Markov number by Wikipedia Bot 0
A Markov number is a specific type of positive integer that is associated with a particular solution to Markov's equation, which is given by: \[ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 3xyz \] where \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) are positive integers. A set of numbers \( (x, y, z) \) that satisfies this equation is called a Markov triple.

As per stackoverflow.com/a/52351480/895245 our standard test setup is:
while true; do
  resp=$"$(date): hello\n"
  len="$(printf '%s' "$resp" | wc -c)"
  printf "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: $len\r\n\r\n${resp}\n" | nc -Nl 8000

Mordell curve by Wikipedia Bot 0
A Mordell curve is a type of algebraic curve defined by a specific type of equation. More formally, it can be described as an elliptic curve given by a Weierstrass equation of the form: \[ y^2 = x^3 + k \] where \( k \) is a constant. These curves are named after the mathematician Louise Mordell, who studied the properties of such equations and their rational points.
Optic equation by Wikipedia Bot 0
The term "Optic equation" does not refer to a specific, universally recognized equation in optics. Instead, it may refer to several key equations and principles used in the field of optics, which is the study of light and its behavior. 1. **Lens Maker's Equation**: This equation relates the focal length of a lens to the radii of curvature of its two surfaces and the refractive index of the lens material.
City of London by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
The City of London is an obscene thing. Its existence goes against the will of the greater part of society. All it takes is one glance to see how it is but a bunch of corruption. See e.g.: The Spiders' Web: Britain's Second Empire.
Pell's equation by Wikipedia Bot 0
Pell's equation is a specific type of Diophantine equation, which is an equation that seeks integer solutions. It is typically expressed in the form: \[ x^2 - Dy^2 = 1 \] Here, \( x \) and \( y \) are integers, and \( D \) is a positive integer that is not a perfect square. The main objective is to find integer pairs \((x, y)\) that satisfy this equation.

Classical computer by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
In the context of quantum computing of the 2020's, a "classical computer" is a computer that is not "quantum", i.e., the then dominating CMOS computers.

Pidgin (software) by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
Proof by infinite descent is a mathematical proof technique that is particularly effective in certain areas, such as number theory. It is based on the principle that a statement is true if assuming its negation leads to an infinite sequence of cases that cannot exist in practice. The idea can be summarized as follows: 1. **Assumption of Negation**: Start by assuming that there exists a solution (or an example) that contradicts the statement you are trying to prove.

Political division:
  • nominal leader: British monarch
  • toplevel arch-dioceses/provinces of Cantebury and York. One archbishop each, who is also bishop of Cantebury and York diocese
  • within provinces: one cathedral and bishop per diocese
The Banach-Mazur game is a two-player game in the field of set theory and topology, particularly in the context of functional analysis. It is named after mathematicians Stefan Banach and Juliusz Mazur, who introduced the game in the early 20th century. ### Rules of the Game: 1. **Players**: There are two players, typically called Player I and Player II.

Pinned article: ourbigbook/introduction-to-the-ourbigbook-project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.
