If we examine the three types of change from the point of view of their internal structure we find an additional profound difference between the third and the first two, one that accounts for the notable difference between the responses they evoke.

If `` Jack the Courtier '' is really to be taken as Swift, the following remark is obviously Steele's comment on Swift's change of parties and its effect on their friendship: `` I assure you, dear Jack, when I first found out such an Allay in you, as makes you of so malleable a Constitution, that you may be worked into any Form an Artificer pleases, I foresaw I should not enjoy your Favour much longer ''.

If the decision goes wrong, it may be -- as Mr. Stevenson fears -- `` the first step on the slippery path downhill '' to a U.N. without operational responsibilities and without effective meaning.

If there was a fire or a flood he would save Mama first and Violet next.

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

If your pool is located on or near sloping ground, it may have natural drainage which is certainly more desirable than to be faced with the annual expense and labor of first pumping out the water and then scooping out all the debris.

For example: If your bodily injury claims start payment after the first $250, a 25% premium saving is often made.

If you drive greater distances than that, you'll just be skimming the surface and will never discover the enchantment, fascination and beauty which lured you in the first place to explore the hinterlands.

If we thus spent our very first day in the midst of a large number of your people honoring a new hero and a great national achievement, our last day, to us at least, was equally impressive and very moving, even though the crowds were absent and there was almost complete silence.

If the first item in the operand is omitted, the symbolic name IOCSIXF will be assigned.

If we consider a process in which the outcome of one stage is known before passage to the next, then the principle of optimality shows that the policy in subsequent stages should be optimal with respect to the outcome of the first.

If a child does lose his first teeth prematurely because of decay -- and if no preventive steps are taken -- the other teeth may shift out of position, become overcrowded and malformed.

If one wishes to discuss a literary figure who uses folklore in his work, the first thing he must realize is that the literary figure is probably part of this ignorant American public.

If the change, at first sight, seems minor, we may recall that it took the Italian painters about two hundred years to make an analogous change, and the Italian painters, by universal consent, were the most brilliant group of geniuses any art has seen.

If, as a home movie maker, you shoot the inevitable footage of your child taking its first steps, you have merely recorded an historical event.

If Barnett doesn't call a special session in 1961, it will be the first year in the last decade that the Legislature has not met in regular or special session.

If in the first person, the document's component parts are:

If the original word was capitalised, then the first letter of its abbreviation should retain the capital, for example Lev.

If the replica had all the same experiences, traits, and physical appearances of the first person, we would all attribute the same identity to the second, according to Hick.

If we neglect higher than first order terms in the fluctuations, the mass balance equation becomes

The singles " I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You ", " Games People Play ", " Damned If I Do ", " Time " ( Woolfson's first lead vocal ), " Eye in the Sky " and " Don't Answer Me " had a notable impact on the Billboard Hot 100.

If more than one player selects a tile in that row, then the player whose tile is in the leftmost column ( closest to 1 ) goes first.

If the first allele is dominant to the second, then the fraction of the population that will show the dominant phenotype is p < sup > 2 </ sup > + 2pq, and the fraction with the recessive phenotype is q < sup > 2 </ sup >.

If the valid element indices begin at 0, the constant B is simply the address of the first element of the array.

If the object point be infinitely distant, all rays received by the first member of the system are parallel, and their intersections, after traversing the system, vary according to their perpendicular height of incidence, i. e. their distance from the axis.

If, as I suspect, the problem is largely of the second sort, then development of a theory better able to handle tone will result automatically in better theory for all phonologic subsystems.

If a single test fails, then the theory is falsified.

If the second theory is correct, this raises the further question of why the Persians, having hesitated for several days, then attacked.

If the wave function is regarded as ontologically real, and collapse is entirely rejected, a many worlds theory results.

If wave function collapse is regarded as ontologically real as well, an objective collapse theory is obtained.

If one axiomatizes relations instead of functions, one obtains the theory of allegories.

If the program is given to someone who speaks only English to execute the instructions of the program by hand, then in theory, the English speaker would also be able to carry on a conversation in written Chinese.

If we consider the thesis and its converse as definition, then the hypothesis is an hypothesis about the application of the mathematical theory developed from the definition.

If, after that, they breach the order, proceedings can be started and in theory the person involved can be sent to prison.

The well-known historian of physics, C. P. Snow, says about him, " If Fermi had been born a few years earlier, one could well imagine him discovering Rutherford's atomic nucleus, and then developing Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom.

If the ideological approach is concerned with broad movements and the effects of the world around the filmmaker, then the auteur theory is diametrically opposed to it, celebrating the individual, usually in the person of the filmmaker, and how his personal decisions, thoughts, and style manifest themselves in the material.

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 this sounds indulgent, it allows simultaneity, absolute space and time and a deterministic universe ( along with decoherence theory ) whilst the status-quo permits time travel / causality paradoxes, subjectivity in the measurement process and multiple universes.

If the field of scalars of the vector space has characteristic p, and if p divides the order of the group, then this is called modular representation theory ; this special case has very different properties.

If the group is neither abelian nor compact, no general satisfactory theory is currently known.

If no value of the rotation parameter is successful and theory is not within observational error, a modification of physical law is considered.

In The Origin of Species, he wrote, " If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down.

If, after a few thousand generations, the bacteria evolved the bacterial flagellum, then Behe believes that this would refute his theory.

If the underlying manifold is supersymmetric, the resulting theory is a supersymmetric Yang – Mills theory.

In arithmetic and number theory, the least common multiple ( also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple ) of two integers a and b, usually denoted by LCM ( a, b ), is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b. If either a or b is 0, LCM ( a, b ) is defined to be zero.

If there were such a number then the theory would be inconsistent, contrary to the consistency hypothesis.

If the lift coefficient for a wing at a specified angle of attack is known ( or estimated using a method such as thin airfoil theory ), then the lift produced for specific flow conditions can be determined using the following equation:
