  2. C (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)

    For example, the GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library, the GNU Scientific Library, Mathematica, and MATLAB are completely or partially written in C. Many languages support calling library functions in C, for example, the Python -based framework NumPy uses C for the high-performance and hardware-interacting aspects.

  3. Bootstrapping (compilers) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(compilers)

    Stage 1: the bootstrap compiler is produced. This compiler is enough to translate its own source into a program which can be executed on the target machine. At this point, all further development is done using the language defined by the bootstrap compiler, and stage 2 begins. Stage 2: a full compiler is produced by the bootstrap compiler.

  4. Bootloader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootloader

    A bootloader, also spelled as boot loader [1] [2] or called bootstrap loader, is a computer program that is responsible for booting a computer. If it also provides an interactive menu with multiple boot choices then it's often called a boot manager .

  6. Bootstrapping (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(electronics)

    Bootstrap capacitors C1 and C2 in a BJT emitter follower circuit. In analog circuit designs, a bootstrap circuit is an arrangement of components deliberately intended to alter the input impedance of a circuit. Usually it is intended to increase the impedance, by using a small amount of positive feedback, usually over two stages.

  7. Booting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting

    Boot is short for bootstrap [1] [2] or bootstrap load and derives from the phrase to pull oneself up by one's bootstraps. [3] [4] The usage calls attention to the requirement that, if most software is loaded onto a computer by other software already running on the computer, some mechanism must exist to load the initial software onto the ...

  8. Statistical hypothesis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_hypothesis_test

    A bootstrap creates numerous simulated samples by randomly resampling (with replacement) the original, combined sample data, assuming the null hypothesis is correct. The bootstrap is very versatile as it is distribution-free and it does not rely on restrictive parametric assumptions, but rather on empirical approximate methods with asymptotic ...

  9. Bootstrapping (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(finance)

    Here, the term structure of spot returns is recovered from the bond yields by solving for them recursively, by forward substitution: this iterative process is called the bootstrap method. The usefulness of bootstrapping is that using only a few carefully selected zero-coupon products, it becomes possible to derive par swap rates (forward and ...
