If in any one calculation Ptolemy had had to invoke 83 epicycles all at once, while Copernicus never required more than one third this number, then ( in the sense obvious to Margenau ) Ptolemaic astronomy would be simpler than Copernican.

If you had screamed right there in the street where we stood, I could not have felt more fear.

If anything, the conservative Democrats were more opposed to Hearst than the Republicans.

If his circumspection in regard to Philip's sensibilities went so far that he even refused to grant a dispensation for the marriage of Amadee's daughter, Agnes, to the son of the dauphin of Vienne -- a truly peacemaking move according to thirteenth-century ideas, for Savoy and Dauphine were as usual fighting on opposite sides -- for fear that he might seem to be favoring the anti-French coalition, he would certainly never take the far more drastic step of ordering the return of Gascony to Edward, even though, as he admitted to the English ambassadors, he had been advised that the original cession was invalid.

If an atom bomb in 1945 could destroy an entire city surely the atomic arsenal we now have is more than adequate to fulfill any military objective required of it.

If only this could be done more often -- with such heartening results -- many of the earth's `` big problems '' would shrink to the insignificances they really are.

If we make it established custom that whenever butchery on the highways grows excessive, say beyond 25,000 per annum, then somebody is going to hang, it follows that the more eminent the victim, the more impressive the lesson.

If he wanted to know anything, he would end up asking about it point-blank, but in this guileless manner he would probably receive more truthful answers than if he tried to get them by indirection.

`` If I catch you one more time down here without stockings '' --

If they feel that we are taking a long-term view of their problems and are prepared to enter into reasonably long-term association with them in their development activities, they will be much more likely to undertake the difficult tasks required.

If the resulting difference for the particular State is less or more than these extremes, the State's allotment percentage must be raised or lowered to the appropriate extreme.

If the resulting difference for the particular State is less or more than these extremes, the State's Federal share must be raised or lowered to the appropriate extreme.

If your child is under 19 or is a student you may also claim an exemption for him if he qualifies as your dependent, even though he earns $600 or more.

If the plants are cared for and protected over the winter, the second year is more prolific than the first.

If our national interest lies in being able to fight and win a war rather than committing national suicide, then we must take a much more penetrating look at ballistic missiles.

If we stop thinking in terms of tremendous multimegaton nuclear weapons and consider employing much smaller nuclear weapons which may be more appropriate for most important military targets, it would seem that the B-52 or B-70 could carry a great many small nuclear weapons.

If we could use all the small airfields we have in this country, we could disperse our strategic aircraft by a factor of 10 or more.

If the superintendents do not receive more cooperation from Handlers, it has been suggested that licensed Judges also be qualified to judge this Class.

If your state has no provisions for the numbering of pleasure boats, you must apply for a number from the U.S. Coast Guard for any kind of boat with mechanical propulsion rated at more than 10 horsepower before it can be used on Federal waterways.

If notched for the battens, they would require more work, be weakened and limber holes would have to be bored so that bilge water could flow through.

If cell Af has not previously been assigned as the information cell of a form in the text-form list, it is now assigned as the information cell of Af.

If Af was assigned as the information cell for Af, the routine can detect that Af is identical to Af by comparing Af with the form stored at location Af.

If Af leads to an address Af that is equal to the address computed from Af, even though Af does not match Af, the chain of information cells is extended from Af by storing the address of the next available cell in the Y-region, Af, in Af.

If cell Af is an information cell, it and any information cells in the Y-region that have been linked to Af each contain an address in the W-region where a potentially matching form is stored.

If cell Af is not an information cell we conclude that the i-th dictionary form is not in the text list.

If all forms of a paradigm are grouped together within the dictionary, a considerable reduction in the amount of information required is possible.

If both George and a piece of information George does not have are prominent in the context, but the idea of telling George is new, then dominant stress will probably be on tell in why not tell George??

If there is adequate information on job opportunities for skilled jobs elsewhere, many more workers can be expected to respond.

If, after signing such a declaration, the information is found to be deliberately untrue with the intent to deceive, the applicant may face perjury charges.

If a user agent reads a document with no character encoding information, it can fall back to using some other information.

If the page's creator and reader are both assuming some platform-specific character encoding, and the server does not send any identifying information, then the reader will nonetheless see the page as the creator intended, but other readers on different platforms or with different native languages will not see the page as intended.

If the content or presentation of a course is inconsistent with preconceived information, the student will learn if he or she is open to varying concepts.

If integration via the bus is achieved, the data warehouse, through its two data marts, will not only be able to deliver the specific information that the individual data marts are designed to do, in this example either " Sales " or " Production " information, but can deliver integrated Sales-Production information, which, often, is of critical business value.

If these relations are stored physically as separate disk files, completing a database query that draws information from several relations ( a join operation ) can be slow.

If it is " observed " ( measured with a photon ) not at a particular slit but rather at the screen, then there is no " which path " information as part of the interaction, so the electron's " observed " position on the screen is determined strictly by its probability function.

If the signal strength of a transmitter is insufficient the signal's information will be corrupted by noise.

If there are T treatments and T – 1 orthogonal contrasts, all the information that can be captured from the experiment is obtainable from the set of contrasts.

If the child is thrown into a passive role as a student, absorbing information, the result is a waste of the child ’ s education.

If physical reality is totally finite, then the Copenhagen interpretation might be an approximation to an information processing system below the Planck scale.
