Why I'm I getting the no matches found error when there is a match?

What is the reason that the value "47" is so popular in electrical engineering? We often see component values of 4.7K Ohm, 470uF, or 0.47uH.  For example, digikey has millions of 4.7uF ceramic capacitors, and not a single 4.8uF or 4.6uF and only 1 listed for 4.5uF (specialty product).  What's so special about the value 4.7 that sets so far apart from say 4.6 or 4.8 or even 4.4 since in the 3.. series we usually 3.3,33, etc.  How did these numbers come to be so entrenched?  Perhaps a historical reason? How to set HttpResponse timeout for Android in Java I have created the following function for checking the connection status:  private void checkConnectionStatus() {     HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();      try {       String url = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000/GaitLink/"                    + strSessionString + "/ConnectionStatus";       Log.d("phobos", "performing get " + url);       HttpGet method = new HttpGet(new URI(url));       HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(method);        if (response != null) {         String result = getResponse(response.getEntity());         ...   When I shut down the server for testing the execution waits a long time at line  HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(method);   Does anyone know how to set the timeout in order to avoid waiting too long?  Thanks! Einstein-Hilbert action as an effective field theory I have read the following statement:      "The Einstein-Hilbert action can be seen as an effective field theory: setting $g_{\mu\nu}= \eta_{\mu\nu}+h_{\mu\nu}$, one gets a free Lagrangian for the field $h_{\mu\nu}$ plus interactions."   Now, how is it possible to define all the interaction terms?  EDIT: I ask apologize if my statement was appeared unclear: I have created a  which is more precise; please don't continue to consider seriously this one. How do I remove duplicates from a C# array? I have been working with a string[] array in C# that gets returned from a function call. I could possibly cast to a Generic collection, but I was wondering if there was a better way to do it, possibly by using a temp array.  What is the best way to remove duplicates from a C# array? Every irreducible polynomial $f$ over a perfect field $F$ is separable.   Can you check my proof? Assume that $f$ is irreducible but inseparable. So we have $f=\sum_i h_ix^i$ and $f^p=\sum_i h_i^px^{ip}$. Now I use Frobenius mapping $\phi (f)=f^p=(\sum_i h_ix^i)^p=\sum_i h_i^px^{ip}$ so it is reducible. Contradiction. Should I also show for char(F)=0? Group with order $pq$ has subgroups of order $p$ and $q$ Let G be a group with $o(G)=pq$, $p&gt;q$ are primes.  Prove that $G$ has a subgroup of order $p$ and a subgroup of order $q$.  Remark: I cannot find the topic with this problem.  I have tried different methods but no one of them did not bring result. Please show how to do that. Do not use Sylow's Theorem. I am trying to testfor a player holding a diamond sword named Notch's Legendary Sword. How can I do that? Who ever gets the best answer will be able to get the first look at my NEW adventure map! Can I apply for a Schengen visa of the first port of entry or does it need to be the country of the longest duration? I'm planning to travel to the Netherlands, Spain and Bulgaria. My longest stay will probably be in Bulgaria. Now, Bulgaria doesn't issue a Schengen visa but allows people with a Schengen visa to visit. Which visa should I be applying for? Bulgarian Visa AND Schengen visa or just the Schengen visa for Netherlands or Spain? Setting Boundaries around city in google maps What is the difference between #include  and #include "filename"? I'd like to have a horizontal line extending from the end of the text on a line to the right margin. So far I've found \hrulefill and \leaders\hrule\hfill, but these draw a line that's flush with the baseline of my text — how can I get it to be vertically centered? Adding space around section title for in-register in KOMA-script context Google Spreadsheets Enter/Return Key Behavior In Microsoft Excel, the default behavior of pressing the Enter (return) key is this:     If you are in a cell, and tab over as   you input data, at the end of the   series when you click Enter, the focus   will go to the cell directly under the   cell that you began the series of   tabs.      For example, if you are in cell A1,   tab over to C1, and then click Enter,   the focus will go to cell A2.   Is there any way to get this behavior in Google Spreadsheets? This is a trivial problem, but it annoys me that I can't get to the bottom of it:  I'm running Windows 8, Powershell version 3.0. By right-clicking on the title bar I can go into the Properties and change the font, size, background colour etc without any problems.  After closing and restarting Powershell, all of the changes I've made stick except that if I've set the font to Lucida Console then on reopening I get the Raster font.  (Note that all of the above applies to when I run Powershell as Administrator.)  So:   If I set the font to Lucida, then it switches to Lucida for the remainder of the session. If I set the font to anything other than Lucida, then it stays as that after closing and reopening. If I alter the window sizes or text colours or anything else, the changes persist after reopening. The only thing that goes wrong is that if I set the font to Lucida, it switches to 'Raster fonts' when I reopen. But cmd and powershell ISE don't have this problem - only the powershell console.   Can anyone suggest what might be going wrong?  (One observation I've made is that upon re-opening Powershell after setting the font to Lucida, at first the width of the window is what it would be if the font were Lucida, but then after a second, it widens slightly to accommodate the raster font.) Why is it that Android still can't be installed as regular OS? Crookshanks is Hermione's familiar in PoA, GoF, and OOTP. I cannot recall mention of Crookshanks following OOTP, though. What happened to Crookshanks? Does canon refer to Crookshanks in either HBP or DH? As linguistics student, I have to put more than one thing on a character every now and then. For example, I need to type ā̆. I thought I could simply do that by typing \={\u{a}}, but then the macron is placed above an empty space in front of the character.  How can I solve this? Thanks  P.S. I'm using MiKTeX 2.9, running on Windows 8; in case it might be of use. I’m studying a PhD in Theoretical Physics (quantum field theory, to be specific), but I would like to learn more about black holes (and related areas. Does anyone have any suggestions for textbooks/available notes on these subjects for people without much background in them? Obviously I’m very comfortable with mathematics and physics in general so I’m not looking for “pop science” material. I remember seeing an upper bound for the binomial $\binom{n}{k}$ with an exponential function, something like $\binom{n}{k}\leq \left(ne/k\right)^k$. What exactly is it, and are there other similar good upper bounds for $\binom{n}{k}$?  Edit: As the link in Macavity's comment shows, the bound is indeed $\binom{n}{k}\leq \left(ne/k\right)^k$. How can we prove this? Rounding to nearest 100 First number needs to be rounded to nearest second number. There are many ways of doing this, but whats the best and shortest algorithm?
