If the software works as intended and without issues during normal use, one can reasonably extrapolate the same level of stability in production.

If a newer software version cannot save files that can be read by the older version, it is not backward compatible with the older version, although it may provide an irreversible upgrade capability for the old files.

* If legacy software runs on only antiquated hardware, the cost of maintaining the system may eventually outweigh the cost of replacing both the software and hardware unless some form of emulation or backward compatibility allows the software to run on new hardware.

If other parts of the program need memory ( a part assigned to open and close the door, for example ), then someone may be trapped inside, since the software cannot open the door.

If the software is safety-critical and can have negative impact on human life ( e. g., nuclear power systems, medical equipment ), more formal requirements documentation is often required.

If the software is expected to live for only a month or two ( e. g., very small mobile phone applications developed specifically for a certain campaign ) very little requirements documentation may be needed.

If the software is a first release that is later built upon, requirements documentation is very helpful when managing the change of the software and verifying that nothing has been broken in the software when it is modified.

If the software was on ROM, nothing would happen, but if the software had been moved to RAM, the software would be disabled.

:; Special-purpose use: If the software is compiled to be used on one or a few very similar machines, with known characteristics, then the compiler can heavily tune the generated code to those specific machines ( if such options are available ).

If he thus achieves a lyrical, dreamlike, drugged intensity, he pays the price for his indulgence by producing work -- Allen Ginsberg's `` Howl '' is a striking example of this tendency -- that is disoriented, Dionysian but without depth and without Apollonian control.

If love reflects the nature of man, as Ortega Y Gasset believes, if the person in love betrays decisively what he is by his behavior in love, then the writers of the beat generation are creating a new literary genre.

If we remove ourselves for a moment from our time and our infatuation with mental disease, isn't there something absurd about a hero in a novel who is defeated by his infantile neurosis??

If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

If he is a traditionalist, he is an eclectic traditionalist.

If our sincerity is granted, and it is granted, the discrepancy can only be explained by the fact that we have come to believe hearsay and legend about ourselves in preference to an understanding gained by earnest self-examination.

If to be innocent is to be helpless, then I had been -- as are we all -- helpless at the start.

If man is actually the product of his environment and if science can discover the laws of human nature and the ways in which environment determines what people do, then someone -- a someone probably standing outside traditional systems of values -- can turn around and develop completely efficient means for controlling people.

If the problems of combining cooling with your heating are knotty, it may be cheaper to plan on a completely separate cooling system.

If police had checked on her more thoroughly than is indicated, she would be completely eliminated as a suspect.

If the content of faith is to be presented today in a form that can be `` understanded of the people '' -- and this, it must not be forgotten, is one of the goals of the perennial theological task -- there is no other choice but to abandon completely a mythological manner of representation.

If the speed of the fluttering is close to a harmonic of the control's movement, the resonance could break the control off completely.

If the toms are omitted completely, or the bass drum replaced by a pedal-operated beater on the bottom skin of a floor tom and the hanging toms omitted, in either case the result is a two-piece kit.

If someone sees something completely different than another, our language prevents us from acknowledging the other's point of view by limiting our perception to fixed states.

If the depletion region expands to completely close the channel, the resistance of the channel from source to drain becomes large, and the FET is effectively turned off like a switch.

If they had any significant level of non-organic parts then something as simple as an x-ray scan would show them not to be human ( unless their creators designed the non-organic parts to have almost exactly the same structure and density as the organic components they were replacing, which would be both infeasible and highly improbable but not completely out of the question ).

While Spock makes it clear that the events during the period of Surak are well documented (" The Savage Curtain "), he is completely uncertain in regard to the origin of the Romulans: " If the Romulans are an offshoot of my Vulcan blood -- and I think this likely -- then attack becomes even more imperative.

If a band of allowable energies is completely filled by electrons, it cannot carry any electrical current, because that would require the electron's energy to be increased.

* If a problem is not completely understood, it is probably best to provide no solution at all.

If the position was found to be r < sub > 0 </ sub > then in an interpretation satisfying CFD, the statistical population describing position and momentum would contain all pairs ( r < sub > 0 </ sub >, p ) for every possible momentum value p, whereas an interpretation that rejects counterfactual values completely would only have the pair ( r < sub > 0 </ sub >,⊥) where ⊥ denotes an undefined value.

If Gregory granted absolution, the diet of princes in Augsburg in which he might reasonably hope to act as arbitrator would either become useless, or, if it met at all, would change completely in character.
