" If we mistakenly confuse precision with accuracy, then we might be misled into thinking that an explanation expressed in precise mathematical or graphical terms is somehow more rigorous or useful than one that takes into account particulars of history, institutions or business strategy.

Generally speaking parametric methods make more assumptions than non-parametric methods .< ref name =" Corder and Foreman "> Corder and Foreman, < cite > Nonparametric Statistics for Non-Statisticians: A Step-by-Step Approach </ cite >, John Wiley & Sons ( 2009 ), ISBN 978-0-470-45461-9 </ ref > If those extra assumptions are correct, parametric methods can produce more accurate and precise estimates.

If his results can be generalised, they would suggest that none of the supposed paradoxes formulated in time travel stories can actually be formulated at a precise physical level: that is, that any situation in a time travel story turns out to permit many consistent solutions.

If a precise moment for the genuine " midnight sun " is required, the observer's longitude, the local civil time and the equation of time must be taken into account.

If a more precise solution is desired, another iteration is then performed, using the positions and motions of the planets as identified in the first iteration, but adding a first-order gravity interaction from each planet on the others.

If one uses the more precise definition of an Amor, those outer Earth grazers which never get closer to the Sun than the Earth does ( at any angle along its orbit ) are Amors, and those that do are Apollos.

If the birth time cannot be obtained, or is not precise, some astrologers try to find it by rectification.

If observers and their measuring apparatus are themselves described by a deterministic wave function, why can we not predict precise results for measurements, but only probabilities?

If the signal being measured is actually smaller than the rounding error and the data are over-averaged, a positive result for the measurement can be found in the data where none exists ( i. e. a more precise experimental apparatus would conclusively show no such signal ).

If she is fortunate enough to fall on something warm ( which she perceives by means of an organ sensible to a precise temperature ) then she has attained her prey, the warm-blooded animal, and thereafter needs only the help of her sense of touch to find the least hairy spot possible and embed herself up to her head in the cutaneous tissue of her prey.

If two drift chambers are used with the wires of one orthogonal to the wires of the other, both orthogonal to the beam direction, a more precise detection of the position is obtained.

If she is fortunate enough to fall on something warm ( which she perceives by means of an organ sensible to a precise temperature ) then she has attained her prey, the warm-blooded animal, and thereafter needs only the help of her sense of touch to find the least hairy spot possible and embed herself up to her head in the cutaneous tissue of her prey.

If so, a far more precise orbital calculation can then be made.

If the position of the earth in its orbit around the sun is reckoned with respect to the equinox, the point at which the orbit crosses the celestial equator, then its dates accurately indicate the seasons, that is, they are synchronized with the declination of the sun.

If the position of the earth ( see above ) is reckoned with respect to the fixed stars, then the dates indicate the zodiacal constellation near which the sun can be found.
