    On a single-step or immediate-execution calculator, the user presses a key for each operation, calculating all the intermediate results, before the final value is shown. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] On an expression or formula calculator , one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_underflow

    The term arithmetic underflow (also floating-point underflow, or just underflow) is a condition in a computer program where the result of a calculation is a number of more precise absolute value than the computer can actually represent in memory on its central processing unit (CPU).

  4. Secant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secant_method

    In numerical analysis, the secant method is a root-finding algorithm that uses a succession of roots of secant lines to better approximate a root of a function f. The secant method can be thought of as a finite-difference approximation of Newton's method, so it is considered a quasi-Newton method.

    This single cell shows the process of the central dogma of molecular biology, which are all steps researchers are interested to quantify (DNA, RNA, and Protein).. In cell biology, single-cell analysis and subcellular analysis [1] refer to the study of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and cell–cell interactions at the level of an individual cell, as opposed to more ...

  6. Boolean flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_flag

    A single byte can contain up to 8 separate Boolean flags by mapping one Boolean flag to each bit, making it a very economical and dense method of data storage. This is known as a packed representation or bit-packing, and the opposite encoding with only one Boolean flag per byte used is known as a sparse representation.
