Integers Sentence Examples

Similarly, the other rational integers must be distinguished from the corresponding cardinals.

Among the great variety of problems solved are problems leading to determinate equations of the first degree in one, two, three or four variables, to determinate quadratic equations, and to indeterminate equations of the first degree in one or more variables, which are, however, transformed into determinate equations by arbitrarily assuming a value for one of the required numbers, Diophantus being always satisfied with a rational, even if fractional, result and not requiring a solution in integers.

We find that fractions follow certain laws corresponding exactly with those of integral multipliers, and we are therefore able to deal with the fractional numbers as if they were integers.

The solution in integers of the indeterminate equation ax+by=c may be effected by means of continued fractions.

If we take aq-bp= +1 we have a general solution in integers of ax+by=c, viz.

The existence of a measurable cardinal also implies some slightly startling things about sets of integers in the constructible universe.

This is done by coding DTDs and integrity constraints with linear constraints on the integers.

As such a function, it is, of course, constant between integers and has a jump discontinuity at each integer where.

We say that integers a and b have a common divisor c if c is a divisor if both a and b.

To calculate the greatest common divisor of two integers and of two polynomials over a field.

Generally, this is false for floating types, true for unsigned integers, and true for signed integers on most machines.

This is the most common format in which we store non-negative integers with present-day computers.

The numbers n can be negative or positive 16-bit integers.

Note the way that decimal and octal integers are read in by grammar rules.

The two operands are internally converted to 4 byte integers before the OR operation.

The 19th century mathematician Kronecker famously claimed that " God made the integers, all the rest is the work of man.

A rational is represented as a pair of integers, called numerator and denominator.

Clearly writing a class hierarchy starting with multivariate polynomials in order to derive integers makes no sense!

Law of If we know the weights a and b of two elements that are reciprocal found in union with unit weight of a third element, then proporwe can predict the composition of the compounds which the first two elements can form with each other; either the weights a and b will combine exactly, or if not, these weights must be multiplied by integers to obtain the composition of a compound.

This single instance of the use of the decimal point in the midst of an arithmetical process, if it stood alone, would not suffice to establish a claim for its introduction, as the real introducer of the decimal point is the person who first saw that a point or line as separator was all that was required to distinguish between the integers and fractions, and used it as a permanent notation and not merely in the course of performing an arithmetical operation.

On p. 8, 10.502 is multiplied by 3.216, and the result found to be 33.77443 2; and on pp. 23 and 24 occur decimals not attached to integers, viz.

Taking any number n to be represented by a point on a line at distance nL from a fixed point 0, where L is a unit of length, we start with a series of points representing the integers I, 2, 3,.

Decimal or Briggian Antilogarithms. - In the ordinary tables of logarithms the natural numbers are all integers, while the logarithms tabulated are incommensurable.

The point separating the integers from the decimal fractions seems to be the invention of Bartholomaeus Pitiscus, in whose trigonometrical tables (1612) it occurs and it was accepted by John Napier in his logarithmic papers (1614 and 1619).

It is evident that, in this case, P ' p2, are two series of positive integers increasing without limit if the fraction does not terminate.

Lagrange used simple continued fractions to approximate to the solutions of numerical equations; thus, if an equation has a root between two integers a and a+1, put x=a+I/y and form the equation in y; if the equation in y has a root between b and b+i, put y = b + I /z, and so on.

The process depends on (ii) of § 45, in the extended form that, if x is a factor of a and b, it is a factor of pa-qb, where p and q are any integers.
