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, ANOVA provides a statistical test of whether or not the means of several groups are all equal, and therefore generalizes t-test to more than two groups.

This is the simplest form of a technique known as instruction pipelining, and is utilized in almost all modern general-purpose CPUs.

One of the simplest examples of a category is that of groupoid, defined as a category whose arrows or morphisms are all invertible.

This has led to a plethora of more or less standardized file structures for all imaginable purposes, from the simplest to the most complex.

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.

John Dalton's original atomic hypothesis assumed that all elements were monatomic and that the atoms in compounds would normally have the simplest atomic ratios with respect to one another.

The simplest method is to apply just one earning rule, such as the 0 / 100 rule, to all activities.

Even the simplest designs avoid the vicious circle of rocket launches from the surface, the difficulty that: the fuel needed to travel the last 10 % of the distance to orbit must be lifted all the way from the surface ; that requires extra fuel ; most of the extra fuel must be lifted most of the way before it is burned ; that requires more extra fuel ; and so on.

The simplest examples of quantification are existential and universal statements, which are marked in English by phrases like there is or words like all.

Thus, although the current standard model of particle physics " in principle " predicts all known non-gravitational phenomena, in practice only a few quantitative results have been derived from the full theory ( e. g., the masses of some of the simplest hadrons ), and these results ( especially the particle masses which are most relevant for low-energy physics ) are less accurate than existing experimental measurements.

: The simplest way to impose the principle of self-consistency in quantum mechanics ( in a classical space-time ) is by a sum-over-histories formulation in which one includes all those, and only those, histories that are self-consistent.
