Finding the inverse of the arc length function Change \textwidth and \textheight in mid-document I set my \textwidth and \textheight in the preamble and would like to change both for some pages. How can this be done? E.g., the following example for \textwidth appears to work for the page number, but not for the text:  \documentclass{article}  \textwidth=5cm \textheight=5cm \begin{document} A \hfill B \eject \textwidth=10cm A \hfill B \end{document}   Output (true to scale): Avoid trailing zeroes in printf() I keep stumbling on the format specifiers for the printf() family of functions.  What I want is to be able to print a double (or float) with a maximum given number of digits after the decimal point.  If I use:  printf("%1.3f", 359.01335); printf("%1.3f", 359.00999);   I get  359.013 359.010   Instead of the desired  359.013 359.01   Can anybody help me? If I have a sequence of .obj (or any other readable format) files created from my own simulation code (say cloth simulation), can I use the rendering capabilities of blender to generate a video?   Is there a way to set the material properties for frame 1 and use the same or rest of the frames while the corresponding meshes are imported afresh from that ones I provide? Is there a black hole in the centre of the Milky Way? Suppose $\{a_n\}$ is a sequence such that the subsequences $\{a_{2n−1}\}$ and $\{a_{2n}\}$ converge to the same limit, say $a$. Show that $\{a_n\}$ also converges to $a$. I already have the pink and red leather gloves, the armor, the crown, and the monkey's staff (and they're all enchanted). Regardless of how many health potions I use, I always die. Help! What's the simplest way to print a Java array? In Java, arrays don't override toString(), so if you try to print one directly, you get the className + '@' + the hex of the  of the array, as defined by Object.toString():  int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; System.out.println(intArray);     // prints something like '[I@3343c8b3'   But usually, we'd actually want something more like [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. What's the simplest way of doing that? Here are some example inputs and outputs:  // Array of primitives: int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; //output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  // Array of object references: String[] strArray = new String[] {"John", "Mary", "Bob"}; //output: [John, Mary, Bob] What are the guidelines for using version-specific tags? I believe that some of my questions were asked before but I didn't find any satisfying guidance. I just found only . I hope senior members will help me to understand the situation and use tags correctly.  I have several questions which are related to following explanation:   What is current community's attitude towards version specific tags on Stack Exchange?  How to correctly use version specific tags?  When is it good to create version specific tag? Should any version specific tags be at least marked as synonyms to version unspecific tags? Should I use version specific tags if I re-tagging questions?  Should I re-tag questions if I think that incorrect version specific tag is used?   For example, I mainly visiting questions related to two main topics: WCF and Entity framework. Tagging questions in these topics follow very different rules. WCF uses single main tag  sometimes combined with  currently proposed as synonym to WCF, whereas Entity framework currently have:      - version 2 and 3 never existed  - I started this tag myself but now I think it was a mistake   and two ridiculous tags (both for CTP5 of EF 4.1 – their meaningful lifetime was about 3 months):         I've already several times retagged questions introducing tag for EF 4.1 RC. Separate problem is in Code-first approach related strictly to  where 5 other tags are used to describe the same:           I asked for merging these tags in .  As you can see that EF topic currently contains too many tags to describe the same. There are other related tags to EF but they are mainly used as supporting tags for specific features.  First I thought this is a common situation because ASP.NET MVC uses also new tag for each version even questions usually asks for general problems related to any version but then I was informed by @Richard in  that EF is probably tag polluted.  I regularly retag questions in EF topic. Currently I'm using:     as general topic's tag because I was already informed by @Slauma  that people usually have only this tag between their favorites and I should not remove it. It was a good point.   for questions related directly to EFv4 features  for questions related directly to EF 4.1 features  for questions related to fluent and annotations mapping from EF 4.1   But still I think that  and  are somehow redundant but I'm not sure if my opinion is shared by other participants in these tags. WCF also has 3 versions and almost twice as more questions than EF and it still uses only single main tag  without any problem. I think the used version should be information included in a question.  Are there any general rules? What about version related tags to C#, .NET and ASP.NET MVC? I first thought that it is common and accepted approach to create version specific tags just because users around ASP.NET MVC (strong tag) do the same.  Sometimes I think I received privileges too early and I don't use them correctly. I need some guidance. How does RAID 1 determine which drive should act as the source for a rebuild? Here's my scenario -- both drives were working perfectly fine. I removed one of the drives for a while (building a new PC, didn't think I was going to use RAID anymore but changed my mind). I actually switch the SATA type to AHCI and was operating for about a week on the new system before deciding to re-enable RAID and reinstall the drive I had removed.   It's currently rebuilding, but I'm curious how it knows which one is the source and which one is out-of-date? I started to work with EEVEE short time ago and I was amazed by the capabilities of this engine. However, I noticed something strange when I was rendering some tests. Some objects/reflections/shadows dissapear when they're off canvas. I imagine that maybe this is for save memory data, but it can be not suitable to some projects. To make my point graphical, I made a simple scene with simple objects. The main object is the sphere with a mirror-like shader. Out of focus there are different objects with different shaders. A yellow cone, a blue cylinder and a white cube light. But surprisingly, those objects dissapear when the composition is rendered. See the rendered animation below:  Notice that the blue cylinder is not even showing at all in the final render. And the blooming effect from the light cube also dies. I would like to improve this bahaviour and render the objects that are still out of canvas using EEVEE. Do I missing something like memory configuration or reflection/shadow tweaks? Is this caused by the EEVEE engine or by my GPU config (GTX1060)? Thank you in advance! Comprehensive list of activation functions in neural networks with pros/cons Are there any reference document(s) that give a comprehensive list of activation functions in neural networks along with their pros/cons (and ideally some pointers to publications where they were successful or not so successful)? Guess the formula for $\sum\frac 1{(4n-3)(4n+1)}$ and prove by induction Multiplication principle and permutation Definition of Multiplication principle in Principles and Techniques in combinatorics by Chuan-Chong, Khee-Meng is given as:      Let $$\prod_{i=1}^rA_i=A_1\times\dots\times A_r=\{(a_1,\dots,a_r) | a_i\in A_i, i=1,\dots,r\}$$ denote the cartesian product of the finite sets $A_1,\dots,A_r.$ Then $$\left\vert \prod_{i=1}^r A_i \right\vert=|A_1|\times\dots\times|A_r|.$$   I want to know how this principle is applies in defining $P_r^n=n(n-1)\cdots2\cdot1$, ie, what are sets $A_1,\dots,A_r$ here? Is there any way to distribute spacing equally in every object?    Is there any option to do? I want 2MM spacing in every geometrical shape.  Thanks in advance.
