Probability distribution from moments?
Constructing a continuous distribution to match $m$ moments
Where to locate "sockets" I am new to this, so sorry if its obvious. I am running a Debian server and installing the likes of UWSGI, NGinx etc on there. The configurations keep talking about pointing to "sockets".  In the build options I seem to be able to specify where the sockets for each program go. By default it looks like most of them go in /tmp (not all of them).  Is this a good place for them to go? I'm trying to keep things as organized as possible but just bunging them in /tmp doesn't seem like the best option. Is there any way to increase the drop rate of items? Some items in Terraria drop only very rarely from certain enemies. It's a pain having to farm so many enemies to try to get these rare items. Is there any way to make them drop more often? Is it feasible to transform each variable differently while doing multiple regression I have a dataset with 10 variables ...is it feasible to transform each variable differently while doing multiple regression...  for example new_V1 = log(v1)  New_V2= V2^2  New_V3= 1/V3  Likewise differently for different variables and then applying multiple regression? Options to move the school rucksack during the trip I've read  about how some publishers (e.g., Springer) allows authors to submit to arXiv before journal submission, but they make authors wait for a year after acceptance to submit to arXiv.   My question is: Is it okay to submit to arXiv during the time when the paper is under consideration by the journal, for example after it has been "revised and resubmitted" but before final decision? Can you determine a formula for this problem? Limit of a sequence defined by recursive relation : $ a_n = \sqrt{a_{n-1}a_{n-2}}$ What article should be used in the following sentence?     He was English by [a/the/] blood.   I feel there should be a zero article here, but I was taught that the zero article is impossible in English. I have a figure that is wider than the \textwidth of my document. (I don't want to change the \textwidth.) As a result, the leftmost part of the figure is flush with the left margin, while the rightmost part spills into the right margin too much. I'd like to center the figure, so that it will exceed the \textwidth equally on both sides. Is there any way to run file explorer as administrator under Windows 10 After install Windows 10, it seems that I lost the ability to run explorer.exe as administrator with a user in administrator group.   The reason I want to do that is, in our team's development environment, we are using a C# exe to do some environment configuration which will start command prompt under administrator mode and subst a drive. As a result those substed drives are not visible within the file explorer since it is run not as administrator. That will be kind of inconvenience and sometimes make mistakes.   I was able to run explorer.exe from task manager with the option "create with privileges" checked and then I can see all the drives in explorer. But now this is not working anymore.   I knew there are other options to workaround this workflow, but just want to make sure that if it is now totally impossible under Windows 10?  Any comment is appreciated. I got a UK visa for one month (restricted validity). It expires on November 4. Pakistani citizens are eligible to apply for a Turkish e visa if they have a valid UK visa. I want to visit Istanbul for a couple of days - from October 31 to November 2. Would I be eligible to still apply for an e visa?   My visa is for single entry. It's valid from October 4 to November 4. What's wrong with XKCD's Frequentists vs. Bayesians comic? makes fun of a frequentist statistician who derives an obviously wrong result.  However it seems to me that his reasoning is actually correct in the sense that it follows  the standard frequentist methodology.   So my question is "does he correctly apply the frequentist methodology?"    If no: what would be a correct frequentist inference in this scenario? How to integrate "prior knowledge" about the sun stability in the frequentist methodology? If yes: wtf? ;-) Difference between "did + verb" and just "verb+ed" This is something I always get confuse with (native language German). As far as I know "did + verb" is something done and finished in the past. But isn't it the same with "verb + ed"? Why was mixing declarations and code forbidden up until C99? I need to find all group homomorphisms of $S_n\to\mathbb{C}^*$ (for $n\ge2$), and also all group homomorphisms of $A_n\to\mathbb{C}^*$ (for $n\ge2$).  Someone on this site, two years ago, seems to have already asked the same question (). I understand what the questioner says there, but I don't understand it when he says:     Therefore there is exactly one $g:\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{C}^*$, so all elements of $a\in\mathbb{C}^*$ give us $\operatorname{ord}(a)\mid g[\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}]$, so $a$ can only be $-1$ or $1$. Now we know that $f:S_n\to\{-1,1\}$ &hellip;   What is he saying there? And how to go on from there? (I do not understand the answer given either &hellip;)  I hope that someone here can help me further. (And if I'm not allowed to ask this question because is has already been asked two years ago, please tell me what to do instead).  Thank you in advance!

How can this be achieved? I'm trying to install Linux alongside my 64-bit Windows 8 and went into my partition manager to find this structure.    In order to create partitions for my Linux install I need to free up some space. I see that the last partition is an empty recovery partition, as you can see highlighted, it's 100% free.  I was wondering is it okay to just remove this partition seeing as it doesn't appear I'll be losing anything?  Not sure if this helps but this is on a Fujitsu AH532 running Windows 8 64-bit with UEFI. A matching or independent edge set in a graph is a set of edges without common vertices.    A perfect matching (also called 1-factor) is a matching which matches all vertices of the graph.    a bipartite graph (or bigraph) is a graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets and (that is, and are each independent sets) such that every edge connects a vertex in to one in.    Now imagine a bipartite graph like G which has a perfect matching. Prove that there exists a vertex in G like V such that every edge connected to G is in a perfect matching.  Note : I tried to prove it but i have nothing to start with ! Thanks in advance.  Edit : The graph is a simple undirected graph and i don't know anything about "strongly" connected graphs.
