(red) fits into the next two digits once (if rotated), so the next digit in the quotient is a rotated one (that is, a five). (blue) The last two digits are matched once for ...

  3. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    A common solution is to initially compute the sine of many evenly distributed values, and then to find the sine of x we choose the sine of the value closest to x through array indexing operation. This will be close to the correct value because sine is a continuous function with a bounded rate of change. [10]: 6 For example: [11]: 545–548

    A digit (in a given position in the number) that is lower than its corresponding threshold value means that it is the most-significant digit, hence in the string this is the end of the number, and the next symbol (if present) is the least-significant digit of the next number. For example, if the threshold value for the first digit is b (i.e. 1 ...

  8. Nominal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_number

    Nominal numbers are numerals used as labels to identify items uniquely. Importantly, the actual values of the numbers which these numerals represent are less relevant, as they do not indicate quantity, rank, or any other measurement. Labelling referees Smith and Kumar as referees "1" and "2" is a use of nominal numbers.

  9. Babylonian cuneiform numerals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylonian_cuneiform_numerals

    The Babylonian system is credited as being the first known positional numeral system, in which the value of a particular digit depends both on the digit itself and its position within the number. This was an extremely important development because non-place-value systems require unique symbols to represent each power of a base (ten, one hundred ...
