Why my overload inherit function is not hiding a base function?
What is object slicing?
Good books on complex numbers I searched on this site but I found posts asking for books on complex analysis which I guess is not what I want.   I want a book on problems concerning with roots of unity, argand plane, exponential form, inequalities etc. Some examples : , , .  I don't think these types of problems are covered in a analysis book but I don't know. I think I want a book on algebra of complex numbers.   Are these topics covered in analysis book ? If not, please suggests some books on this topic. I guess my question is bit vague, sorry for that. :).      As suggested in the comments I would like to have books similar to . How to tell Google that I have changed my website URLs? I have done major updates to my website, and renamed all my URLs.  How can I tell Google that I have renamed these URLs and let Google refresh its index?  My website URL: http://www.pndmasr.com/  My sitemap: http://www.pndmasr.com/sitemap.xml  I have uploaded my sitemap via Google Webmaster Tools many times.  However, every time I search Google for "pndmasr", I still get results with old pages. I have waited more than 3 days but the problem remains. Any suggestions?  Is there a problem with my sitemap? In C#, can I convert a string value to a string literal, the way I would see it in code? I would like to replace tabs, newlines, etc. with their escape sequences. If this code: Console.WriteLine(someString);  produces: Hello World!  I want this code: Console.WriteLine(ToLiteral(someString));  to produce: \tHello\r\n\tWorld!\r\n Is there any true inertial reference frame in the universe? Is there any true  in the universe?  Newton's first law states that an object at rest remains at rest, and an object performing uniform motion performs uniform motion, until and unless acted upon by an external force, if viewed from an inertial frame. It is the definition of an inertial frame of reference. And Newton's second law states that the net external force acting on a particle equals its mass times its acceleration. Thus we need to have an inertial frame in order for Newton's 1st and 2nd laws to be applicable.  Scientists claim that Earth is an inertial frame, either the  frame or the  frame.  Why is that? Earth's different parts have different accelerations when it performs rotational motion about its axis. Now you may say that Earth's axis is inertial, but the Earth is also revolving around the Sun. Thus Earth's frame should be non-inertial.  Even supposing that earth's frame is inertial, then it means that rest of the universe is non-inertial, because only a frame that moves with constant velocity with respect to an inertial frame is also an inertial frame and according to various scientific experiments there is no other matter in this universe which satisfies that criterion. Now you may say that earth is an approximate inertial frame, but still, my question is: is there any perfect inertial frame in the universe where Newton's laws are exactly applicable? Dominoes and induction, or how does induction work? I've never really understood why math induction is supposed to work.  You have these 3 steps:   Prove true for base case (n=0 or 1 or whatever) Assume true for n=k.  Call this the induction hypothesis. Prove true for n=k+1, somewhere using the induction hypothesis in your proof.   In my experience the proof is usually algebraic, and you just manipulate the problem until you get the induction hypothesis to appear.  If you can do that and it works out, then you say the proof holds.  Here's one I just worked out,  Show $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{(\ln x)^n}{x} = 0$  So you go:   Use L'Hospital's rule. $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{\ln x}{x} = 0$. Since that's $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{1}{x} = 0$. Assume true for $n=k$. $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{(\ln x)^k}{x} = 0$. Prove true for $n=k+1$.  You get $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{(\ln x)^{k+1}}{x} = 0.$   Use L'Hospital again: $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{(k+1)(\ln x)^{k}}{x} = 0$.  Then you see the induction hypothesis appear, and you can say this is equal to $0$.  What I'm not comfortable with is this idea that you can just assume something to be true ($n=k$), then based on that assumption, form a proof for $n=k+1$ case.  I don't see how you can use something you've assumed to be true to prove something else to be true. I have an Object[] array, and I am trying to find the ones that are primitives. I've tried to use Class.isPrimitive(), but it seems I'm doing something wrong:  int i = 3; Object o = i;  System.out.println(o.getClass().getName() + ", " +                    o.getClass().isPrimitive());   prints java.lang.Integer, false.  Is there a right way or some alternative? Resizing point on zoom out Uninstalling Homebrew messed up git I uninstalled Homebrew using .

Self Teaching QFT I am currently in the process of teaching myself QFT.  It is not an easy task.  I have armed myself with many of the standard textbooks.  However, I am slow learner.   I get stuck on a thousand different terms which I don't understand, and a style of 'mathematics speak'  which loses me 95% of the time.   There are so many gaps in my knowledge that if I were a ship I would be at the bottom of the ocean.  What I really need is a book called 'QFT for Morons'. That's a bit harsh but 'QFT for dummies' doesn't quite express it clearly enough and besides there isn't such a book as far as I can find.  Any suggestions of resources or books that might help?   What I am really looking for is the one that explains QFT like you were talking to a five year old.  Perhaps I am asking the impossible.  I will add a bit more of a specific question here.    I have learnt that there are groups and non-abelian Lie groups like SU(2) etc., and then there a lagrangians, as well as a few other things like operators and states.   So a really dumb question is how are the lagrangians derived?  Are they determined by the group?  I am also confused because I understand some of the groups like SU(3) are used for different things in QFT.   I feel compelled to appologize for my ignorance but I am determined to make so more progress with this.   The problem when one is teaching oneself is you don't know which is the most fruitful path to follow.

Running programs in the background from terminal How do I run a program in the background of a shell, with the ability to close the shell while leaving the program running? Lets say my UI is having problems or for some reason, I need to boot up a program from the terminal window, say, nm-applet:  nm-applet   When it's started, it occupies the foreground of the terminal window.  Is there any simple way to run the program in the background without needing to leave the terminal open or have it occupy the whole terminal?  On that note, I did find a way to run programs from the terminal and have it allow for other inputs, by appending an ampersand (&amp;) to the command as such:  nm-applet &amp;   But this isn't much use as any processes started in the terminal are killed once the terminal is closed. I can't seem to figure out how to get past this step. Any suggestions? Generator expressions vs. list comprehensions Why can't I import a SVG file from Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape? I've tried multiple times to  import a SVG file from illustrator CS5.5 to Blender 2.71 and 2.73. However, I do not see a mesh, curve, or anything pop up in my "Outliner" window. So I know its not so small I can't see it. I even made sure under user preferences that the "import and export of SVG 1.1 format" is "checked." I've tried even just importing text from illustrator and I'm still getting no where. What can I do to resolve this problem? If this is common error with this version of Blender, then what can I do to transform an image into a 3D object in Blender? How do I make a hole in an object created by me? Please help, youtube tutorials didn't help at all. Hope the image help.
