I want to install pencil 0.4.4b, on an ubuntu machine that is not connected to the internet.  Is there a way I can copy all the source files or preferably a .deb file and any dependencies to a usb and then install from there?
I have a friend who has got a computer that is not connected to the Internet. Is there any way to install software offline easily?
Can I use set instead of List to resolve the duplicate id issue If you take a look into this issue     I have provide an answer of using set&lt;Sobject&gt; instead using list&lt;Sobject&gt;  i.e.  if( !contacts.values().isEmpty() ){   set&lt;Contact&gt; setContacts = new set&lt;Contact&gt;();   for( Contact objCon : contacts.values() ){     if(!setContacts.contains(objCon)){         setContacts.add( objCon );     }   }  update new list&lt;Contact&gt;(setContacts); }   even if(!setContacts.contains(objCon)) is not needed  if( !contacts.values().isEmpty() ){   set&lt;Contact&gt; setContacts = new set&lt;Contact&gt;();   for( Contact objCon : contacts.values() ){         setContacts.add( objCon );   }  update new list&lt;Contact&gt;(setContacts); }   So is there any condition/use case where this answer might fail? What is recursion and when should I use it? One of the topics that seems to come up regularly on mailing lists and online discussions is the merits (or lack thereof) of doing a Computer Science Degree. An argument that seems to come up time and again for the negative party is that they have been coding for some number of years and they have never used recursion.  So the question is:   What is recursion? When would I use recursion? Why don't people use recursion? I understand that the entrance pupil is the image of the aperture as seen from the front of the lens. However, is the size of the entrance pupil the same as the size of the effective aperture? In other words, if I measure the size of the entrance pupil by looking at it, will that be equivalent to the focal length of the lens divided by the f-number (with the focus set to infinity)? I know that sometimes this is hard to estimate because of the shape of the aperture blades, but I was wondering whether pupil and aperture can be quite different (perhaps at very low magnification). Overstayed in the Philippines for years: How to go back to the US without paying a big fine? I'm a U.S. Citizen and I have been overstaying in the Philippines for 5 years. I want to go back to U.S what's the penalty?   I don't have enough money to pay a big fine, is there a way to avoid that? Difference between shadowing and overriding in C#? If A is a finite set and B is an infinite set, then B\A is an infinite set Prove: If $A$ is a finite set and $B$ is an infinite set, then $B \setminus A$ is an infinite set.   I've tried proving the contrapositive, that if $B \setminus A$ is a finite set then $A$ is infinite or $B$ is finite, but I don't think this is the way to go. Given the following HTML:   &lt;div id="container"&gt;   &lt;!-- Other elements here --&gt;   &lt;div id="copyright"&gt;     Copyright Foo web designs   &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;    I would like #copyright to stick to the bottom of #container. Can I achieve this without using absolute positioning? Are there some good overviews of basic facts about images and inverse images of sets under functions? How do I find this limit: $\lim_{n\to\infty} \left[ n-{n\over e}\left(1+{1\over n}\right)^n \right]$? Migrating to full Ubuntu after dual installation on WinXP I previously ran 12.04 alongside WinXP to see how it performed on my mom's older laptop.  i also migrated her email to Thunderbird. If I now convert from dual WinXP/Ubuntu to only run Ubuntu will things like her Thunderbird emails be transferred as part of the Ubuntu full install? Or must I do something else? I am fairly tech aware, but not a full IT boffin! How did this character come to be in the Nethersphere? How is it that       The Master   Came to be in the Nethersphere?  The last time we saw him      He died and refused to regenerate.  The Doctor even cremated his body.   So, given what previously happened to him, how was he now able to      Regenerate as Missy and take over the Nethersphere? Exercise $7$, page 51 from Hungerford's book Algebra.     Show that $N=\{(1),(12)(34), (13)(24),(14)(23)\}$ is a normal subgroup   of $S_{4}$ contained in $A_{4}$ such that $S_{4}/N\cong S_{3}$ and   $A_{4}/N\cong \mathbb{Z}_{3}$.   I solved the question after many calculations. I would like to know if is possible to define an epimorphism $\varphi$ from $S_{4}$ to $S_{3}$ such that $N=\ker(\varphi)$.

Cloth collision with an object Can US citizens go to Cuba freely and vice versa after the recent diplomatic relation restoration? A recent full diplomatic relation restoration between the US and Cuba took place, does that mean that US citizens can go to Cuba freely and vice versa? Distribution of range of Uniform $(0,1)$ distribution Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be iid as $U \sim [0,1]$ with pdf $f(x) = 1(0 &lt;x&lt; 1)$. Determine the range distribution.   I have managed to determine the distribution of the minimum and the maximum, however I cannot/do not know how to determine the distribution of range.   Minimum:  $f_N = n(1-x)^{n-1}$ and maximum $f_M= nx^{n-1}$   I am aware that the calculation of range distribution is based on convolution: $f_R=\int f_{N,M}(x,x-r)dx$, However I cannot get the correct result, which according to my lecture slides is : $f_R= n(n-1)r^{n-2}(1-r)$  Could someone break this down for me ? My math background is not great Let $P(X)$ denote the power set of $X$ (the set of all subsets of $X$) with a partial order given by inclusion.  If $F: P(X) \to  P(X)$ is monotone (order preserving), then $F$ has a fixed point.  How are we going to prove that without using the term (complete lattice)?!
