While Lobachevsky created a non-Euclidean geometry by negating the parallel postulate, Bolyai worked out a geometry where both the Euclidean and the hyperbolic geometry are possible depending on a parameter k. Bolyai ends his work by mentioning that it is not possible to decide through mathematical reasoning alone if the geometry of the physical universe is Euclidean or non-Euclidean ; this is a task for the physical sciences.

But this permission is limited by two indispensable conditions, first, that from the sense once conventionally established we never, in the same process of reasoning, depart ; secondly, that the laws by which the process is conducted be founded exclusively upon the above fixed sense or meaning of the symbols employed .” While his remarks pertain here to the development of a scientific language of formal reasoning or Logic, they apply equally well to natural languages, for all languages are essentially systems of symbolic communication.

While the priest denied, the Virgin rectified the error.

While the Dines anemometer had an error of only 1 % at it did not respond very well to low winds due to the poor response of the flat plate vane required to turn the head into the wind.

While a group of bits malfunction may be resolved by error detection and correction mechanisms ( see above ), storage device malfunction requires different solutions.

While a group of bits malfunction may be resolved by error detection and correction mechanisms ( see above ), storage device malfunction requires different solutions.

* Error-correcting codes ( channel coding ): While data compression removes as much redundancy as possible, an error correcting code adds just the right kind of redundancy ( i. e., error correction ) needed to transmit the data efficiently and faithfully across a noisy channel.

While there are many sources of error with performance ratings, error can be reduced through rater training and through the use of behaviorally-anchored rating scales.

While most mutagens produce effects that ultimately result in error in replication, some mutagens may affect directly the replication process.

While it promotes readability for humans, facilitates error detection, and avoids interoperability problems such as byte-order ( Endianness ), it can slow processing speed and can be cumbersome.

While many websites send additional information in a 404 error message — such as a link to the homepage of a website or a search box — there are also much more advanced extensions available as widgets that endeavor to find the correct web page the user wanted.

; Programming style: While typos in the program code are often caught by the compiler, a bug usually appears when the programmer makes a logic error.

While this error is often not obvious to casual observers, under the ISU Judging System, cheated jumps are heavily penalized, in many cases as much as or more than a fall on a fully rotated jump.

While simple longitudinal parity can only detect errors, it can be combined with additional error control coding, such as a transverse redundancy check, to correct errors.

While preventive maintenance is generally considered to be worthwhile, there are risks such as equipment failure or human error involved when performing preventive maintenance, just as in any maintenance operation.

While a deacon in Rome, he is known to have been a partisan of the Antipope Laurentius, for in a libellus written to Pope Symmachus in 506, John confessed his error in opposing him, anathematized Peter of Altinum and Laurentius, and begged pardon of Symmachus.
