I already wrote a paper draft using inline citations like the following:     However, [12] argues that ...   Here I use "argues" instead of "argue" because the citation "[12]" acts as a singular noun (i.e., the paper), regardless of how many authors that paper has.  Now, I must change my citation style to the following format:     However, Smith et al. [2018] argues that ...   Must I change "argues" to "argue", since the subject is plural (i.e., multiple authors)? Or can the phrase "Smith et al. [2018]" still refer to a singular paper, meaning "argues" is still correct? Is it better to be consistent and always use a singular verb (I have many such constructions with single and multiple authors), or should the verb plurality depend on the number of authors?
What is the British English way of referring to a source in-text.  Is it plural because there are two authors, like this:         X and Y (2011) describe ...   Or is it singular because you are referring to a singular source, like this:     X and Y (2011) describes...   So what I am asking is whether you refer to the source or to the authors?
Noun for "receive"? Receipt?  Receiving?  I'm trying to come up with a name for "the acceptance of a delivery."  I'd like to be able to say      Ten deliveries were made but there are only five [fill_in_the_blank_here] on record.   Any suggestions? Prove that all cyclic groups of the same order are isomorphic I want to prove that 2 cyclic groups of the same order are always isomorph. So, let $G,H$ be cyclic groups with $|G| = |H|$. Then: I suspect the isomorphism would be the one that maps a generator g to a generator h. Thus, consider this function:  $f: G \rightarrow H$ defined by $f(g^k) = h^k$. I already showed that this mapping is surjective and a homomorphism, but I get stuck at the injectivity part. Can someone give a hint (my attempts: I tried to deduce whether the kernel is $e_G$ and I also used the definition of injectivity but I got stuck in both approaches)? I've tried other solutions, but none of them are specific to my setup. I just started using the new Linux subsystem featured in the recent Windows 10 update. I'm using WAMP x64 v3.0.6, and have successfully cloned my website and got it up and running. At the root of the Linux subsystem, I installed Drush globally with Composer, using the directions given on the .  Typing drush status returns the following when I run it in my default directory:  Drupal version         :  7.50  Site URI               :  http://default  Database driver        :  mysql  Database hostname      :  localhost  Database port          :  Database username      :  root  Database name          :  aerosphere  PHP executable         :  /usr/bin/php  PHP configuration      :  /etc/php5/cli/php.ini  PHP OS                 :  Linux  Drush script           :  /home/bob/.composer/vendor/drush/drush/drush.php  Drush version          :  7.1.0  Drush temp directory   :  /tmp  Drush configuration    :  Drush alias files      :  Drupal root            :  /mnt/c/wamp64/www/drupal-7.50  Site path              :  sites/default   But, as mentioned in the title, drush cc all returns No Drupal site found, only 'drush' cache was cleared.[warning] I assume it has something to do with adding a path to the .bashrc, but I don't know what to add. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!  My question is different from "", they're on a Mac and using MAMP, and I'm using WAMP on Windows. I've tried the solutions offered on that post, but the issue has not been resolved.  I'm obviously having issues connecting to MySQL as I get this when I run mysql command:     The program 'mysql' can be found in the following packages: * mysql-client-core-5.5 * mariadb-client-core-5.5 * mysql-client-core-5.6 * percona-xtradb-cluster-client-5.5      Try: sudo apt-get install .   So I've added these lines to my .bashrc file:  PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" export PATH="/mnt/c/wamp64/mysql/mysql5.7.14/bin:$PATH"   The top line was added to get drush working. I've checked multiple times, and I have the path correctly set, but it's still not working. Show the title character limit when writing a title I just ran into this while writing .  [I originally wrote:     you need a minimum of X reputation to comment on questions that are not your own, and on answers that are not to your own questions   But had to shorten it to:     you need a minimum of X reputation to comment]   First, it didn't tell me that I'd gone over the character limit for the title until after I had already tabbed out of the title field.  Second, it didn't tell me how much I'd gone over or anything. I had to copy-paste the text I'd written into my text editor in order to get some real-time feedback on the exact character count, to help figure out how to best shorten it.

I'm not a git master, but I have been working with it for some time now, with several different projects.  In each project, I always git clone [repository] and from that point, can always git pull, so long as I don't have outstanding changes, of course.  Recently, I had to revert to a previous branch, and did so with git checkout 4f82a29.  When I was again ready to pull, I found that I had to set my branch back to master.  Now, I can not pull using a straight git pull but instead, have to specify git pull origin master, which is annoying, and indicates to me that I don't fully understand what is going on.  What has changed which does not allow me to do a straight git pull without specifying origin master, and how to I change it back?  UPDATE:  -bash-3.1$ cat config [core]     repositoryformatversion = 0     filemode = true     bare = false     logallrefupdates = true [branch "master"] [remote "origin"]     url = git@github.com:user/project.git     fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*   UPDATE 2: To be clear, I understand that my original method may have been incorrect, but I need to fix this repo so that I can simply use git pull again.  Currently, git pull results in:  -bash-3.1$ git pull You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in your configuration file does not tell me either.  Please name which branch you want to merge on the command line and try again (e.g. 'git pull  '). See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.  If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to configure the following variables in your configuration file:      branch.master.remote =      branch.master.merge =      remote..url =      remote..fetch =   See git-config(1) for details.   I can tell git pull which branch to merge, and it works correctly, but git pull does not work as it did originally before my git checkout. Very large log files, what should I do? Understanding DC-DC boost converters I’m currently working on a solar powered boat with a modest sized team of people. For our competition we are only allowed to have 3 12v batteries on board but we are allowed to have up to 52v at any point in our setup. We are hoping to kick up the speed of our outboard motor for the sprint portion of the completion and are looking into using a boost converter for this.   After doing a little research I’m a bit confused about how they fundamentally work. From what I can tell they take in a voltage and current and put out a higher voltage with a lower current with some level of efficiency. But it seems to be independent from the load( in this case the motor) which doesn’t make much sense to me because I thought the current would be determined by whatever my load is. How do loads actually interact with boost converters?( The simpler the better.)  For reference we are using the Saietta 119r motor system and I’m considering using the MPS MPQ3425 boost converter. Let $f$ be a holomorphic function in $H={\{z\in\mathbb{C}}:\Re(z)&gt;0\}$ such that it is continuous in $cl(H)$, $|f(z)|\leq1$ $\forall z\in \delta H$ and $\lim_{|z|\to\infty}f(z)=0 $. Prove that $|f(z)|\leq1$ $\forall z\in H$. I thought about taking the bounded set $H\cap D(0,R), R&gt;0$. This way we could use the maximum modulus principle to prove it but I do not really know how to relate it with the limit since I would need $|f(z)|\leq1$ $\forall z\in H\cap D(0,R)$, and I do not have it on $D(0,R)$. I am looking for an example such that in a pre-Hilbert space $H$ we have for a subspace $U$ that  (i) $\bar{U} \oplus U^\perp \neq H$  (ii) $ \bar{U} \neq U^{\perp \perp}$  Since finite and closed subspaces will probably not do it, I am not good at inventing nice examples. Does anybody here have a few at hand? Evaluating string "3*(4+2)" yield int 18 I'm trying to install  on my Ubuntu box (11.04).

Every time I try to use command substitution, for example when I type  ls $(ls Deskto&lt;Tab&gt;   ..result is..  ls $(ls Desktobash unexpected eof while looking for matching ")".   I tried removing my .bashrc file and cp /etc/skel/bashrc ~/ to get a new one. That works until I add something into my new bashrc. Even when I do echo '#" &gt;&gt; ./.bashrc it breaks again. Removing my bash_aliases did not help either.  Also sudo apt-get install --reinstall bash-completion did not do the trick.  However there are some threads about similar problem, nothing works.

Thanks,  osu Prove that the minimum number of cycles is $m-n+1$ The question I have is:   Prove that the minimum number of cycles is $m-n+1$ in a connected graph.
