Now time is also the concern of the fictional narrative, which is, at its simplest, the story of an action with, usually, a beginning, a middle, and an end -- elements which demand time as the first condition for their existence.

Instead of her old confidence in the simplest, purest, most moving musical expression, Miss Schwarzkopf is letting herself be tempted by the classic sin of artistic pride -- that subtle vanity that sometimes misleads a great artist into thinking that he or she can somehow better the music by bringing to it something extra, some personal dramatic touch imposed from the outside.

In its simplest form, the assumption of unit-treatment additivity states that the observed response from experimental unit when receiving treatment can be written as the sum of the unit's response and the treatment-effect, that is

The simplest example is when the defensive team records two outs and makes an error on a play that would have been the third out.

The simplest type of carbohydrate is a monosaccharide, which among other properties contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, mostly in a ratio of 1: 2: 1 ( generalized formula C < sub > n </ sub > H < sub > 2n </ sub > O < sub > n </ sub >, where n is at least 3 ).

Imperative ADT definitions often depend on the concept of an abstract variable, which may be regarded as the simplest non-trivial ADT.

The simplest is Arrhenius theory, which states than an acid is a substance that produces hydronium ions when it is dissolved in water, and a base is one that produces hydroxide ions when dissolved in water.

The simplest type of ab initio electronic structure calculation is the Hartree – Fock ( HF ) scheme, an extension of molecular orbital theory, in which the correlated electron – electron repulsion is not specifically taken into account ; only its average effect is included in the calculation.

Among the simplest examples are formic acid H-COOH, which occurs in ants, and acetic acid CH < sub > 3 </ sub >- COOH, which gives vinegar its sour taste.

The simplest dicarboxylic example is oxalic acid ( COOH )< sub > 2 </ sub >, which is just two connected carboxyls.

Many philosophies and worldviews have a set of classical elements believed to reflect the simplest essential parts and principles of which anything consists or upon which the constitution and fundamental powers of anything are based.

In the simplest application, clutches are employed in devices which have two rotating shafts ( drive shaft or line shaft ).

Based on this argument, the privileged frame, wherein the laws of physics take on the simplest form, is a stationary frame in which no fictitious forces need to be invoked.

The simplest checksum algorithm is the so-called longitudinal parity check, which breaks the data into " words " with a fixed number n of bits, and then computes the exclusive or of all those words.
