The Tower of Hanoi puzzle consists of n disks of distinct sizes distributed across 3 pegs. We will refer to a particular distribution of the disks across the pegs as a state and call it valid if on each peg disks form a pile with the disk sizes decreasing from bottom up. Since each disk can reside at one of 3 pegs, while the order of disks on each peg is uniquely defined by their sizes, the tot...

Eccentric posterior glenoid erosion is a common condition in osteoarthritis. No limits have ever been placed on the degree of eccentric erosion that can be corrected while still maintaining sufficient bone stock to implant a glenoid securely. Five cadaveric scapulae were dissected. Posterior glenoid erosion was created to simulate retroversion of 15 degrees or more. A computed tomography (CT) s...

Previously, we found that C57BL/6J (B6) mice are more prone to develop obesity than PWK mice. In addition, we analyzed reciprocal crosses between these mice and found that (PWK × B6) F1 mice, which have B6 fathers, are more likely to develop dietary obesity than (B6 × PWK) F1 mice, which have B6 mothers. These results suggested that diet-induced obesity is paternally transmitted. In this study,...

Objective: The study aimed to solubilization of imidazole drugs of interest; ketoconazole (KT) and miconazole nitrate (MN), for enhancement of the water solubility, the dissolution properties and the antimycotic activity of these drugs. Method: Different solid dispersion methods were used to prepare various dispersion systems of KT and MN using polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG 4000), polyethylene ...

Mastermind is a famous two-player game, where the codemaker has to choose a secret code and the codebreaker has to guess it in as few questions as possible using information he receives from the codemaker after each guess. In Generalized Black-peg Mastermind for given arbitrary numbers p, c, the secret code consists of p pegs each having one of c colors, and the received information consists on...
