For example, the IBM System / 370 used a CPU that was primarily 32 bit, but it used 128-bit precision inside its floating point units to facilitate greater accuracy and range in floating point numbers.

For example, the accuracy of laser rangefinding measurements is based on the scientific understanding of lasers, while satellite pictures and meter sticks rely on different phenomena.

For the quantitative analysis, ten articles were selected at random – circumcision, Charles Drew, Galileo, Philip Glass, heart disease, IQ, panda bear, sexual harassment, Shroud of Turin and Uzbekistan – and letter grades of A – D or F were awarded in four categories: coverage, accuracy, clarity, and recency.

For ultimate accuracy and performance, the handloader also has the option of using a wildcat cartridge ; wildcats are the result of shaping the cartridge and chamber themselves to a specific end, and the results push the envelope of velocity, energy, and accuracy.

In summary, " For a writer whose early novels set in Scotland were prized for their historical accuracy, Scott was remarkably loose with the facts when he wrote Ivanhoe ...

For ideal positional accuracy, it is desirable to operate on a navigational grid where the grid lines are closer to right angles ( orthogonal ) to each other.

Professor of classics at Auckland University, E. M. Blaiklock, wrote: " For accuracy of detail, and for evocation of atmosphere, Luke stands, in fact, with Thucydides.

For thousands of years, mathematicians have attempted to extend their understanding of, sometimes by computing its value to a high degree of accuracy.

For example, the student accuracy standards help ensure that student evaluations will provide sound, accurate, and credible information about student learning and performance.

With finite samples, approximation results measure how close a limiting distribution approaches the statistic's sample distribution: For example, with 10, 000 independent samples the normal distribution approximates ( to two digits of accuracy ) the distribution of the sample mean for many population distributions, by the Berry – Esseen theorem.

For example, one cannot express confidence in Michael's accuracy by asserting the endless sentence:

For this reason, atomic oscillators are used for applications requiring better long-term stability and accuracy.

For example, if an experiment contains a systematic error, then increasing the sample size generally increases precision but does not improve accuracy.

For example, in the IEEE 754-2008 standard it means the number of bits in the significand, so it is used as a measure for the relative accuracy with which an arbitrary number can be represented.

For micrometers this is their typical accuracy range. Micrometers typically have a specified temperature at which the measurement is correct ( often 20 ° C, which is generally considered " room temperature " in a room with HVAC ).

For example, in 1952 Hans Hartelius conducted and published an animal study on cats entitled Cerebral Changes Following Electrically Induced Convulsions in which a double-blind microscopic pathology examination showed that it was possible to distinguish the 8 shocked animals from the 8 non-shocked animals with remarkable accuracy based on statistically significant structural changes to the brain, including vessel wall changes, gliosis, and nerve cell changes.

For example, a gage with 3 % manufacturer-stated accuracy can be changed to 4 % so that a 1 % accuracy standard can be used at 4: 1.

For example, if word context ( basically a lexicon of words ) is not used to correct software finding non-existent words, a character error rate of 1 % ( 99 % accuracy ) may result in an error rate of 5 % ( 95 % accuracy ) or worse if the measurement is based on whether each whole word was recognized with no incorrect letters.

For the Masoretic Text, such statistical information more importantly also ensured accuracy in the transmission of the text with the production of subsequent copies that were done by hand.

For optimal accuracy, the color difference between the two species should be as clear as possible, and the narrower the pH range of the color change the better.

For instance, the Fizeau – Foucault apparatus could measure the speed of light to perhaps 5 % accuracy, which was totally inadequate for measuring the direct, first order 0. 01 % change in the speed of light.

For one thing, this is not a subject often discussed or analyzed.

For better or for worse, we all now live in welfare states, the organizing principle of which is collective responsibility for individual well-being.

For one thing, there is a natural belt of rock across the river bed ; ;

For the family is the simplest example of just such a unit, composed of people, which gives us both some immunity from, and a way of dealing with, other people.

Even so astute a commentator as Harold Clurman of The Nation has said that `` Waiting For Godot '' is `` the concentrate of the contemporary European mood of despair ''.

For one thing, the world that Beckett sees is already shattered.

Harold Clurman is right to say that `` Waiting For Godot '' is a reflection ( he calls it a distorted reflection ) `` of the impasse and disarray of Europe's present politics, ethic, and common way of life ''.

For the beatnik, like the hipster, is in opposition to a society that is based on the repression of the sex instinct.

For this reason, too, their language is more forthright and earthy.

For the present it is enough to note that in the grotesque figure of Jacoby, at the moment of his collapse, all these elements come together in prophetic parody.

For Plato, `` imitation '' is twice removed from reality, being a poor copy of physical appearance, which in itself is a poor copy of ideal essence.

For both Plato and Aristotle artistic mimesis, in contrast to the power of dialectic, is relatively incapable of expressing the character of fundamental reality.

For Hammer, nothing is forbidden.

For example, suppose a man wearing a $200 watch, driving a 1959 Rolls Royce, stops to ask a man on the sidewalk, `` What time is it ''??

For the occasion on which everyone already knows everyone else and the host wishes them to meet one or a few honored newcomers, then the `` open house '' system is advantageous because the honored guests are fixed connective points and the drifting guests make and break connections at the door.

For this change is not a change from one positive position to another, but a change from order and truth to disorder and negation.

For paradigmatic history `` breaks '' rather than unfolds precisely when the movement is from order to disorder, and not from one order to a new order.

For this love of the boy for his mother is a hopeless and forbidden love, doomed by its nature.

For innocence, of all the graces of the spirit, is I believe the one most to be prayed for.

For what we propose, however, a psychoanalyst is not necessary, even though one aim is to enable the reader to get beneath his own defenses -- his defenses of himself to himself.

For this purpose a degree of intellectual and emotional involvement is necessary ; ;
