https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection%20%28mathematics%29 | In mathematics, a projection is an idempotent mapping of a set (or other mathematical structure) into a subset (or sub-structure). In this case, idempotent means that projecting twice is the same as projecting once. The restriction to a subspace of a projection is also called a projection, even if the idempotence pro... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified%20internal%20rate%20of%20return | The modified internal rate of return (MIRR) is a financial measure of an investment's attractiveness. It is used in capital budgeting to rank alternative investments of equal size. As the name implies, MIRR is a modification of the internal rate of return (IRR) and as such aims to resolve some problems with the IRR.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple%20%28mathematics%29 | In mathematics, a multiple is the product of any quantity and an integer. In other words, for the quantities a and b, it can be said that b is a multiple of a if b = na for some integer n, which is called the multiplier. If a is not zero, this is equivalent to saying that is an integer.
When a and b are both integers... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection%20%28set%20theory%29 | In set theory, a projection is one of two closely related types of functions or operations, namely:
A set-theoretic operation typified by the th projection map, written that takes an element of the Cartesian product to the value
A function that sends an element to its equivalence class under a specified equival... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal%20virulence | Optimal virulence is a concept relating to the ecology of hosts and parasites. One definition of virulence is the host's parasite-induced loss of fitness. The parasite's fitness is determined by its success in transmitting offspring to other hosts. For about 100 years, the consensus was that virulence decreased and par... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb%20temperature | The wet-bulb temperature (WBT) is the temperature read by a thermometer covered in water-soaked (water at ambient temperature) cloth (a wet-bulb thermometer) over which air is passed. At 100% relative humidity, the wet-bulb temperature is equal to the air temperature (dry-bulb temperature); at lower humidity the wet-bu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%20fractal | The Newton fractal is a boundary set in the complex plane which is characterized by Newton's method applied to a fixed polynomial or transcendental function. It is the Julia set of the meromorphic function which is given by Newton's method. When there are no attractive cycles (of order greater than 1), it divides the... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon%20word | In mathematics, in the areas of combinatorics and computer science, a Lyndon word is a nonempty string that is strictly smaller in lexicographic order than all of its rotations. Lyndon words are named after mathematician Roger Lyndon, who investigated them in 1954, calling them standard lexicographic sequences. Anatoly... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero%20suppression | Zero suppression is the removal of redundant zeroes from a number. This can be done for storage, page or display space constraints or formatting reasons, such as making a letter more legible.
