Sometimes when I look at my suggested edits I see some which have been rejected by  even when accepted by other users. How can this be? I thought  was just a background, automated process. Does it really have veto over suggested edits?
Why does the Community user sometimes approve or reject edits? How does a machine know if my edit is valid? What does it mean if my edit was rejected by Community?     See also:
Prove that $\sum_{k=1}^{n}k\binom{n}{k}=n\cdot2^{n-1}$ I want to prove the following: $$\sum_{k=1}^{n}k\binom{n}{k}=n\cdot2^{n-1}$$ what I did is(use binominal): $$\binom{n}{k}X^k\cdot 1^{n-k} = (X+1)^n$$ $$k\binom{n}{k}X^k\cdot 1^{n-k} = k(X+1)^k-1$$ now I replace $k$ by $n$ and insert $X=1$ , I will get now $n\cdot2^{n-1}$ what you are suggesting? there is another way to do that? thanks!

It makes me wonder how does the output value work as a password While moving custom profiles using eclipse from dev org to partner org found following errors This problem is from Discrete Mathematics and its Applications  My question is on 9b. I know that the sign represents an element is a member of. (from book)  I know that the O with a slash across it is the empty set which &quot;is a special set that has no elements&quot;. From , I got that the empty set is a subset of all sets, meaning that every member of the empty set(nothing) is also a member of any other set. Based on all of this, for 9b, would {0} contain the empty set because it fundamentally has the elements that consist of the empty set(nothing) or does it physically have to have the empty set? Best word wrap algorithm? Word wrap is one of the must-have features in a modern text editor.  How word wrap be handled? What is the best algorithm for word-wrap?  If text is several million lines, how can I make word-wrap very fast?  Why do I need the solution? Because my projects must draw text with various zoom level and simultaneously beautiful appearance.  The running environment is Windows Mobile devices. The maximum 600&nbsp;MHz speed with very small memory size.  How should I handle line information? Let's assume original data has three lines.  THIS IS LINE 1. THIS IS LINE 2. THIS IS LINE 3.   Afterwards, the break text will be shown like this:  THIS IS LINE 1. THIS IS LINE 2. THIS IS LINE 3.   Should I allocate three lines more?

What is the ancestral form of language used in the fable that David was studying during the flight? David studies linguistics during the flight to LV-223. We get to listen and read a fable.

Approximate quotation:     hjewis jasma hwaelna nahast akwunsez dad'kta, tam ghermha vagam ugenthe Find $P(n+1)$ for a polynomial P Fix a nonnegative integer $n$. Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $n$ (over the real numbers) such that for all $k\in\left\{0,1,\ldots,n\right\}$, we have $P(k)=\dfrac{k}{k+1}$. Find $P(n+1)$.   My attempt:  I consider a new polynomial $Q(x)=(x+1)P(x)-x$. This $Q$ is a polynomial of degree $\leq n+1$ satisfying: $Q(k)=0\quad\forall k\in\{0,1,2,\ldots,n\}$. Therefore $Q(x)=\lambda x(x-1)\cdots(x-n)$ for a certain real $\lambda$. Hence, $Q(-1)=\lambda \cdot (-1)^{n+1}(n+1)!$, but also $Q(-1)=(-1+1)P(-1)+1=1$. Comparing these, we get $\lambda \cdot (-1)^{n+1} (n+1)! = 1$, thus $\lambda=\dfrac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}$. Since $Q(n+1)=\lambda(n+1)!$ then $Q(n+1)=(-1)^{n+1} $, and from $P(x) = \dfrac{Q(x)+x}{x+1}$ we deduce: $$P(n+1)=\dfrac{(-1)^{n+1}+n+1}{n+2}.$$ I doubted that the answer were $P(n+1)=\frac{n+1}{n+2}$ but the term $(-1)^{n+1}$ wasn’t expected. Is there any mistake here? Does someone have an alternative proof? How to remove items from the right click (context) menu in Windows? The  is minimal and clean on a fresh installation of Windows. Install a bunch of applications and soon the context menu is loaded with all kinds of opening options from various applications.  How do I remove items from the right click (context) menu?  I find that there are different types of right click menu items:   Global items that appear in all context menus. Items that appear only on folders. Items that appear only on files. Items that appear only on special folders (Ex: Right clicking a folder of MP3s shows up a context menu with items like Play with Windows Media Player.) Items that appear only on certain file types (Ex: Right clicking a MP3 file shows up a context menu with items from Windows Media Player/Foobar2000/VLC/your-favorite-media-player begging to open this file.)   I want to be able to delete all these kinds items from the right click (context) menu.

I've been Googling around with no luck.  I'm looking for a way to do getc() or gets() or whatever that does not echo to the terminal.  I saw kbhit() but this doesn't appear to be part of ANSI.  Ideally, I'd like code that looks like  char s[100]; no_echo_gets(s); /* Won't echo to screen while being typed */ printf("%s\n", s);   Does anybody know a good ANSI compliant way to do this? Landau's derivation of a free particle's kinetic energy- expansion of a function? I was reading a bit of Landau and Lifshitz's Mechanics the other day and ran into the following part, where the authors are about to derive the kinetic energy of a free particle. They use the fact that the Lagrangian of this particle must be the same (or at most, differ by the total time derivative of a function of co-ordinates and time) in different inertial frames.     We have $L'=L(v'^2)=L(v^2+2\mathbf{v}\cdot\boldsymbol{\epsilon}+\boldsymbol{\epsilon}^2)$. Expanding this expression in powers of $\boldsymbol{\epsilon}$ and neglecting terms above the first order, we obtain    $$L(v'^2)=L(v^2)+\frac{\partial L(v^2)}{\partial (v^2)}2\mathbf{v}\cdot\boldsymbol{\epsilon}.$$   I think I'm ok with all the physics in this section. What I don't get is just the part I quoted above (so maybe this post is better suited for the math site, but since this is book is so physics-y I thought I'd post it here). My math is pretty rusty, so I'm not really sure- how do the authors expand the function to arrive at the above expression? It reminds me a bit of a Taylor expansion, but not very much. What's the process used to arrive at it? Why non-measurable sets exist? What Is the reason behind the fact that $\Bbb R$ is not a complete measure space? Is it only due to the cardinality of  $\Bbb R$? Or other structures on  $\Bbb R$ also play a role? Can one make every subset of  $\Bbb R$ trivially measurable by assigning them to a number of a complete ordered field of the cardinality $\aleph_2$ ?
