  2. Trachtenberg system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachtenberg_system

    The Trachtenberg system is a system of rapid mental calculation. The system consists of a number of readily memorized operations that allow one to perform arithmetic computations very quickly. It was developed by the Russian engineer Jakow Trachtenberg in order to keep his mind occupied while being in a Nazi concentration camp .

  3. Lambert's problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert's_problem

    For any value between 2856 seconds and 20741 seconds the Lambert's problem can be solved using an y-value between −20000 km and 50000 km. Assume the following values for an Earth centered Kepler orbit r 1 = 10000 km; r 2 = 16000 km; α = 100° These are the numerical values that correspond to figures 1, 2, and 3.

  4. Maya numerals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_numerals

    v. t. e. The Mayan numeral system was the system to represent numbers and calendar dates in the Maya civilization. It was a vigesimal (base-20) positional numeral system. The numerals are made up of three symbols: zero (a shell), [citation needed] one (a dot) and five (a bar). For example, thirteen is written as three dots in a horizontal row ...

    The disciplines are: D0: Preparation and Emergency Response Actions: Plan for solving the problem and determine the prerequisites. Provide emergency response actions. D1: Use a Team: Establish a team of people with product/process knowledge. Teammates provide new perspectives and different ideas when it comes to problem solving.

  6. Numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_system

    Numeral systems. A numeral system is a writing system for expressing numbers; that is, a mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set, using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner. The same sequence of symbols may represent different numbers in different numeral systems. For example, "11" represents the number eleven in ...

  7. Linear complementarity problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_complementarity_problem

    The minimum of f is 0 at z if and only if z solves the linear complementarity problem. If M is positive definite, any algorithm for solving (strictly) convex QPs can solve the LCP. Specially designed basis-exchange pivoting algorithms, such as Lemke's algorithm and a variant of the simplex algorithm of Dantzig have been used for decades ...

  8. 6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6

    In mathematics. Six is the smallest positive integer which is neither a square number nor a prime number. It is the second smallest composite number after four, equal to the sum and the product of its three proper divisors ( 1, 2 and 3 ). [1] As such, 6 is the only number that is both the sum and product of three consecutive positive numbers.

  9. Solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solver

    Solver. A solver is a piece of mathematical software, possibly in the form of a stand-alone computer program or as a software library, that 'solves' a mathematical problem. A solver takes problem descriptions in some sort of generic form and calculates their solution. In a solver, the emphasis is on creating a program or library that can easily ...
