Dr. H. V. Hilprecht, Professor of Assyrian at the University of Pennsylvania, dreamed that a Babylonian priest, associated with the king Kurigalzu, ( 1300 B.C. ) escorted him to the treasure chamber of the temple of Bel, gave him six novel points of information about a certain broken relic, and corrected an error in its identification.

The only mistakes she makes within the series are a typing error during the events of Hickory Dickory Dock and the mis-mailing of an electricity bill, although she was worried about strange events surrounding her sister at the time.

The reliability of the system was limited to about 1 error in 100, 000 calculations by these units, primarily attributed to lack of control of the sheets ' material characteristics.

9 / 11 pilot hijacker Ziad Jarrah aboard Flight 93 also made a similar error when he mistakenly transmitted announcements to Cleveland ATC about the hijacking.

For one thing, if verbal reports are treated as observations, akin to observations in other branches of science, then the possibility arises that they may contain errors — but it is difficult to make sense of the idea that subjects could be wrong about their own experiences, and even more difficult to see how such an error could be detected.

Carelessness about this can lead to error.

The sonar system uses phase and amplitude bottom detection, with a precision of better than 0. 2 % of water depth ; this is an error of about at this depth.

He had checked about 40 % of the unavoidability portion and found a significant error in the discharging procedure.

Galileo, however, felt that the descriptive content of the technical disciplines warranted philosophical interest, particularly because mathematical analysis of astronomical observations — notably the radical analysis offered by astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus concerning the relative motions of the Sun, Earth, Moon, and planets — indicated that philosophers ' statements about the nature of the universe could be shown to be in error.

It operates at a maximum physical layer bit rate of 54 Mbit / s exclusive of forward error correction codes, or about 22 Mbit / s average throughput.

What's interesting about this example is that the code will work even if the read () causes an error, for instance, if the file does not exist.

: 29 / 1 ( error: 1 day after about 2 months )

: 30 / 1 ( error: 1 day after about 2 months )

: 59 / 2 ( error: 1 day after about 33 months )

: 443 / 15 ( error: 1 day after about 30 years )

: 502 / 17 ( error: 1 day after about 70 years )

: 1447 / 49 ( error: 1 day after about 3 millennia )

giving an error of only about half an hour in 687 years ( 2. 5 seconds a year ), although this is subject to secular variation in the length of the tropical year and the lunation.

Paragraph four of its summary states: " Being wholly and verbally God-given, Scripture is without error or fault in all its teaching, no less in what it states about God's acts in creation, about the events of world history, and about its own literary origins under God, than in its witness to God's saving grace in individual lives.

The error in the position of the Moon itself is only maybe 0. 5 "/ cy < sup > 2 </ sup >, or ( because the apparent mean angular velocity of the Moon is about 0. 5 "/ s ), 1 s / cy < sup > 2 </ sup > in the time of conjunction with the Sun.

The number required to factor integers using Shor's algorithm is still polynomial, and thought to be between L and L < sup > 2 </ sup >, where L is the number of bits in the number to be factored ; error correction algorithms would inflate this figure by an additional factor of L. For a 1000-bit number, this implies a need for about 10 < sup > 4 </ sup > qubits without error correction.

With error correction, the figure would rise to about 10 < sup > 7 </ sup > qubits.

The long-term error of the formula is approximately: 1 cy < sup > 2 </ sup > seconds in TT, and 11 cy < sup > 2 </ sup > seconds in UT ( cy is centuries since 2000 ; see section Explanation of the formulae for details.

Microsoft Windows Media Runtime in Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server contained a coding error that permitted " remote code execution if a user opened a specially crafted media file ".

In 1999 – 2000 the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ( OECD ) " blacklist " was circulated with Barbados listed in error.

The 2000 Census was corrected due to an error in the total population count of Milan.

In either application, a date value of 2958465 will be correctly formatted as " 31 December 9999 " but adding 1 to that to step over to the expected date of " 1 January 10000 " will cause a formatting error ; in Excel 2000, for example, it will be displayed in the cell as a series of # characters.

For the United States 2000 Census figures, almost 20 % of the total population did not classify or report an ancestry, and the census is also subject to undercounting, an incomplete ( 67 %) response rate, and sampling error in general.

In the 2000 World Figure Skating Championships in Nice, France, they were third after the short program due to an error in a spin.

Fomenko also claims that carbon dating over the range of AD 1 to 2000 is inaccurate because it has too many sources of error that are either guessed at or completely ignored, and that calibration is done with a statistically meaningless number of samples.

This ignorance covers many components, some wanted ( like the effects of technical and organizational innovation ), others unwanted ( measurement error, omitted variables, aggregation bias, model misspecification ) ( Hulten 2000, 11 ).

The stakeholders were issued land patents in 1998 and again in 2000 to correct an error in the original patents.

He tied Cal Ripken, Jr .' s AL record, since surpassed, for most consecutive games at shortstop without an error ( 95, between September 26, 1999 and July 21, 2000 ).

The metallicity and the related distance estimate has been subject to discussions in the scientific literature, with varying results, however, recently, by use of the tip of the red giant branch, a distance within 10 % error was achieved in 2000

During the 1999 and 2000 seasons, Ordóñez set a Major League record for shortstops by playing 101 consecutive games without committing a fielding error.

In 2000 the Dutch military authorities, tired of constantly having to explain all this and considering " pruttle " was hardly a martial name anyway, conformed themselves to common error and made " Cheetah " the official designation, when the system was upgraded.

An American version, titled Greatest Hits, was released on April 18, 2000, but is generally considered highly inferior as it contained fewer songs and included a track error.

Common belief was that this coin was intentionally struck by a mint employee, however the mint confirmed in July 2000 that the coin was a legitimate error, created by the accidental replacement of a cracked Sacagawea obverse die with a Washington obverse die.

In May 2000, an error coin bearing the George Washington obverse design of a U. S. state quarter and the eagle reverse of a Sacagawea dollar was discovered in a roll of dollar coins purchased from a bank in Mountain Home, Arkansas.

As of August 2011, eight of the eleven error coins, including the one initially discovered in Arkansas, are owned by a New Mexico collector who purchased them between 2000 and 2003, paying as high as $ 75, 000 for a single specimen.
