simplest kind of data type validation verifies that the individual characters provided through user input are consistent with the expected characters of one or more known primitive data types as defined in a programming language or data storage and retrieval ...

    Here the 'IEEE 754 double value' resulting of the 15 bit figure is 3.330560653658221E-15, which is rounded by Excel for the 'user interface' to 15 digits 3.33056065365822E-15, and then displayed with 30 decimals digits gets one 'fake zero' added, thus the 'binary' and 'decimal' values in the sample are identical only in display, the values ...

    They can be missed by editors quite easily, just as they can be created quite easily. The most obvious cure for the errors is for the user to watch the screen when they type, and to proofread. If the entry is occurring in data capture forms, databases or subscription forms, the designer of the forms should use input masks or validation rules.

  5. Data validation and reconciliation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_validation_and...

    Data reconciliation is a technique that targets at correcting measurement errors that are due to measurement noise, i.e. random errors.From a statistical point of view the main assumption is that no systematic errors exist in the set of measurements, since they may bias the reconciliation results and reduce the robustness of the reconciliation.

  6. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spreadsheet

    When the computer calculates a formula in one cell to update the displayed value of that cell, cell reference(s) in that cell, naming some other cell(s), causes the computer to fetch the value of the named cell(s). A cell on the same "sheet" is usually addressed as: =A1 A cell on a different sheet of the same spreadsheet is usually addressed as:

    Note: that data-sort-type=VALUE must go in the header cell with the sorting icon. That will be the lowest header cell. That will be the lowest header cell. (See Help:Sortable tables § Forcing a column to have a particular data type ).

  8. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    A checksum is a small-sized block of data derived from another block of digital data for the purpose of detecting errors that may have been introduced during its transmission or storage. By themselves, checksums are often used to verify data integrity but are not relied upon to verify data authenticity. [1]

  9. Training, validation, and test data sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Training,_validation,_and...

    A training data set is a data set of examples used during the learning process and is used to fit the parameters (e.g., weights) of, for example, a classifier. [9] [10]For classification tasks, a supervised learning algorithm looks at the training data set to determine, or learn, the optimal combinations of variables that will generate a good predictive model.
