This is distinct from technical support and other lines which use ANI so that a computer can automatically display the customer's account on a " screen pop " for the next available customer service representative: the MCI number is intended specifically for ANAC use.

There are some private national toll-free numbers that use ANI and then have a computer read back the number that is calling, but these are not intended for use in identifying the customer's own phone number.

As a result of its free availability, knowledge of BASIC became relatively widespread ( for a computer language ) and BASIC was implemented by a number of manufacturers, becoming fairly popular on newer minicomputers like the DEC PDP series and the Data General Nova.

It was during this period that a number of simple computer games were written in BASIC, most notably Mike Mayfield's Star Trek.

Although there is no question but that the process of washing fabrics involves a number of phenomena which are related together in an extremely complicated way and that these phenomena and their interrelations are not well understood at the present, this section attempts to present briefly an up-to-date picture of the physical chemistry of washing either fabrics or hard surfaces.

We note that two such curves C and Af, cannot coincide at more than a finite number of points ; ;

For it is clear that the total number of ordinary intersections of C and Af must be even ( otherwise, starting in the interior of C, Af could not finally return to the interior ), and the center of rotation at T is the argument of the function, not a value.

The number of ordinary values of the function f{t} at T will be called its multiplicity at T.

The remaining ( incomplete ) components all have an even number of ordinary points at any argument, and are defined only on a proper sub-interval of Aj.
