For this reason, the more uncertain skywave service was denominated `` secondary '' in our rules, as compared to the steadier, more reliable groundwave `` primary service '', and, for both skywave service and skywave interference, signal strength is expressed in terms of percentage of time a particular signal-intensity level is exceeded -- 50 percent of the time for skywave service, 10 percent of the time for skywave interference.

For most speakers ( even native speakers ), this form of the language is generally difficult to understand, as it contains many highly specialised terms for diplomatic, internal, official, and military matters.

For example, if one defines categories in terms of sets, that is, as sets of objects and morphisms ( usually called a small category ), or even locally small categories, whose hom-objects are sets, then there is no category of all sets, and so it is difficult for a category-theoretic formulation to apply to all sets.

For example, he almost always uses the terms " Australes " and " Occidentales " for the South and West Saxons respectively, but in a passage in the first book he uses " Meridiani " and " Occidui " instead, as perhaps his informant had done.

For each physical quantity, a number of different units ( some only of historical interest ) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit.

For many decades, consciousness as a research topic was avoided by the majority of mainstream scientists, because of a general feeling that a phenomenon defined in subjective terms could not properly be studied using objective experimental methods.

For alternative ( equivalent ) formulations of the definition in terms of a bijective function or a surjective function, see the section Formal definition and properties below.

For instance, the odd-numbered terms of the sequence get arbitrarily close to 0, while the even-numbered ones get arbitrarily close to 1.

For example, the terms " group of people ", " group of dogs ", and " group of ideas " are all correct uses.

For example, the oblateness of a sphere of freely flowing material is often explained in terms of centrifugal force.

For this reason, Locking adds that a definition of a term must not comprise of terms which are synonymous with it.

For terms such as these it is not possible and indeed not necessary to state a definition ; rather, one simply comes to understand the use of the term.

For specific related academic terms, see Divinity ( academic discipline ), or Divine ( Anglican ).

For signals of indefinite size, such as streaming audio and video, the compression ratio is defined in terms of uncompressed and compressed data rates instead of data sizes:

For Derrida, Genesis and Structure are both inescapable modes of description, there are some things that " must be described in terms of structure, and others which must be described in terms of genesis ," but these two modes of description are difficult to reconcile and this is the tension of the structural problematic.

For instance, if the expected sale price of John Doe's house in the example above was not $ 150, 000 in three years, but $ 130, 000 in three years or $ 150, 000 in five years, then on the above assumptions buying the house would actually cause John to lose money in present-value terms ( about $ 3, 000 in the first case, and about $ 8, 000 in the second ).

For simple dynamical systems, knowing the trajectory is often sufficient, but most dynamical systems are too complicated to be understood in terms of individual trajectories.

For example,, by dividing both terms by can be written as

For example, some references, and Wolfram's Mathematica software, define the complete elliptic integral of the first kind in terms of the parameter m, instead of the elliptic modulus k.

For example, in the United Methodist Church, bishops are elected for life, can serve up to two terms in a specific conference ( three if special permission is given ), are responsible for ordaining and appointing clergy to pastor churches, perform many administrative duties, preside at the annual sessions of the regional Conferences and at the quadrennial meeting of the worldwide General Conference, have authority for teaching and leading the church on matters of social and doctrinal import, and serve to represent the denomination in ecumenical gatherings.

For example, civil law can be clearer than case law when the legislature has had the foresight and diligence to address the precise set of facts applicable to a particular situation.

For that reason, civil law statutes tend to be somewhat more detailed than statutes written by common law legislatures – but, conversely, that tends to make the statute more difficult to read ( the United States tax code is an example ).

For example, a calendar provides a way to determine which days are religious or civil holidays, which days mark the beginning and end of business accounting periods, and which days have legal significance, such as the day taxes are due or a contract expires.

For example in Sweden, the Swedish word totalförsvar refers to the commitment of a wide range of resources of the nation to its defense-including to civil protection.

For example, there were no more than five civil wars underway simultaneously in the first half of the 20th century, while over 20 concurrent civil wars were occurring at the end of the Cold War, before a significant decrease as conflicts strongly associated with the superpower rivalry came to an end.

For example, for a long period it was assumed that Imperial China had no system of civil law because the law codes did not have explicit provisions for civil lawsuits.

For about the next 10 years, the country saw a steady process of secular Westernization through Atatürk's Reforms, which included the unification of education ; the discontinuation of religious and other titles ; the closure of Islamic courts and the replacement of Islamic canon law with a secular civil code modeled after Switzerland's and a penal code modeled after the Italian Penal Code ; recognition of the equality between the sexes and the granting of full political rights to women on 5 December 1934 ; the language reform initiated by the newly founded Turkish Language Association ; replacement of the Ottoman Turkish alphabet with the new Turkish alphabet derived from the Latin alphabet ; the dress law ( the wearing of a fez, is outlawed ); the law on family names ; and many others.

For example, some Ethiopian nationalist circles still claim the former Ethiopian province of Eritrea ( internationally recognized as the independent State of Eritrea in 1993 after a 30 year civil war ).

For instance, scholarly studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that jurors conflate reasonable doubt with the civil standard of preponderance of the evidence.

For minor civil complaints and offenses, justices of the peace take the case.

For example, in Israel marriage is governed by officially recognized religious bodies who each provide marriage services for their respected adherents, yet no form of civil marriage ( free of religion, for atheists, for example ) exists nor marriage by non recognized minority religions.
