Example sentences for: zeros

How can you use “zeros” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • I helped my clients swallow up competitors so they could add more zeros to the bottom line, and for this I would become rich.

  • , digits other than place-holder zeros) beyond the level of precision of your estimate.

  • First, the abrupt end of the original data set followed by a string of zeros creates a sharp discontinuity and this artifact can cause problems in the resultant spectrum in the form of "side lobes" [ 47 48 ] . One strategy for addressing this problem is to apply so-called smoothing or weighting functions to make the drop to zero less precipitous and reduce the appearance in the spectrum of the resultant artifactual bands called side-lobes [ 47 48 37 ] . But techniques for side-lobe suppression are in themselves problematic.

  • Alternatively, the data may be transformed directly, but with a computational shortcut called the Fast Fourier Transform, or FFT [ 47 ] . For this method the number of data points must be a power of two (2 N; [ 37 ] ). Obtaining exactly 2 Ndata points is not always possible for experimental reasons so the convention has been to extend the data set by adding zeros out to the next higher integer power of 2. Zeros are also often added beyond this point to increase resolution (see discussion on resolution below [ 37 ] ).

  • A comparative study has found that this k -nearest neighbors method performs better than filling missing values with zeros or the averages of that gene in other experiments [ 18].
