  2. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The first result, after rounding, would be 10003.1. The second result would be 10005.81828 before rounding and 10005.8 after rounding. This is not correct. However, with compensated summation, we get the correctly rounded result of 10005.9. Assume that c has the initial value zero. Trailing zeros shown where they are significant for the six ...

  3. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    There are two common rounding rules, round-by-chop and round-to-nearest. The IEEE standard uses round-to-nearest. Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero.

  4. Numerical stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_stability

    One is numerical linear algebra and the other is algorithms for solving ordinary and partial differential equations by discrete approximation. In numerical linear algebra, the principal concern is instabilities caused by proximity to singularities of various kinds, such as very small or nearly colliding eigenvalues. On the other hand, in ...

  5. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    Rounding or rounding off means replacing a number with an approximate value that has a shorter, simpler, or more explicit representation. For example, replacing $ 23.4476 with $ 23.45, the fraction 312/937 with 1/3, or the expression √2 with 1.414. Rounding is often done to obtain a value that is easier to report and communicate than the ...

    For example, X 1 X 2 does not equal X 2 X 1. More generally, one can construct the free algebra R E on any set E of generators. Since rings may be regarded as Z-algebras, a free ring on E can be defined as the free algebra Z E . Over a field, the free algebra on n indeterminates can be constructed as the tensor algebra on an n-dimensional ...

  7. Machine epsilon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_epsilon

    This alternative definition is significantly more widespread: machine epsilon is the difference between 1 and the next larger floating point number.This definition is used in language constants in Ada, C, C++, Fortran, MATLAB, Mathematica, Octave, Pascal, Python and Rust etc., and defined in textbooks like «Numerical Recipes» by Press et al.
