'Alert whomever may read' - should it be 'whoever'? I read this morning :     ... words which leap from the second verse and alert whomever may read the epistle ... to the fact that ...   I am not clear with what exactly is going on with 'alert whomever may read'. Is 'whomever' the grammatical object of 'alert' or is it the grammatical subject of 'may read' ? Or is it both ?  So should it be 'whoever' ?
Whoever or whomever: 'happy for ___ has the pleasure of working with you next.' So sad to lose you, yet happy for whomever has the pleasure of working with you next.
Contemporary written usage of "whom" in objective case Possible Duplicate:          I was writing a LinkedIn recommendation one day, and ended up pondering for a while which of these forms to use:     … is a great developer whom I always   found easy to work with.      … is a great developer who I always   found easy to work with.   Both are basically correct in contemporary English, right? But is one or the other preferable, and if so, why?   (In this case I went with the latter, as it seemed more common (Google)  and I wanted to avoid sounding unnecessarily “archaic”, although I’m not sure whether that would have been the case. Also note that I try to write in a “friendly professional” style instead of overly formal one. :-) I am considering buying my first DSLR.  How do I know whether I need a 18-200 lens, 17-85, or 18-55?

I pulled out an old book called     On page 196-197, there are some interesting integrals to evaluate. I'm at 5.4.3.10.: I was able to do question 1, but was stumped at how to even begin with question 2:     Evaluate the integral   $$\int_0^{2 \pi} e^{\cos x} \cos (nx - \sin x) \,dx ,$$   where $n$ is an natural number.   The answer is simply $\frac{2 \pi}{n}$. Any hints? This occurs in the  released recently to the public. When someone posts a code block in their question or answer, the code block is cut off on the right hand side, and I can't scroll to the right to view the rest of it.

Can anyone explain how we choose one sock from each of finitely many pairs without the axiom of choice?  I mean : To choose one sock from each of infinitely many pairs of socks requires the Axiom of Choice, but for shoes the Axiom is not needed.  The idea is that the two socks in a pair are identical in appearance, and so we must make an arbitrary choice if we wish to choose one of them. For shoes, we can use an explicit algorithm -- e.g., "always choose the left shoe." Why does Russell's statement mention infinitely many pairs? Well, if we only have finitely many pairs of socks, then AC is not needed -- we can choose one member of each pair using the definition of "nonempty," and we can repeat an operation finitely many times using the rules of formal logic (not discussed here). Format number to always show 2 decimal places Let $M$ be the manifold of real positive definite $n \times n$ matrices, define a mapping $i:A \to \sqrt A$ (where $A\in M$ and $\sqrt A$ means the unique positive definite square root of $A$). Please show that $i$ is smooth. How to change the order of the subcategory and category in a post? I guess it is something simple which I'm not able to see. Any help would be much appreciated. Best, M. Let $y_n$ be a sequence such that  $\lim_{n\to \infty} y_n= y$ then prove that     $ \lim \dfrac{y_1+y_2+...+y_n}{n}= y$   My try:  As  $\lim_{n\to \infty} y_n= y$ then given $\epsilon&gt;0$ there exists $N$ such that $\forall n\ge N ;||y_n-y||&lt;\epsilon $.  Now $||\dfrac{y_1+y_2+...+y_n}{n}-y||\le n^{-1}\{||y_1-y||+||y_2-y||+...+||y_n-y||\}$  How to make this limit tend to zero? How to create dummy webcam?

I'm pretty sure they earn gems or runes or something like that There's one part where the main character has to play a piece of music perfectly to earn her gem/rune thing It's definitely a series; young-adult (I read them in middle school)   Thanks!
