There is clear evidence that Lucy from childhood had an unusual mind.

One is not sure who emerges as the main personality of this book -- Mijbil, with his rollicking ways, or Maxwell himself, poet, portrait painter, writer, journalist, traveller and zoologist, sensitive but never sentimental recorder of an unusual way of life, in a language at once lyrical and forceful, vivid and unabashed.

Doc Doolittle's scheduled appearance at captain's mast was a very unusual thing, because the discipline dispensed there is ordinarily for the young and immature, and a chief is naturally expected to stay off the report.

An adventure is defined as an exciting or unusual experience ; it may also be a bold, usually risky undertaking, with an uncertain outcome.

In American jurisprudence, under the rules for hearsay, admission of an unsupported affidavit as evidence is unusual ( especially if the affiant is not available for cross-examination ) with regard to material facts which may be dispositive of the matter at bar.

The game is unusual in that no dice are used in resolving conflicts or player actions ; instead a simple diceless system of comparative ability, and narrative description of the action by the players and gamemaster, is used to determine how situations are resolved.

Cysteine is unusual since it has a sulfur atom at the second position in its side-chain, which has a larger atomic mass than the groups attached to the first carbon, which is attached to the α-carbon in the other standard amino acids, thus the ( R ) instead of ( S ).

It is somewhat unusual for directors to be credited co-editors, although the Coen Brothers and Robert Rodriguez have both directed and edited nearly all of their films.

However, there is also evidence that silent reading did occur in antiquity and that it was not generally regarded as unusual.

Perhaps the most unusual thing about the privately operated buses is the fact that they are all highly decorated and personalized, with decaling and home made interior designs that range from comic book scenes, to erotic themes, and even to " Hello Kitty " themes.

The river, named Hamza after the discoverer, an Indian-born scientist Valiya Mannathal Hamza who is working with the National Observatory at Rio, makes it the first and geologically unusual instance of a twin-river system flowing at different levels of the earth's crust in Brazil.

Due to a name which is unusual in Denmark, it is speculated that he was christened on the Danish " Absalon " name day, October 30.

There exist pairs of long and short vowels with overlapping vowel quality giving Australian English phonemic length distinction, which is unusual amongst the various dialects of English, though not unknown elsewhere, such as in regional south-eastern dialects of the UK and eastern seaboard dialects in the US .< ref >

By all means the most important distinction is that between those total-cost apportionments which superimpose a distribution of admittedly unallocable cost residues on estimates of incremental or marginal costs, and those other apportionments which recognize no difference between true cost allocation and mere total-cost distribution.

By preserving the value, only one division operation is needed and the higher-order statistics can thus be calculated for little incremental cost.

The misconception that Lisp is a purely interpreted language is most likely because Lisp environments provide an interactive prompt and that code is compiled one-by-one, in an incremental way.

With Common Lisp incremental compilation is widely used.

Modern methods include the use of lossless data compression for incremental parsing, prediction suffix tree and string searching by factor oracle algorithm ( basically a factor oracle is a finite state automaton constructed in linear time and space in an incremental fashion ).

; Level 5-Optimizing: It is a characteristic of processes at this level that the focus is on continually improving process performance through both incremental and innovative technological changes / improvements.

Then an incremental displacement along the path ds is described by:

Note that support of ' levels ' by a PBX is not necessarily incremental.

::-Euphoria is interpreted to encourage prototyping and incremental development.

The development history is strictly incremental: while there have been many serious improvements, the basic design and architecture have not changed since the early versions.

There is also incremental reading support for the text editors Emacs and Yi.

With incremental reading, a load of material is subdivided into articles and its extracts.

Because video compression only stores incremental changes between frames ( except for keyframes ), it is not possible to fast forward or rewind to any arbitrary spot in the video stream.

The central idea of these theories is that language development occurs through the incremental acquisition of meaningful chunks of elementary constituents, which can be words, phonemes, or syllables.

Protein complexes in the inner membrane ( NADH dehydrogenase, cytochrome c reductase, and cytochrome c oxidase ) perform the transfer and the incremental release of energy is used to pump protons ( H < sup >+</ sup >) into the intermembrane space.

In the future, MRAM could potentially be used in microcontrollers as it has infinite endurance and its incremental semiconductor wafer process cost is relatively low.

A common modification allows reference counting to be made incremental: instead of destroying an object as soon as its reference count becomes zero, it is added to a list of unreferenced objects, and periodically ( or as needed ) one or more items from this list are destroyed.

The main advantage of reference counting over tracing garbage collection is that objects are reclaimed as soon as they can no longer be referenced, and in an incremental fashion, without long pauses for collection cycles and with clearly defined lifetime of every object.

In tracing garbage collectors, this information is stored implicitly in the references that refer to that object, saving space, although tracing garbage collectors, particularly incremental ones, can require additional space for other purposes.

At any given x, the incremental volume ( δV ) is given by the product of the cross-sectional area of the disk at x and its thickness ( δx ):

The total volume is the summation of all incremental volumes:
