Within certain wide limits anatomy dictates function and, if one is permitted to speculate, potential pathology should be included in this statement as well.

For a statement of costs per kilowatt-hour would ignore the fact that many of these costs are not a function of kilowatt-hour output ( or consumption ) of energy.

The statement of the axiom of choice does not specify whether the collection of nonempty sets is finite or infinite, and thus implies that every finite collection of nonempty sets has a choice function.

Similar to other functional programming languages, the result of a function is the value of the last expression evaluated — there is no explicit “ return ” statement.

The following function returns the value of the “ if ” statement ( statements, too, produce results ), which evaluates to the value of either “ 1 ” or “ n * factorial ( n-1 )”:

' A paper by Susan Isaacs ( 1952 ) on " The nature and function of Phantasy "... has been generally accepted by the Klein group in London as a fundamental statement of their position '.

Functions can only be defined using the single line < mathematical function of x > statement ( e. g., ).

Thus, the statement that f is an idempotent unary operation on S is equivalent to the statement that f is an idempotent element with respect to the function composition operation ∘ on functions from S to S.

Dewey's most significant writings were " The Reflex Arc Concept in Psychology " ( 1896 ), a critique of a standard psychological concept and the basis of all his further work ; Democracy and Education ( 1916 ), his celebrated work on progressive education ; Human Nature and Conduct ( 1922 ), a study of the function of habit in human behavior ; The Public and its Problems ( 1927 ), a defense of democracy written in response to Walter Lippmann's The Phantom Public ( 1925 ); Experience and Nature ( 1925 ), Dewey's most " metaphysical " statement ; Art as Experience ( 1934 ), Dewey's major work on aesthetics ; A Common Faith ( 1934 ), a humanistic study of religion originally delivered as the Dwight H. Terry Lectureship at Yale ; Logic: The Theory of Inquiry ( 1938 ), a statement of Dewey's unusual conception of logic ; Freedom and Culture ( 1939 ), a political work examining the roots of fascism ; and Knowing and the Known ( 1949 ), a book written in conjunction with Arthur F. Bentley that systematically outlines the concept of trans-action, which is central to his other works.

Such a statement trivializes an important function of such a manner of bearing the sword.

This laid the foundation for a series of actions aiming to continue closing the access gap for minorities of virtually all categories in the decades to come, the most important of which was President John Brooks Slaughter's institution of the college's " mission statement ," an organizational declaration around which the entire college would function and aspire to both academic excellence and equity.

* The statement, which defines a function or method.

* The statement, which returns a value from a generator function.

A more rigorous statement is that the total wave function for two identical fermions is anti-symmetric with respect to exchange of the particles.

Since there is a one-to-one correspondence between Borel regular measures in the interval and functions of bounded variation ( that assigns to each function of bounded variation the corresponding Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure, and the integral with respect to the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure agrees with the Riemann-Stieltjes integral for continuous functions ), the above stated theorem generalizes the original statement of F. Riesz.

According to a 1996 statement from the American Association of Physical Anthropologists, although heredity influences behavior in individuals, it does not affect the ability of a population to function in any social setting, all peoples " possess equal biological ability to assimilate any human culture " and " racist political doctrines find no foundation in scientific knowledge concerning modern or past human populations.

For example, the Mertens conjecture is a statement about natural numbers that is now known to be false, but no explicit counterexample ( i. e., a natural number n for which the Mertens function M ( n ) equals or exceeds the square root of n ) is known: all numbers less than 10 < sup > 14 </ sup > have the Mertens property, and the smallest number which does not have this property is only known to be less than the exponential of 1. 59 × 10 < sup > 40 </ sup >, which is approximately 10 to the power 4. 3 × 10 < sup > 39 </ sup >.

VBScript distinguishes between a function, which can return a result in an assignment statement, and a subroutine, which cannot.

# Populate the recordset by opening it and passing the desired table name or SQL statement as a parameter to open function.

The Preliminary Note of Explanation did not in fact alter the value of the statement on collegiality in the text of Lumen Gentium: it " strengthened the adherence to the doctrine of the First Vatican Council on the primacy, but it did not subsequently strike out anything from the direct divine origin of the episcopal office and its function, and the responsibility of the College of Bishops for the Universal Church.

For this reason, the " statement " is an existence function for discursive meaning.

It's also been suggested that the most important function of vitamin E is in cell signaling ( and, that it may not have a significant role in antioxidant metabolism ).

) It's unknown, however, whether such descriptive dynamics impart any important computational function.

It's safe to carry an F or FS Beretta 80 series in this condition because from the B series on they have an firing pin block / safety and the safety function wasn't changed with later models from the B series on.

It's important to be aware that a declaration of a function does not need to include a prototype.

While man shares this procreative function with all his predecessors in the evolutionary process, he is the only animal with a true non-instinctive and conscious creative ability.

Other terms with this type of ambiguity are: satisfiable, true, false, function, property, class, relation, cardinal, and ordinal.

( Slightly more generally, this is true for an upper semicontinuous function.

The true and final aim of thought coercion is to induce a change in the victim ’ s objective function itself, i. e. the basic set of values and rules by which the victim determines his or her own choice among the alternatives of any feasible set.

To see that this is true, compute the characteristic function of the sample mean:

If a function that is not injective is applied to both sides of a true equation, then the resulting equation will still be true, but it may be less useful.

* Filter ( higher-order function ), a higher-order function that processes a data structure ( typically a list ) in some order to produce a new data structure containing exactly those elements of the original data structure for which a given predicate returns the boolean value true

This is true since the von Mangoldt function satisfies the identity

A good randomizing function is ( barring computational efficiency concerns ) generally a good choice as a hash function, but the converse need not be true.

The second issue is the amount of training data available relative to the complexity of the " true " function ( classifier or regression function ).

If the true function is simple, then an " inflexible " learning algorithm with high bias and low variance will be able to learn it from a small amount of data.

But if the true function is highly complex ( e. g., because it involves complex interactions among many different input features and behaves differently in different parts of the input space ), then the function will only be learnable from a very large amount of training data and using a " flexible " learning algorithm with low bias and high variance.

If the input feature vectors have very high dimension, the learning problem can be difficult even if the true function only depends on a small number of those features.

An " extensional stance " and restriction to a second-order predicate logic means that a propositional function extended to all individuals such as " All ' x ' are blue " now has to list all of the ' x ' that satisfy ( are true in ) the proposition, listing them in a possibly infinite conjunction: e. g. x < sub > 1 </ sub > V x < sub > 2 </ sub > V.

The queue “ size ” function would return the length of the line, and the “ empty ” function would return true only if there was nothing in the line.

While all primitive recursive functions are total, this is not true of partial recursive functions ; for example, the minimisation of the successor function is undefined.

if E > U ( z ), which is true for a wave function inside the tip or inside the sample.

For water, however, this is not true because the melting point of ordinary ice decreases as a function of pressure, as shown by the dotted green line in the phase diagram.
