10^(18) bytes. Unfortunately, the term is sometimes also used to mean 2^(60)=1024^6 bytes. However, the latter usage is deprecated, and the term exbibyte is preferred for ...

A quantity is said to be exact if it has a precise and well-defined value. J. W. Tukey remarked in 1962, "Far better an approximate answer to the right question, which is ...

A system of congruences a_i mod n_i with 1<=i<=k is called a complete residue system (or covering system) if every integer y satisfies y=a_i (mod n) for at least one value of ...

A 1-form w is said to be exact in a region R if there is a function f that is defined and of class C^1 (i.e., is once continuously differentiable in R) and such that df=w.

As used in physics, the term "exact" generally refers to a solution that captures the entire physics and mathematics of a problem as opposed to one that is approximate, ...

"Exactly one" means "one and only one," sometimes also referred to as "just one" or "one and only one." J. H. Conway has also humorously suggested "onee" (one and only one) ...

2^(60)=1024^6 bytes. Although the term exabyte is sometimes used to refer to 1024^6 bytes, such usage is deprecated in favor of the standard SI naming convention of 1 exabyte ...

A binomial coefficient (N; k) is said to be exceptional if lpf(N; k)>N/k. The following table gives the exception binomial coefficients which are also good binomial ...

A Jordan algebra which is not isomorphic to a subalgebra.

The kurtosis excess of a distribution is sometimes called the excess, or excess coefficient. In graph theory, excess refers to the quantity e=n-n_l(v,g) (1) for a v-regular ...
