square-root method
1Square root — Measured fall time of a small steel sphere falling from various heights. The data is in good agreement with the predicted fall time of , where h is the height and g is the acceleration of gravity. In mathematics, a square root of a number x is a… …
2Square root of a matrix — In mathematics, the square root of a matrix extends the notion of square root from numbers to matrices. A matrix B is said to be a square root of A if the matrix product B · B is equal to A.[1] Contents 1 Properties 2 Computation methods …
3Square root of 2 — The square root of 2, also known as Pythagoras constant, often denoted by:sqrt{2} or √2but can also be written as:2^{1/2},,is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number 2. Its numerical value approximated to 65… …
4Square root of 5 — The square root of 5 is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the prime number 5. This number appears in the formula for the golden ratio. It can be denoted in surd form as::sqrt{5}.It is an irrational algebraic number.… …
5Integer square root — In number theory, the integer square root (isqrt) of a positive integer n is the positive integer m which is the greatest integer less than or equal to the square root of n ,: mbox{isqrt}( n ) = lfloor sqrt n floor.For example, mbox{isqrt}(27) =… …
6Root-finding algorithm — A root finding algorithm is a numerical method, or algorithm, for finding a value x such that f(x) = 0, for a given function f. Such an x is called a root of the function f. This article is concerned with finding scalar, real or complex roots,… …
7Root mean square — In mathematics, the root mean square (abbreviated RMS or rms), also known as the quadratic mean, is a statistical measure of the magnitude of a varying quantity. It is especially useful when variates are positive and negative, e.g., sinusoids.It… …
8Root-mean-square deviation — For the application of root mean square deviation to bioinformatics, see Root mean square deviation (bioinformatics). The root mean square deviation (RMSD) or root mean square error (RMSE) is a frequently used measure of the differences between… …
9Root mean square deviation — The root mean square deviation (RMSD) ( also root mean square error (RMSE) ) is a frequently used measure of the differences between values predicted by a model or an estimator and the values actually observed from the thing being modeled or… …
10root mean square — (rms) a notation used after various measurements to indicate that the root mean square method has been used to measure or compute an average value for the measurement. Usually the quantity being measured varies in a periodic way; typical… …
