if n^3 has a fast rate of growth than n^2 i.e. O(n^2)<O(n^3) then why is n^2 better than n^3?
What is a plain English explanation of "Big O" notation?
See dashboard as non logged user in community Is it possible, as a non logged user, to see report and dashboard in community when it is open to non logged user? And  for analytic dashboards? When I finished Normal Mode at around Level 30 and went back to the  (still at Normal mode), I found that all enemies there are now very easy to kill, meaning they didn't level up (or hit a level cap).  When I went to  as a Level 36 character in True Vault Hunter Mode, I noticed that the enemies are the same level as me.  What factors determine enemy levels?   Specifically, I would like to know:       Are enemies affected by what level a character accepted a mission?      Or is it what level a character is when they first entered an area?      How does Normal Mode, True Vault Hunter mode, and the Ultimate True Vault Hunter Mode affect enemy levels?     Are there enemies that will scale to the player level, as the player levels up? Any enemy leveling differences specific to the DLC areas?         EDIT:   There is now  that explains how this works generally: "In playthrough 1, outside of the DLC, there's no such thing as scaling. Enemy levels are determined solely by the area they're in and your mission." Can anyone expound on that, and comment or provide an answer on what are the specific enemy levels on specific areas and/or missions?    states that "enemies do not actually "scale", or at least from what we know of..." and lists specifics for enemy levels on certain areas in the game (sans DLC areas). Can anyone expound on that and/or add specifics for enemy levels in the DLC missions or areas in TVHM (PT 2.0) and/or UTVHM? The  update has just been released, can anyone provide info about enemy levels on that mode, including the DLC areas or missions? Check Constraint with Case Statement Combinatorial Proof Question: Vandermonde convolution identity I'm really iffy on combinatorial proofs in general and now that there is a sum, it's just confused me even more. Can someone try and walk me through this proof?  $$ \binom{m + n}{r} = \sum_{k=0}^r \binom{m}{k}\binom{n}{r - k} $$ Accessing inherited variable from templated parent class Consider the following code:  template&lt;class T&gt; class Foo { public:   Foo() { a = 1; }  protected:   int a; };  template&lt;class T&gt; class Bar : public Foo&lt;T&gt; { public:   Bar() { b = 4; };    int Perna(int u);  protected:   int b;  };  template&lt;class T&gt; int Bar&lt;T&gt;::Perna(int u)  {    int c = Foo&lt;T&gt;::a * 4; // This works   return (a + b) * u;    // This doesn't }   g++ 3.4.6, 4.3.2 and 4.1.2 give error   test.cpp: In member function `int Bar&lt;T&gt;::Perna(int)': test.cpp:25: error: `a' was not declared in this scope   g++ 2.96 and MSVC 6, 7, 7.1, 8 and 9 accept it, as do (at least) older Intel and SGI c++ compilers.   Do the new Gnu C++ compiler obey the standard or not? If they do, what is the rationale behind that inheriting class is not able to see a protected inherited member variable?  Also, if there's  int A() { return a; }    in Foo, I get error  test.cpp:25: error: there are no arguments to A that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of A must be available test.cpp:25: error: (if you use -fpermissiveâ, G++ will accept your code, but allowing the use of an undeclared name is deprecated)   when I try to use it in a member function of Bar. I find that curious as well: Bar inherits Foo, so I think it's obvious that A() in scope of Bar is Foo::A(). Cannot redeem bounty I have about 25K of bounty vouchers but I cannot seem to redeem them. I believe I am sitting in the proper station and it has a office to redeem claimed bounties.  Bounty: 25,380 CR BOUNTY IN INDEPENDENT ERAVATE FREE  STATION: CLEVE HUB / INDEPENDENT ERAVATE NETWORK   If I am in the wrong station how do I find the information needed to travel to the correct station. Where can i see the faction running the station prior to flying there? Where can I get a Master Ball? I remember in previous generations that finding a Master Ball would typically come after a major Boss fight. You could have also gotten through some form of lottery (I think this was in Pearl).  If anything, where and when will I be able to find Master Balls in Pokemon X&amp;Y? A person who speaks kindly. Sometimes she might be hard, but fair.   What is an adjective to describe such person?

However, I need to disable the touchscreen input permanently and I tried everything I could found but nothing works.  The closest thing I could manage was to make a shell script that will run at startup (the shell script calls xinput set-prop "Touchscreen Input Name" "Device Enabled" 0 command).   However, this script will not run until I log in. My touchscreen needs to be disabled at the log-in screen.  How can I solve this? I tried modifying the 10-evdev.conf file but all I got is a purple screen and a broken Ubuntu setup. What is $\int_{c}^{\infty}\Phi(a+bx) \phi( x ) dx$ for $c\in\mathbb{R}$ It is straightforward to show $$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\Phi(a+bx) \phi( x ) dx = \Phi\left(\frac{a}{\sqrt{1+b^2}}\right)$$ but what value does $$\int_{c}^{\infty}\Phi(a+bx) \phi( x ) dx$$ have for $c&lt;\infty$, e.g., for $c=0$? Even a good approximation would really help me! How to check if running on UI thread in Android? Why shouldn't we allow NULLs? I remember reading this one article about database design and I also remember it said you should have field properties of NOT NULL.  I don't remember why this was the case though.  All I can seem to think of is that, as an application developer, you wouldn't have to test for NULL and a possible nonexistent data value (for instance, an empty string for strings).  But what do you do in the case of dates, datetime, and time (SQL Server 2008)?  You'd have to use some historic or bottomed-out date.  Any ideas on this?

I am trying to plot the function 1/x^2 but the result is obviously wrong, here is how it looks like    here is the code  \begin{center}      \begin{tikzpicture}      \begin{axis}[      %xlabel=$x$,     %ylabel={$f(x) = x^2 - x +4$}   ]      \addplot[blue] {1/(x^2)};     \end{axis}     \end{tikzpicture} \end{center}   Any suggestions on how to fix this?
