  2. Compa-ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compa-ratio

    Calculation. Compa-ratio is calculated as the employee's current salary divided by the current market rate as defined by the company's competitive pay policy. Compa-ratios are position specific. Each position has a salary range that includes a minimum, a midpoint, and a maximum. These three values represent industry averages for the position.

  3. Midpoint method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_method

    The midpoint method is a refinement of the Euler method. and is derived in a similar manner. The key to deriving Euler's method is the approximate equality. which is obtained from the slope formula. and keeping in mind that. For the midpoint methods, one replaces (3) with the more accurate.

  4. Gauss circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_circle_problem

    This problem is known as the primitive circle problem, as it involves searching for primitive solutions to the original circle problem. It can be intuitively understood as the question of how many trees within a distance of r are visible in the Euclid's orchard , standing in the origin.

  5. Median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median

    The median of a finite list of numbers is the "middle" number, when those numbers are listed in order from smallest to greatest. If the data set has an odd number of observations, the middle one is selected. For example, the following list of seven numbers, has the median of 6, which is the fourth value.

  6. Numerical integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_integration

    e. In analysis, numerical integration comprises a broad family of algorithms for calculating the numerical value of a definite integral . The term numerical quadrature (often abbreviated to quadrature) is more or less a synonym for "numerical integration", especially as applied to one-dimensional integrals.

  7. Buffon's needle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon's_needle_problem

    Buffon's needle was the earliest problem in geometric probability to be solved; [2] it can be solved using integral geometry. The solution for the sought probability p, in the case where the needle length l is not greater than the width t of the strips, is. This can be used to design a Monte Carlo method for approximating the number π ...

  8. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    The same illustration for The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as . Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Their use is also known as "numerical integration", although this term can also refer to ...

    Description. It is assumed that the value of a function f defined on [,] is known at + equally spaced points: < < <.There are two classes of Newton–Cotes quadrature: they are called "closed" when = and =, i.e. they use the function values at the interval endpoints, and "open" when > and <, i.e. they do not use the function values at the endpoints.
