Otherwise, replace it with either the largest in its left sub tree ( in order predecessor ) or the smallest in its right sub tree ( in order successor ), and remove that node.

Fanzines are not exclusive to the top tiers of football however, with Northern Counties East League side Scarborough Athletic FC having a fanzine titled Abandon Chip !, a pun based on both the perilous situation of predecessor club Scarborough FC and that club's sponsors, McCain.

Much like its predecessor Cheers, Frasier used an ensemble cast with storylines involving the central group of characters.

He did not need to prove the common parentage of Sanskrit with Persian, Greek, Latin and German, for previous scholars had long established that ; but he aimed to trace the common origin of those languages ' grammatical forms, of their inflections from composition – a task which no predecessor had attempted.

The original predecessor of all firearms, the Chinese fire lance and European hand cannon were loaded with gunpowder and the shot ( initially lead shot, later replaced by cast iron ) through the muzzle, while a fuse was placed at the rear.

According to literary critic Terry Eagleton, Le Fanu, together with his predecessor Maturin and his successor Stoker, form a sub-genre of Irish Gothic, whose stories, featuring castles set in a barren landscape, with a cast of remote aristocrats dominating an atavistic peasantry, represent in allegorical form the political plight of colonial Ireland subjected to the Protestant Ascendancy

At opposition to or conjunction with the Sun, aberration is 20. 5 ″ while light-time correction varies from 4 ″ for Mercury to 0. 37 ″ for Neptune ( the Sun's light-time correction is less than 0. 03 ″).

For the case of an object that is small compared with the radial distance to its axis of rotation, such as a tin can swinging from a long string or a planet orbiting in a circle around the Sun, the angular momentum can be expressed as its linear momentum,, crossed by its position from the origin, r. Thus, the angular momentum L of a particle with respect to some point of origin is

For approximately two to three weeks on either side of November 30, Antares is not visible in the night sky, because it is near conjunction with the Sun ; this period of invisibility is longer in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southern Hemisphere, since the star's declination is significantly south of the celestial equator.

Altair is a type-A main sequence star with approximately 1. 8 times the mass of the Sun and 11 times its luminosity.

In 2006 and 2007, J. D. Monnier and his coworkers produced an image of Altair's surface from 2006 infrared observations made with the MIRC instrument on the CHARA array interferometer ; this was the first time the surface of any main-sequence star, apart from the Sun, had been imaged.

For the Sun and stars with low temperatures, the prominence of the H and K lines can be an indication of strong magnetic activity in the chromosphere.

Gauss's method involved determining a conic section in space, given one focus ( the Sun ) and the conic's intersection with three given lines ( lines of sight from the Earth, which is itself moving on an ellipse, to the planet ) and given the time it takes the planet to traverse the arcs determined by these lines ( from which the lengths of the arcs can be calculated by Kepler's Second Law ).

In Indian tradition Fire is also linked to Surya or the Sun and Mangala or Mars, and with the south-east direction.

It has been closely associated with the Sun god Utu-Shamash from very early times.
