Documentation: Citing Sources of Borrowed Information When you write a technical report, you can and should borrow information like crazyto make it legal, all you have to do is "document" it. If your report makes you sound like a rocket scientist but there's not a single source citation in it and you haven't even taken college physics yet, people are going to start wondering. (In Night Court , you'd be guilty of plagiarism. Finean F on the paper in question.) However, if you take that same report and load it up properly with source citations (those little indicators that show that you are borrowing information and from whom), everybody is all the more impressedplus they're not secretly thinking you're a shady character. A documented report (one that has source indicators in it) says to readers that you've done your homework, that you're up on this field, that you approach these things professionallythat you are no slouch.

2.4. The Real Number System IRA In the previous chapter we have defined the integers and rational numbers based on the natural numbers and equivalence relations. We have also used the real numbers as our prime example of an uncountable set. In this section we will actually define - mathematically correct - the 'real numbers' and establish their most important properties. There are actually several convenient ways to define R . Two possible methods of construction are: Construction of R via Dedekind’s cuts Construction of R classes via equivalence of Cauchy sequences . Right now, however, it will be more important to describe those properties of R that we will need for the remainder of this class. The first question is: why do we need the real numbers ? Aren’t the rationals good enough ? Theorem 2.4.1: No Square Roots in Q There is no rational number x such that x = x * x = 2 Proof Thus, we see that even simple equations have no solution if all we knew were rational numbers. We therefore need to expand our number system to contain numbers which do provide a solution to equations such as the above. There is another reason for preferring real over rational numbers: Informally speaking, while the rational numbers are all 'over the place', they contain plenty of holes (namely the irrationals). The real numbers, on the other hand, contain no holes. A little bit more formal, we could say that the rational numbers are not closed under the limit operations, while the real numbers are. More formally speaking, we need some definitions.

69. Julian Day Numbers The Julian day number system is sometimes (erroneously) said to have been inventedby Joseph Justus Scaliger (born 154008-05 JC in Agen, France, died 1609-01 http://www.hermetic.ch/cal_stud/jdn.htm

Julian Day Numbers by Peter Meyer Introduction The Julian Period Julian Day Number Astronomical Julian Day Number ... Conversion Algorithms 1. Introduction Powered by Bravenet Just as a Gregorian date is a date in the Gregorian Calendar, a Julian date is a date in the Julian Calendar. (For more on these calendars see The Julian and Gregorian Calendars ). Astronomers sometimes use the term "Julian date" in another sense, according to which it is related to what is called a "Julian day number". Such a use of the term "Julian date" makes it ambiguous, but the meaning is usually clear from the context. In this article the notion of the Julian day number will be explained, along with various meanings of the term Julian date. According to the system of numbering days called Julian day numbers , used by astronomers and calendricists (those who study calendars, unfortunately not for a living), the temporal sequence of days is mapped onto the sequence of integers, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. This makes it easy to determine the number of days between two dates (just subtract one Julian day number from the other). For example, a solar eclipse was seen at Nineveh on June 15, 763 B.C. (Julian Calendar), according to the Assyrian chronicles in the British Museum, and a lunar eclipse occurred there on the night of April 14-15, 425 B.C. (Julian Calendar). (The

Class Contents Constructing the Real Number System Existence Uniqueness In Chapter 2 , we introduced the real numbers as an ordered field with the least upper bound property. Everything that we did subsequently with R has been a consequence of this description. Yet there are two serious flaws with it, which it is our job to patch here: existence, and uniqueness. Existence It's all very fine to say that R is a field with certain properties, but that begs the question whether any such field exists. After all, one might build up a beautiful theory around a field of six elements, but it would be no good since no such field exists. Can you prove it? Uniqueness Suppose there were many ordered fields with the least upper bound property. Your "real number system" might not be the same as mine. Might there be useful theorems that held for one ordered field with the least upper bound property that don't hold for others? Which would be the "right" one? Fortunately, as we asserted in Theorem 2.2

The internationally standardized method for determination of alpha-amylase activity. The Falling Number System measures the alpha-amylase enzyme activity in grain meal and flour to detect sprout damage, optimise flour enzyme activity and guarantee soundness of traded grain. ICC/No. 107/1, AACC/No. 56-81B, ISO/No. ISO/DIS 3093. The principle of the Falling Number method is to use the starch contained in the sample as a substrate. The starch is rapidly gelatinized when the test tube with the sample suspended in water is inserted in a boiling water bath. Subsequently the alpha-amylase enzyme in the sample starts to liquefy the starch and the speed of liquefaction is dependant on the alpha-amylase activity. A high activity gives a faster liquefaction, which results in a lower Falling Number result and vice versa.

72. Galileo And Einstein: Babylon around! Their number system has only two basic elements, the firstof which is clear on examining the first nine numbers Evidently http://galileoandeinstein.physics.virginia.edu/lectures/babylon.html

Michael Fowler UVa Physics Department Index of Lectures and Overview of the Course The Earliest Written Language Sumer and Babylonia , located in present-day Iraq, were probably the first peoples to have a written language, beginning in Sumer in about 3100 BC. The language continued to be written until the time of Christ, but then it was completely forgotten, even the name Sumer became unknown until the nineteenth century. From the earliest times, the language was used for business and administrative documents. Later, it was used for writing down epics, myths, etc., which had earlier probably been handed down by oral tradition, such as the Epic of Gilgamesh. Weights and Measures: 60s everywhere! In about 2500 BC, by Royal Edict, weights and measures were standardized in Babylon. This was a practical business decision, which without doubt eliminated much tension in the marketplace. The smallest unit of length was the finger, about 2/3 of an inch. The cubit was 30 fingers. The cord (surveyor's rope) was 120 cubits, that is, 3600 fingers. The league was 180 cords, about seven miles. By 2000 BC, there was a calendar with a year of 360 days, 12 months of 30 days each, with an extra month thrown in every six years or so to keep synchronized with astronomical observations.

75. The Ancient Egyptian Number System Column Banner Egyptology The Ancient Egyptian number system. by CarolineSeawright March 19, 2001 The Ancient Egyptian number system. http://www.thekeep.org/~kunoichi/kunoichi/themestream/egypt_maths.html

The Ancient Egyptian Number System by Caroline Seawright March 19, 2001 The Ancient Egyptian Number System In ancient Egypt mathematics was used for measuring time, straight lines, the level of the Nile floodings, calculating areas of land, counting money, working out taxes and cooking. Maths was even used in mythology - the Egyptians figured out the numbers of days in the year with their calendar . They were one of the ancient peoples who got it closest to the 'true year', though their mathematical skills. Maths was also used with fantastic results for building tombs, pyramids and other architectural marvels. A part of the largest surviving mathematical scroll, the Rhind Papyrus (written in hieratic script), asks questions about the geometry of triangles. It is, in essence, a mathematical text book. The surviving parts of the papyrus show how the Egyptian engineers calculated the proportions of pyramids as well as other structures. Originally, this papyrus was five meters long and thirty three centimeters tall. It is again to the Nile Valley that we must look for evidence of the early influence on Greek mathematics. With respect to geometry, the commentators are unanimous: the mathematician-priests of the Nile Valley knew no peer. The geometry of Pythagoras, Eudoxus, Plato, and Euclid was learned in Nile Valley temples. Four mathematical papyri still survive, most importantly the Rhind mathematical papyrus dating to 1832 B.C. Not only do these papyri show that the priests had mastered all the processes of arithmetic, including a theory of number, but had developed formulas enabling them to find solutions of problems with one and two unknowns, along with "think of a number problems." With all of this plus the arithmetic and geometric progressions they discovered, it is evident that by 1832 B.C., algebra was in place in the Nile Valley.

The Health Industry Number System (HIN Your address on the information super highway. Everyone needs an "address" on the information highway. The HIN , assigned by HIBCC to every health care provider facility in the United States, is designed to serve that purpose. The HIN was created as universal identification number to be used by all trading partners when they communicate with each other via computer. By using the HIN, each partner can rapidly match information it receives to its own customer list whenever it shares or exchanges information with others. As a consequence, expensive and inefficient administrative cross-referencing tasks are eliminated. As a randomly assigned, nine-character, alpha-numeric identifier, HIN is extremely flexible. It can identify not only specific health care facilities, but also specific locations and/or departments within them. The HIN system was designed to allow subscribers the ability to customize HIN use with their specific trading partners, while still maintaining standard formats the rest of the industry can recognize. In this manner, HIBCC has thus created a system which simultaneously imposes the necessary rigidities of a centralized standard while meeting the needs of individual users to alter components when necessary.
