  2. Arbitrary-precision arithmetic - Wikipedia

    However, since division almost immediately introduces infinitely repeating sequences of digits (such as 4/7 in decimal, or 1/10 in binary), should this possibility arise then either the representation would be truncated at some satisfactory size or else rational numbers would be used: a large integer for the numerator and for the denominator.

    Hermes Project: C++/Python library for rapid prototyping of space- and space-time adaptive hp-FEM solvers. IML++ is a C++ library for solving linear systems of equations, capable of dealing with dense, sparse, and distributed matrices. IT++ is a C++ library for linear algebra (matrices and vectors), signal processing and communications ...

    0101 (decimal 5) OR 0011 (decimal 3) = 0111 (decimal 7) The bitwise OR may be used to set to 1 the selected bits of the register described above. For example, the fourth bit of 0010 (decimal 2) may be set by performing a bitwise OR with the pattern with only the fourth bit set: 0010 (decimal 2) OR 1000 (decimal 8) = 1010 (decimal 10)

  5. Boolean data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_data_type

    In computer science, the Boolean (sometimes shortened to Bool) is a data type that has one of two possible values (usually denoted true and false) which is intended to represent the two truth values of logic and Boolean algebra. It is named after George Boole, who first defined an algebraic system of logic in the mid 19th century.

    The bitwise XOR (exclusive or) performs an exclusive disjunction, which is equivalent to adding two bits and discarding the carry. The result is zero only when we have two zeroes or two ones. [3] XOR can be used to toggle the bits between 1 and 0. Thus i = i ^ 1 when used in a loop toggles its values between 1 and 0. [4]

    bc first appeared in Version 6 Unix in 1975. It was written by Lorinda Cherry of Bell Labs as a front end to dc, an arbitrary-precision calculator written by Robert Morris and Cherry. dc performed arbitrary-precision computations specified in reverse Polish notation. bc provided a conventional programming-language interface to the same capability via a simple compiler (a single yacc source ...

  8. Bit array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_array

    A bit array (also known as bitmask, [1] bit map, bit set, bit string, or bit vector) is an array data structure that compactly stores bits. It can be used to implement a simple set data structure . A bit array is effective at exploiting bit-level parallelism in hardware to perform operations quickly.

  9. C data types - Wikipedia

    Multidimensional arrays are defined as "array of array …", and all except the outermost dimension must have compile-time constant size: int a [ 10 ][ 8 ]; // array of 10 elements, each of type 'array of 8 int elements'
