  Divisor function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, and specifically in number theory, a divisor function is an arithmetical function related to the divisors of an integer.
Divisor functions were studied by Ramanujan, who gave a number of important congruences and identities.
The behaviour of the sigma function is irregular.

 Euler's totient function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In number theory, the totient φ(n) of a positive integer n is defined to be the number of positive integers less than or equal to n and coprime to n.
The totient function is important mainly because it gives the size of the multiplicative group of integers modulo n.
The growth of φ(n) as a function of n is an interesting question, since the first impression from small n that φ(n) might be noticeably smaller than n is somewhat misleading.

 Divisors
Divisors are created by naming the divisor group in which they should lie (if that is not otherwise clear) and then giving enough data to identify precisely the divisor in question.
The principal divisor corresponding to f, that is, the divisor of D of zeros and poles of function field element, ambient polynomial or ambient rational polynomial f.
The divisor in the divisor group D corresponding to the differential a.

For example, the greatest common divisor of 14 and 21 is 7.
The first thing we need to know is how to call the greatest common divisor function in Maple.
gcd - greatest common divisor of polynomials lcm - least common multiple of polynomials Calling Sequence: gcd(a,b,'cofa','cofb') lcm(a,b,...) Parameters: a, b - multivariate polynomials over an algebraic number field or an algebraic function field cofa,cofb - (optional) unevaluated names Description: - The gcd function computes the greatest common divisor of two polynomials a and b.

The function fails if the biggest elementary divisor cannot be completely factored and the non-factored part is not a divisor of the biggest elementary divisor only.
If it is not and this function returns an integer, then this is the rank of A for all prime divisors of p.
The idea to make this function useful for non primes was to use it with large factors of the biggest elementary divisor of A whose prime factorization cannot be found easily.

 Class Field Theory
The ray class group modulo D is a quotient of the group of divisors that are coprime to D modulo certain principal divisors.
Since this function uses the class group of the function field in an essential way, it may be necessary for large examples to precompute the class group.
Given an effective divisor D and a subgroup U of the ray class group, (see RayClassGroup), Cl_D of D such that the quotient Cl_D/U is finite, compute defining equations for the corresponding (ray) class field.

People have pointed out that this function is misnamed, because the term "natural number" is usually understood as excluding zero.
As the examples illustrate, shifting the pattern of bits one place to the left produces a number that is twice the value of the previous number.
Note, however that functions do not check for overflow, and a returned value may be negative (and in any case, no more than a 24 bit value) when an integer is sufficiently left shifted.

 Divisors
Given a function field F/k and a divisor D belonging to F/k, return a vector space V and a k-linear mapping h: V longrightarrow F such that V is isomorphic to the Riemann-Roch space (L)(D) subset F under h.
Return the complementary divisor D^# of D. The function field F/k of D must be a finite extension of a rational function field k(x).

Then the theory of (doubly periodic) P functions shows that X is isomorphic to the quotient of C^2 by a lattice, hence to a torus.
Second a rational function defines a map from a smooth projective curve to P^1, which is a branched covering, and again every point of p^1 has the same number of preimages counted properly.
Anyway, from the fact that the quotient of two differentials is a rational function and the fact that the divisor of a rational function is zero, it follws that all differentials on a curve have divisors of the same degree.

 CLHS: Function FLOOR, FFLOOR, CEILING, FCEILING...
ffloor, fceiling, ftruncate, and fround handle arguments of different types in the following way: If number is a float, and divisor is not a float of longer format, then the first result is a float of the same type as number.
When only number is given, the two results are exact; the mathematical sum of the two results is always equal to the mathematical value of number.
(where function is any of one of floor, ceiling, ffloor, fceiling, truncate, round, ftruncate, and fround) return the same first value, but they return different remainders as the second value.

Functions (*note Functions::.) and macros (*note Macros::.) have more complex descriptions; as well as the name of the object being described, they also have a list of parameters which the object will accept.
Special forms (*note Special Forms::.) are described similarly to functions except that the argument list is formatted differently, since special forms are, by definition, more flexible in how they treat their arguments.

To understand how various functions work on integers, especially the bitwise operators (*note Bitwise Operations::.), it is often helpful to view the numbers in their binary form.
The functions `integerp' and `floatp' can take any type of Lisp object as argument (the predicates would not be of much use otherwise); but the `zerop' predicate requires a number as its argument.
For example, (setq foo 4) => 4 (1+ foo) => 5 This function is not analogous to the C operator `++'--it does not increment a variable.

 Only Python: Python as pseudo-code and Optional Static Typing
Yet, one of the strength of Python is its syntax, and many objections (NIMPY as GvR described it) to the proposed addition(s) to the language came from an unease with the suggested syntax.
I will use GvR's version of a Greatest Common Divisor finding function as an example and build from it; the complexity of the examples will increase as we go in an attempt to fully illustrate the suggested syntax.
However, given that the optional static typing proposal is new, it should be looked at objectively, without rejecting off-hand proposals that were rejected in a different context.
