A pair of quantities (a, b) where ordering is significant, so (a, b) is considered distinct from (b, a) for a!=b.

2^(50)=1024^5 bytes. Although the term petabyte is sometimes used to refer to 1024^5 bytes, such usage is deprecated in favor of the standard SI naming convention of 1 ...

One petabyte is 10^(15) bytes. Unfortunately, the term is sometimes also used to mean 2^(50)=1024^5 bytes. However, the latter usage is deprecated, and the term pebibyte is ...

A data structure designed to allow repeated extraction of the smallest remaining key (Skiena 1990, p. 38).

An action which adds a single element to the top of a stack, turning the stack (a_1, a_2, ..., a_n) into (a_0, a_1, a_2, ..., a_n).

A queue is a special kind of list in which elements may only be removed from the bottom by a pop action or added to the top using a push action. Examples of queues include ...

A set A of integers is recursively isomorphic to set B if there is a bijective recursive function f such that f(A)=B.

A spigot algorithm is an algorithm which generates digits of a quantity one at a time without using or requiring previously computed digits. Amazingly, spigot algorithms are ...

2^(40)=1024^4=1099511627776 bytes. Although the term terabyte is sometimes used to refer to 1024^4 bytes, such usage is deprecated in favor of the standard SI naming ...

One trillion (10^(12)) bytes. Unfortunately, the term is sometimes also used to mean 2^(40)=1024^4=1099511627776 bytes. However, this usage is deprecated, and the term ...
