Complement Operator (regular Expressions)
A regular expression (shortened as regex or regexp), sometimes referred to as rational expression, is a sequence of characters that specifies a match pattern in text. Usually such patterns are used by string-searching algorithms for "find" or "find and replace" operations on strings, or for input validation. Regular expression techniques are developed in theoretical computer science and formal language theory. The concept of regular expressions began in the 1950s, when the American mathematician Stephen Cole Kleene formalized the concept of a regular language. They came into common use with Unix text-processing utilities. Different syntaxes for writing regular expressions have existed since the 1980s, one being the POSIX standard and another, widely used, being the Perl syntax. Regular expressions are used in search engines, in search and replace dialogs of word processors and text editors, in text processing utilities such as sed and AWK, and in lexical an ...

Bitwise Complement
In computer programming, a bitwise operation operates on a bit string, a bit array or a binary numeral (considered as a bit string) at the level of its individual bits. It is a fast and simple action, basic to the higher-level arithmetic operations and directly supported by the central processing unit, processor. Most bitwise operations are presented as two-operand instructions where the result replaces one of the input operands. On simple low-cost processors, typically, bitwise operations are substantially faster than division, several times faster than multiplication, and sometimes significantly faster than addition. While modern processors usually perform addition and multiplication just as fast as bitwise operations due to their longer instruction pipelines and other computer architecture, architectural design choices, bitwise operations do commonly use less power because of the reduced use of resources. Bitwise operators In the explanations below, any indication of a bit's p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Logical Complement
In logic, negation, also called the logical not or logical complement, is an operation that takes a proposition P to another proposition "not P", written \neg P, \mathord P, P^\prime or \overline. It is interpreted intuitively as being true when P is false, and false when P is true. For example, if P is "Spot runs", then "not P" is "Spot does not run". An operand of a negation is called a ''negand'' or ''negatum''. Negation is a unary logical connective. It may furthermore be applied not only to propositions, but also to notions, truth values, or semantic values more generally. In classical logic, negation is normally identified with the truth function that takes ''truth'' to ''falsity'' (and vice versa). In intuitionistic logic, according to the Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov interpretation, the negation of a proposition P is the proposition whose proofs are the refutations of P. Definition ''Classical negation'' is an operation on one logical value, typically th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Complementary Event
In probability theory, the complement of any event ''A'' is the event ot ''A'' i.e. the event that ''A'' does not occur.Robert R. Johnson, Patricia J. Kuby: ''Elementary Statistics''. Cengage Learning 2007, , p. 229 () The event ''A'' and its complement ot ''A''are mutually exclusive and exhaustive. Generally, there is only one event ''B'' such that ''A'' and ''B'' are both mutually exclusive and exhaustive; that event is the complement of ''A''. The complement of an event ''A'' is usually denoted as ''A′'', ''Ac'', \neg''A'' or '. Given an event, the event and its complementary event define a Bernoulli trial: did the event occur or not? For example, if a typical coin is tossed and one assumes that it cannot land on its edge, then it can either land showing "heads" or "tails." Because these two outcomes are mutually exclusive (i.e. the coin cannot simultaneously show both heads and tails) and collectively exhaustive (i.e. there are no other possible outcom ...

Complement (set Theory)
In set theory, the complement of a Set (mathematics), set , often denoted by A^c (or ), is the set of Element (mathematics), elements not in . When all elements in the Universe (set theory), universe, i.e. all elements under consideration, are considered to be Element (mathematics), members of a given set , the absolute complement of is the set of elements in that are not in . The relative complement of with respect to a set , also termed the set difference of and , written B \setminus A, is the set of elements in that are not in . Absolute complement Definition If is a set, then the absolute complement of (or simply the complement of ) is the set of elements not in (within a larger set that is implicitly defined). In other words, let be a set that contains all the elements under study; if there is no need to mention , either because it has been previously specified, or it is obvious and unique, then the absolute complement of is the relative complement of in : ...

Centroid
In mathematics and physics, the centroid, also known as geometric center or center of figure, of a plane figure or solid figure is the arithmetic mean position of all the points in the figure. The same definition extends to any object in n-dimensional Euclidean space. In geometry, one often assumes uniform mass density, in which case the '' barycenter'' or ''center of mass'' coincides with the centroid. Informally, it can be understood as the point at which a cutout of the shape (with uniformly distributed mass) could be perfectly balanced on the tip of a pin. In physics, if variations in gravity are considered, then a '' center of gravity'' can be defined as the weighted mean of all points weighted by their specific weight. In geography, the centroid of a radial projection of a region of the Earth's surface to sea level is the region's geographical center. History The term "centroid" was coined in 1814. It is used as a substitute for the older terms "center of grav ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Knot Complement
In mathematics, the knot complement of a tame knot ''K'' is the space where the knot is not. If a knot is embedded in the 3-sphere, then the complement is the 3-sphere minus the space near the knot. To make this precise, suppose that ''K'' is a knot in a three-manifold ''M'' (most often, ''M'' is the 3-sphere). Let ''N'' be a tubular neighborhood of ''K''; so ''N'' is a solid torus. The knot complement is then the complement of ''N'', :X_K = M - \mbox(N). The knot complement ''XK'' is a compact 3-manifold; the boundary of ''XK'' and the boundary of the neighborhood ''N'' are homeomorphic to a two-torus In geometry, a torus (: tori or toruses) is a surface of revolution generated by revolving a circle in three-dimensional space one full revolution about an axis that is coplanarity, coplanar with the circle. The main types of toruses inclu .... Sometimes the ambient manifold ''M'' is understood to be the 3-sphere. Context is needed to determine the usage. T ...

Angular Complement
In Euclidean geometry, an angle can refer to a number of concepts relating to the intersection of two straight lines at a point. Formally, an angle is a figure lying in a plane formed by two rays, called the '' sides'' of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the '' vertex'' of the angle. More generally angles are also formed wherever two lines, rays or line segments come together, such as at the corners of triangles and other polygons. An angle can be considered as the region of the plane bounded by the sides. Angles can also be formed by the intersection of two planes or by two intersecting curves, in which case the rays lying tangent to each curve at the point of intersection define the angle. The term ''angle'' is also used for the size, magnitude or quantity of these types of geometric figures and in this context an angle consists of a number and unit of measurement. Angular measure or measure of angle are sometimes used to distinguish between the measurement ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Complemented Lattice
In the mathematics, mathematical discipline of order theory, a complemented lattice is a bounded lattice (order), lattice (with least element 0 and greatest element 1), in which every element ''a'' has a complement, i.e. an element ''b'' satisfying ''a'' ∨ ''b'' = 1 and ''a'' ∧ ''b'' = 0. Complements need not be unique. A relatively complemented lattice is a lattice such that every Interval (partial order), interval [''c'', ''d''], viewed as a bounded lattice in its own right, is a complemented lattice. An orthocomplementation on a complemented lattice is an involution (mathematics), involution that is order-reversing and maps each element to a complement. An orthocomplemented lattice satisfying a weak form of the modular lattice, modular law is called an orthomodular lattice. In bounded distributive lattices, complements are unique. Every complemented distributive lattice has a unique orthocomplementation and is in fact a Boolean ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Self-complementary Graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a self-complementary graph is a graph which is isomorphic to its complement. The simplest non-trivial self-complementary graphs are the path graph and the cycle graph. There is no known characterization of self-complementary graphs. Examples Every Paley graph is self-complementary. For example, the 3 × 3 rook's graph (the Paley graph of order nine) is self-complementary, by a symmetry that keeps the center vertex in place but exchanges the roles of the four side midpoints and four corners of the grid. All strongly regular self-complementary graphs with fewer than 37 vertices are Paley graphs; however, there are strongly regular graphs on 37, 41, and 49 vertices that are not Paley graphs. The Rado graph is an infinite self-complementary graph. Properties An self-complementary graph has exactly half as many edges of the complete graph, i.e., edges, and (if there is more than one vertex) it must have diameter ...

Complement Graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the complement or inverse of a graph is a graph on the same vertices such that two distinct vertices of are adjacent if and only if they are not adjacent in . That is, to generate the complement of a graph, one fills in all the missing edges required to form a complete graph, and removes all the edges that were previously there.. The complement is not the set complement of the graph; only the edges are complemented. Definition Let be a simple graph and let consist of all 2-element subsets of . Then is the complement of , where is the relative complement of in . For directed graphs, the complement can be defined in the same way, as a directed graph on the same vertex set, using the set of all 2-element ordered pairs of in place of the set in the formula above. In terms of the adjacency matrix ''A'' of the graph, if ''Q'' is the adjacency matrix of the complete graph of the same number of vertices (i.e. all entries ar ...
