this research was an attempt to study reasons for creation of some of the important and sacred numbers and their reflection in architectural and urban spaces. this subject matter is important because significant and sacred numbers were used in design and construction of a number of historical spaces. the research objective was to discover some of the reasons for formation of important and sacre...

We compare the numeric performance of C, C# and Java on three small cases.

BACKGROUND Cobeljić et al. recently reported a numeric table method to provide precise rotational osteotomy which is a well established orthopaedic procedure. The numeric table requires four pages in length that is rather inconvenient during performing an osteotomy operation. METHODS We thus develop our own method by summarizing the data of the four-page table into a small ruler, which is eas...

The RSA-768 (270 decimal digits) was factored by Kleinjung et al. on December 12, 2009, while the RSA-704 (212 decimal digits) was factored by Bai et al. on July 2, 2012. The RSA-200 (663 bits) was factored by Bahr et al. on May 9, 2005, while he RSA-210 (696 bits) was factored by Propper on September 26, 2013. In this paper the author will discuss an estimation method to approach the lower/upp...

A prominent feature of comparative life histories in fish (and other indeterminate growers) is the approximate invariance across species of certain dimensionless numbers made up from reproductive and timing variables. The two best known are the age at maturity (alpha) divided by the average adult lifespan (E), and the proportion of a body mass given to reproduction per year (c) multiplied by E....

Humans prioritize the processing of threats over neutral stimuli; thus, not surprisingly, the presence of threats has been shown to alter performance on both perceptual and cognitive tasks. Yet whether the quantification process is disrupted in the presence of threat is unknown. In three experiments, we examined numerical estimation and discrimination abilities in adults in the context of threa...

The trial aimed at assessing the effect of frequency harvest, plant population and N.P.K fertilizer Vernonia amygdalina(Bitter leaf) was conducted Teaching Research farm, University Abuja, Nigeria. Split plot treatment arrangement fitted into a randomized complete Block Design (RCBD) with 3 replications used. Plant used were10,000,stands/ha 40,000 stands/ha 4 weeks harvest. Data collected were ...

the influence of leaf pubescence of three wheat cultivars (pishtaz, ghuds and falat) on preference and biological parameters of sipha maydis (passerini) was investigated under greenhouse conditions (25 ± 2 °c, 70 ± 10% rh and 14: 10 h (l: d) photoperiod). the results showed that pishtaz had a greater density of trichomes compared to the other cultivars. in the preference test with whole plant, ...
