If the dealer's upcard is an ace, the player is offered the option of taking " insurance " before the dealer checks the hole card.

If a player wins two sets, or gets a win and a tie, that player wins the game.

If each player wins a set, or both sets end tied, there is a 3-end tiebreaker to determine a winner.

If the chains are long enough then the player will certainly win.

If the other player also knows to offer sacrifices, the expert also has to manipulate the number of available sacrifices through earlier play.

If a player rolls two of the same number, called doubles, that player must play each die twice.

If one player has not borne off any checkers by the time that player's opponent has borne off all fifteen, then the player has lost a gammon, which counts for double a normal loss.

If the losing player has not borne off any checkers and still has checkers on the bar or in the opponent's home board, then the player has lost a backgammon, which counts for triple a normal loss.

" If both opponents roll the same opening number, the doubling cube is incremented on each occasion yet remains in the middle of the board, available to either player.

If the firm is a perfect competitor in all input markets, and thus the per-unit prices of all its inputs are unaffected by how much of the inputs the firm purchases, then it can be shown that at a particular level of output, the firm has economies of scale if and only if it has increasing returns to scale, has diseconomies of scale if and only if it has decreasing returns to scale, and has neither economies nor diseconomies of scale if it has constant returns to scale.

If we examine only funds that have survived to the present, we will overestimate past returns because many of the worst-performing funds have not survived, and the observed association between fund youth and fund performance suggests that this bias may be substantial.

If any of the abovementioned requirements are not satisfied, the court rejects to approve the plea agreement and returns the case to the prosecutor.

The algorithm for deciding this is conceptually simple: it constructs ( the description of ) a new program t taking an argument n which ( 1 ) first executes program a on input i ( both a and i being hard-coded into the definition of t ), and ( 2 ) then returns the square of n. If a ( i ) runs forever, then t will never get to step ( 2 ), regardless of n. Then clearly, t is a function for computing squares if and only if step ( 1 ) terminates.

* If the correct answer is YES, then it returns YES with probability at least 1 / 2 ( and DO NOT KNOW otherwise ).

* If the correct answer is NO, then it returns NO with probability at least 1 / 2 ( and DO NOT KNOW otherwise ).

If it returns YES, the answer must be YES.

If it returns NO, the answer must be NO.

If there is an event in the queue, the Event Manager passes it back to the application, where it is handled, otherwise it returns immediately.
