Hood replied that he would take careful soundings as he advanced to test the depth of the water, and that " If you will allow the honour of leading you into battle, I will keep the lead going.

If the experiment were done in English, since Searle knows English, he would be able to take questions and give answers without any algorithms for English questions, and he would be affectively aware of what was being said and the purposes it might serve: Searle passes the Turing test of answering the questions in both languages, but he's only conscious of what he's doing when he speaks English.

If a compression test does give a low figure, and it has been determined it is not due to intake valve closure / camshaft characteristics, then one can differentiate between the cause being valve / seat seal issues and ring seal by squirting engine oil into the spark plug orifice, in a quantity sufficient to disperse across the piston crown and the circumference of the top ring land, and thereby effect the mentioned seal.

If a second compression test is performed shortly thereafter, and the new reading is much higher, it would be the ring seal that is problematic, whereas if the compression test pressure observed remains low, it is a valve sealing ( or more rarely head gasket, or breakthrough piston or rarer still cylinder wall damage ) issue.

If a problem is suspected then a more comprehensive test using a leak-down tester can locate the leak.

If V. cholerae serogroup O1 is not isolated, the laboratory should test for V. cholerae O139.

To avoid debates about the possibility of in-vitro fertilization, artificial insemination, or cloning, the original Darwin Awards book applied the following " deserted island " test to potential winners: If the person were unable to reproduce when stranded on a deserted island with a fertile member of the opposite sex, he or she would be considered sterile.

If the test was true, the value one is written to the least significant bit of the destination register to indicate the condition.

If confirmed, this would imply special relativity is an approximation to a more general theory, but since the relevant comparison would ( by definition ) be outside the observable universe, it is difficult to imagine ( much less construct ) experiments to test this hypothesis.

If it is uncertain whether " spells " are indeed due to hypoglycemia, some physicians will recommend use of a home glucose meter to test at the time of the spells to confirm that glucoses are low.

If the situation requires it, it is also possible to define a method to execute before ( or after ) each ( or all ) of the test methods with the ( or ) and ( or ) annotations.

If one chooses a critical value of the test statistic D < sub > α </ sub > such that P ( D < sub > n </ sub > > D < sub > α </ sub >)

If police coercion is shown or evident, then the court proceeds to determine the voluntariness of the waiver under the totality of circumstances test focusing on the personal characteristics of the accused and the particulars of the coercive nature of the police conduct.

If the diagnosis is suspected, serology can be performed in a blood test to identify certain antibodies:

If a child is not screened during the routine newborn screening test ( typically performed 2-7 days after birth, using samples drawn by neonatal heel prick ), the disease may present clinically with seizures, albinism ( excessively fair hair and skin ), and a " musty odor " to the baby's sweat and urine ( due to phenylacetate, one of the ketones produced ).

If the child drops the gun and it breaks someone's foot, the HWR test fails, as a broken foot was not the type of harm anticipated.

If at any point a test fails, the last small change is undone and repeated in a different way.

" If a serum prolactin concentration is greater than three times the baseline when taken within one hour of syncope, then in the absence of test " modifiers ":

If the operator could not get through by dialing the number, she could call the inward operator in the destination city, and ask her to try the number, or to test a line to see if it was busy or out of order.

If the person is infected with scabies, the characteristic zigzag or S pattern of the burrow will appear across the skin ; however, interpreting this test may be difficult, as the burrows are scarce and may be obscured by scratch marks.

If this new Bible does not increase in significance by repeated readings throughout the years, it will not survive the ages as has the King James Version.

If empirical data reach significance under the appropriate statistical formula, the research hypothesis is supported.

If we can prevent something bad without sacrificing anything of comparable significance, we ought to do it ; absolute poverty is bad ; there is some poverty we can prevent without sacrificing anything of comparable moral significance ; therefore we ought to prevent some absolute poverty.

If it does, the lower-level facts will have derived significance.

If, instead, the hypothesis was specified after some of the data were examined, and specifically tuned to match the direction in which the early data appeared to point, the calculation would overestimate statistical significance.

If minds are wholly dependent on brains, and brains on biochemistry, and biochemistry ( in the long run ) on the meaningless flux of the atoms, I cannot understand how the thought of those minds should have any more significance than the sound of the wind in the trees.

If sample size is under a researcher's control, a good choice depends on the statistical power of the test, the effect size that the test must reveal and the desired significance level.

If a corresponding hypothesis test is performed, the confidence level corresponds with the level of significance, i. e. a 95 % confidence interval reflects a significance level of 0. 05, and the confidence interval contains the parameter values that, when tested, should not be rejected with the same sample.

If the algorithm is implemented using floating-point arithmetic, then α should get the opposite sign as the k-th coordinate of, where is to be the pivot coordinate after which all entries are 0 in matrix As final upper triangular form, to avoid loss of significance.

If the term is to be used as a symbol of liberty and economic coordination as it has been in the modern era, Kennedy argues that it should exist as a construct completely separate from Adam Smith since there is little evidence that Smith imputed any significance onto the term, much less the meanings given it at present.

If such a group is later discovered ( for instance, due to convergent evolution ) to be polyphyletic, rather than monophyletic, then such a group loses its original significance.

If both fetuses are the same sex this is of no significance, but if they are different, male hormones pass from the male twin to the female twin.

If is evaluated as using fused multiply – add, then the result may be negative even when due to the first multiplication discarding low significance bits.

If the calculated p-value is below the threshold chosen for statistical significance ( usually the 0. 10, the 0. 05, or 0. 01 level ), then the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis.

If significance testing is applied to hypotheses that are known to be false in advance, a non-significant result will simply reflect an insufficient sample size.

" He quotes the physicist Arthur Eddington in support of his position as follows ; " If we must embed our schedule of indicator readings in some kind of background, at least let us accept the only hint we have received as to the significance of the background-namely that it has a nature capable of manifesting itself as a mental activity.

If the word were not in our minds hopelessly attached to a humble significance, we, too, might be charmed by its combination of spirant, liquids, and vowels.

As Mies stated on his achievement, “ If you view nature through the glass walls of the Farnsworth House, it gains a more profound significance than if viewed from the outside.

If a table of the chi-squared probability distribution is available, the critical value of chi-squared,, can be found by entering the table at g − 1 degrees of freedom and looking under the desired significance or alpha level.

* If the CE marking is affixed on a product, it can bear additional markings only if they are of different significance, do not overlap with the CE marking and are not confusing and do not impair the legibility and visibility of the CE marking.
