packet3 - UML Computer Science
... Basic Idea Positives are just like signed magnitude. Flip the bits and then add one to get the negative. 1 followed by all zeroes is the most negative integer. Computers often use a twos complement representation for integers because: 1) We want to represent negative numbers too. 2) There is one rep ...

Sequences, Sums, Cardinality
... A recurrence relation for the sequence {an }n∈N is an equation that expresses an in terms of (one or more of) the previous elements a0 , a1 , . . . , an−1 of the sequence • Typically the recurrence relation expresses an in terms of just a fixed number of previous elements, e.g. an = g (an−1 , an−2 ) ...

Pythagorean Triples and Rational Points on the Unit Circle
... We will see how the following formula is derived in the Rational Points on the Unit Circle section, but for now we will work with this. (q 2 − p2 , 2pq, p2 + q 2 ) is a Pythagorean triple whenever p and q are positive integers with q > p. Furthermore, every Pythagorean triple is similar to a triple ...

Unit 3 - GCF
... Example: The GCF of 20 and 30 is 10 since 10 divides into 20 evenly 2 times and 10 divides into 30 evenly 3 times. Where do we use the GCF? The GCF is used when we reduce a fraction to lowest terms. For example, we reduce the fraction 20/30 by dividing out the GCF of 10 from both numerator and denom ...

Addition
Addition (often signified by the plus symbol ""+"") is one of the four elementary, mathematical operations of arithmetic, with the others being subtraction, multiplication and division.The addition of two whole numbers is the total amount of those quantities combined. For example, in the picture on the right, there is a combination of three apples and two apples together; making a total of 5 apples. This observation is equivalent to the mathematical expression ""3 + 2 = 5"" i.e., ""3 add 2 is equal to 5"".Besides counting fruits, addition can also represent combining other physical objects. Using systematic generalizations, addition can also be defined on more abstract quantities, such as integers, rational numbers, real numbers and complex numbers and other abstract objects such as vectors and matrices.In arithmetic, rules for addition involving fractions and negative numbers have been devised amongst others. In algebra, addition is studied more abstractly.Addition has several important properties. It is commutative, meaning that order does not matter, and it is associative, meaning that when one adds more than two numbers, the order in which addition is performed does not matter (see Summation). Repeated addition of 1 is the same as counting; addition of 0 does not change a number. Addition also obeys predictable rules concerning related operations such as subtraction and multiplication.Performing addition is one of the simplest numerical tasks. Addition of very small numbers is accessible to toddlers; the most basic task, 1 + 1, can be performed by infants as young as five months and even some non-human animals. In primary education, students are taught to add numbers in the decimal system, starting with single digits and progressively tackling more difficult problems. Mechanical aids range from the ancient abacus to the modern computer, where research on the most efficient implementations of addition continues to this day.
