quadratic

That is yet another section of the article, the thousand years clearly reference the edit distance, which is quadratic.

Those are sort of important considerations, because it can mean the difference between a linear fibs and a quadratic fibs, or an O(nlogn) sort and a O(n²) sort.

From 1998 [1] that the biggest gap in this model between quantum and classical was quadratic.

Even writing your own program that would compute the Quadratic Equation was banned because it was unfair to students who couldn't.

The dictionary implementation of Python is a hash table using open addressing with quadratic probing.

Secondly, one of the big problems that quadratic voting addresses is when an ambivalent majority outweighs a minority simply because everyone votes.

The codebase complexity seems to scale linearly with actions and stores, other frameworks felt more like quadratic (jk, don't respond to that).

The hardest part was figuring out how to convert ellipse sections and AutoCAD bulge arcs (line + bulge factor) to quadratic bezier curves.

For example, it would be great to add quadratic easing to animations in your UI without having to modify the animation code directly.

The reason I said iterative optimization algorithms can be used for regression because linear regression is a quadratic optimization problem.

It can be said that we have a good handle on quadratic optimization problems, hence the multitude of algorithm choices.

I suspect most students would use the quadratic formula and not complete the square by hand.

From 1984 [2] that the biggest randomized/classical gap was something like N^0.75 (they got quadratic) The reason I call these "major" is perhaps not exciting to people outside of academia: smart people tried to do better than [1] and [2] but couldn't for > 10 years.

Quadratic voting is much better if we have to reach a consensus and want to protect minorities.
