He felt differently about the Muslim leader Muhammed Ali Jinnah, but was aware of his power, stating " If it could be said that any single man held the future of India in the palm of his hand in 1947, that man was Mohammad Ali Jinnah.

If the pane is not a good insulator ( such as a single pane window ), water vapour condenses on the glass forming patterns.

If the symbol width is n, the codes of width n + 1 fall naturally into two blocks: the lower block of 2 < sup > n </ sup > codes for coding single symbols, and the upper block of 2 < sup > n </ sup > codes that will be used by the decoder for sequences of length greater than one.

If the units b are single bits, then F ( S, b ) could be, for instance

If only because there was a much smaller number of skilled artists, the quantity of icons, in the sense of panel paintings, was much smaller in the West, and in most Western settings a single diptych as an altarpiece, or in a domestic room, probably stood in place of the larger collections typical of Orthodox " icon corners ".

If the low-order bit is 0, the remaining 7 bits of the DSAP specify an individual address, which refers to a single local service access point ( LSAP ) to which the packet should be delivered.

If desired, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon drained crushed pineapple.

If the Af bond is linear then there are three reasonable positions for the hydrogen atoms: ( 1 ) The hydrogen atoms are centered and hence all lie on a sheet midway between the oxygen sheets ; ;

If, in a certain part of the range, it starts life 1 foot longer than do any of the other ( relatively large ) giants, and reaches maturity at, let us guess, 18 inches longer than the others, a quadrupling of the maturity length would result in a maximum of ( nearly ) 40 feet.

If, at any time during the assignment pass, the compiler finds that there are no more index words available for assignment, the warning message `` No More Index Words Available '' will be placed in the object program listing, the table will be altered to show that index words 1 through 96 are available, and the assignment will continue as before.

If the compiler finds that there are no more electronic switches available for assignment, the warning message `` No More Electronic Switches Available '' will be placed in the object program listing, the table will be altered to show that electronic switches 1 through 30 are available, and assignment will continue as before.

Theorem: If K < sub > 1 </ sub > and K < sub > 2 </ sub > are the complexity functions relative to description languages L < sub > 1 </ sub > and L < sub > 2 </ sub >, then there is a constant c – which depends only on the languages L < sub > 1 </ sub > and L < sub > 2 </ sub > chosen – such that

If more than one player selects a tile in that row, then the player whose tile is in the leftmost column ( closest to 1 ) goes first.

If the color were fully green, its RGBA would be ( 0, 1, 0, 0. 5 ).

* If the balance factor of R is + 1, two different rotations are needed.

If there is refraction at a collective spherical surface, or through a thin positive lens, O ' 2 will lie in front of O ' 1 so long as the angle u2 is greater than u1 ( under correction ); and conversely with a dispersive surface or lenses ( over correction ).

If the angle u1 is very small, O ' 1 is the Gaussian image ; and O ' 1 O ' 2 is termed the longitudinal aberration, and O ' 1R the lateral aberration of the pencils with aperture u2.

If the pencil with the angle u2 is that of the maximum aberration of all the pencils transmitted, then in a plane perpendicular to the axis at O ' 1 there is a circular disk of confusion of radius O ' 1R, and in a parallel plane at O ' 2 another one of radius O ' 2R2 ; between these two is situated the disk of least confusion.

If the object point O is infinitely distant, u1 and u2 are to be replaced by h1 and h2, the perpendicular heights of incidence ; the sine condition then becomes sin u ' 1 / h1 = sin u ' 2 / h2.

If the function R is well-defined, its value must lie in the range, with 1 indicating perfect correlation and − 1 indicating perfect anti-correlation.
