I am a newbie to Ubuntu OS, so don't really have much idea of how things work. Well, m trying to install Cisco Packet Tracer 7.1.1, Now i don't really know how to do that. I have already downloaded Packettracer from the netacad.com.  Please if anyone can help me out here.  Thanks in Advance.  Also need help for installing VMware.
I have downloaded and extracted the packet tracer file, then I used this command as root  chmod +x install   then I ran (as root)  ./install    Then I used this command   ./set_ptenv.sh   but whenever I run this command   packettracer    it just doesn't start
Changing capitalization of filenames in Git Django Template Variables and Javascript When I render a page using the Django template renderer, I can pass in a dictionary variable containing various values to manipulate them in the page using {{ myVar }}.  Is there a way to access the same variable in Javascript (perhaps using the DOM, I don't know how Django makes the variables accessible)? I want to be able to lookup details using an AJAX lookup based on the values contained in the variables passed in. How to down-weight older data in time series regression In a regression fit of vectors varying with time $t$ $\qquad y \sim [x_t\ x_{t-1}\ x_{t-2}\ ...] \cdot [c_t\ c_{t-1}\ c_{t-2} \ ...] $ , how can one down-weight the older $x_t$ to model "older is less relevant" (than the regression gives) ? Say that rows in data matrix $X$ are observables (stocks, market segments ...) and columns are times. Correct me,   weights rows; how does one weight columns, times ?  Added: Down-weighting older data in time series looks complex, much more so than linear least squares with i.i.d. errors in rows (observations) -- just divide through by $\sigma_i$; or classification  with i.i.d. errors in columns (e.g. features) -- just centre each column. Can anyone say either   yes, I downweight time series; here are some examples on the web no: down-weighting time series is complex, not for novices.   (  discussed this question 10 years ago, mentioning Kalman filters and hierarchical Bayes, but with no examples.) Stirling's Approximation Proof I was searching for the reason why Stirling's Approximation holds true. I found the website  which apparently shows why this is the case. Does this part of the equation make sense in the proof? If so why?  $$\int_{1}^{n}\ln(x)dx\approx\sum_{k=1}^{n}\ln(k)$$ Apostrophe difference (Ones' and Two's Complement) Do I need to change my ESTA address when visiting the US?

Convert a string to an enum in C# What's the best way to convert a string to an enumeration value in C#? I have an HTML select tag containing the values of an enumeration. When the page is posted, I want to pick up the value (which will be in the form of a string) and convert it to the corresponding enumeration value. In an ideal world, I could do something like this: StatusEnum MyStatus = StatusEnum.Parse(&quot;Active&quot;);  but that isn't a valid code. What's the difference between struct and class in .NET?

Deriving the conditional distributions of a multivariate normal distribution We have a multivariate normal vector ${\boldsymbol Y} \sim \mathcal{N}(\boldsymbol\mu, \Sigma)$. Consider partitioning $\boldsymbol\mu$ and ${\boldsymbol Y}$ into  $$\boldsymbol\mu = \begin{bmatrix}  \boldsymbol\mu_1 \\  \boldsymbol\mu_2 \end{bmatrix} $$ $${\boldsymbol Y}=\begin{bmatrix}{\boldsymbol y}_1 \\  {\boldsymbol y}_2 \end{bmatrix}$$  with a similar partition of $\Sigma$ into $$  \begin{bmatrix} \Sigma_{11} &amp; \Sigma_{12}\\ \Sigma_{21} &amp; \Sigma_{22} \end{bmatrix} $$ Then, $({\boldsymbol y}_1|{\boldsymbol y}_2={\boldsymbol a})$, the conditional distribution of the first partition given the second, is  $\mathcal{N}(\overline{\boldsymbol\mu},\overline{\Sigma})$, with mean $$ \overline{\boldsymbol\mu}=\boldsymbol\mu_1+\Sigma_{12}{\Sigma_{22}}^{-1}({\boldsymbol a}-\boldsymbol\mu_2) $$ and covariance matrix $$ \overline{\Sigma}=\Sigma_{11}-\Sigma_{12}{\Sigma_{22}}^{-1}\Sigma_{21}$$  Actually these results are provided in Wikipedia too, but I have no idea how the $\overline{\boldsymbol\mu}$ and $\overline{\Sigma}$ is derived. These results are crucial, since they are important statistical formula for deriving Kalman filters. Would anyone provide me a derivation steps of deriving $\overline{\boldsymbol\mu}$ and $\overline{\Sigma}$ ? Thank you very much! The total number of subsets is $2^n$ for $n$ elements In my probability book, it says that to count the total number of subsets of n elements is a process of $n$ stages with binary choice of either adding this element to the subset or not to add it. Therefore, the total number is $$2^n$$  But, for instance, we have 3 elements, according to this formula, there are 2 to the power of 3 elements, namely 8, which are $${\emptyset},A,B,C, AB, AC, BC, ABC$$  However, I have a hard time of imagining the process or N stages binary choice that form this many subsets. Can anyone explain/help me to understand it? I mean, ABC, if we are making the choice of A, put it in or do not put it in, exactly which subset are we choosing to put in or not? Thank you.

If you have a conducting hollow sphere with a uniform charge on its surface, then will the electric field at every point inside the shell be 0. The reason the electric field is 0 at the center is clear from the symmetry of the sphere, but for a point at a certain distance from the center, shouldn't a net electric field exist?  I saw a similar question on the site but it was vaguely explained. Prove: $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ st for every $x \in \mathbb{R}$ there exists $n$ st $f^{(n)}(x) = 0$, f is a polynomial. If $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a smooth function such that for every $x \in \mathbb{R}$ there exists $n$ such that $f^{(n)}(x) = 0$, then f is a polynomial.   I'm kind of lost on this one. I know that I have to use Baire's category theorem somewhere here, but I'm not sure exactly how.
