Correct way to use include and includeonly when writing a large document like a thesis How can I best describe "making a new discovery"? Executing a certain action for all elements in an Enumerable Zorn's lemma and maximal ideals Let's consider two statements: Zorn's lemma and theorem about existence of maximal ideals in commutative ring with $1$.  It's easy to prove that Zorn's lemma implies existence of maximal ideals.  I wonder if the converse proposition is true, i. e., does existence of maximal ideals implies Zorn's lemma? My approach was to construct a ring structure on an ordered set which satisfies Zorn's lemma condition such that existence of maximal ideal implies existence of maximal element in the set, but I didn't succeed.

Direction of friction for object that rolls with slipping Determine the number of ways to colour a 1 by n grid using the colours red and white if an even number of squares are to be coloured red. Send Email notification if task is not completed 7 days prior to the due date Check whether an array is a subset of another Any idea on how to check whether that list is a subset of another?  Specifically, I have  List&lt;double&gt; t1 = new List&lt;double&gt; { 1, 3, 5 }; List&lt;double&gt; t2 = new List&lt;double&gt; { 1, 5 };   How to check that t2 is a subset of t1, using LINQ? Let's take the numbers 0-10.  Their mean is 5, and the individual deviations from 5 are -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 And so the average (magnitude of) deviation from the mean is $30/11 \approx 2.72$.  However, this is not the standard deviation.  The standard deviation is $\sqrt{10} \approx 3.16$.  The first mean-deviation is a simpler and by far more intuitive definition of the "standard-deviation", so I'm sure it's the first definition statisticians worked with.  However, for some reason they decided to adopt the second definition instead.  What is the reasoning behind that decision? Context  In one of his most popular books , Terry Pratchett makes an entropy joke:     Knowledge equals Power, which equals Energy, which equals Mass   Pratchett is a fantasy comedian and every third phrase in his book is a joke, therefore there is no good reason to believe it.  Pratchett uses that madness to make up that a huge library has a tremendous gravitational push.  The question  I work with computers and mostly with encryption.  My work colleagues believe Terry Pratchett's statement because of entropy.  On the other hand, I believe, it is incorrect since entropy of information is a different entropy than the one used in thermodynamics.  Am I correct?  And if so, why do use the same name (entropy) to mean two different things?  Also, what would be a good way to explain that these two "entropies" are different things to non-scientists (i.e. people without a chemistry or physics background)? What's wrong with this experiment showing that either FTL communication is possible or complementarity doesn't hold? The assumptions are:    Alice and Bob have perfectly synchronized clocks Alice and Bob have successfully exchanged a pair of entangled photons   The idea is simply to have Alice and Bob perform the Quantum Eraser Experiment (doesn't need to be the delayed choice).   Alice and Bob agree on a specific time when Bob's photon will be between the "path marker" (which is usually just after the slits) and the detector.  If Alice acts collpasing the wave-function on her photon, the interference pattern will disappear. If not it won't.  Alice and Bob can be spatially separated...  What am I misunderstanding?   The only meaningful difference from this spatially separated quantum eraser experiment to one done on tabletop is that you won't be able to use a coincidence detector, but that is not impeditive to identifying the interference pattern, just will make errors more probable. Which we should be able to deal with a appropriate protocol...  There is a experimental paper with a small amount of citations pointing out to the breaking of complementarity in a very similar setup: How to create an empty file from command line Showing $\int_x^{x+1}f(t)\,dt \xrightarrow{x\to\infty}0$ for $f\in L^2 (\mathbb{R})$ Show that if $f\in L^2 (\mathbb{R})$ then    $$\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} g(x)=0,$$   where    $$g(x)=\int_x^{x+1}f(t)\,dt$$   Since $f \in  L^2 (\mathbb{R})$ then $f \in L^2[x,x+1]$ for every $x$. Then  $$|g(x)| \leq \left(\int_x^{x+1} f(t)^2 dt\right)^{\frac{1}{2}} \int_x^{x+1} 1 dt$$ $$|g(x)|\leq \left(\int_x^{x+1} f(t)^2 dt\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$$ Learning Insertion Sort in Ruby I have just started the MIT Introduction to Algorithms course through the material posted online. Along with the course I have also decided to learn/enhance my Ruby skills by coding the algorithms in it.   I am on the first algorithm given, which is Insertion sort, and I have the following code typed up but I am getting this error when I run it:     insertionsort.rb:5:in `>': comparison of Fixnum with nil failed (ArgumentError)   def  insertionsort(num) for j in 2..num.length     key = num[j]     i = j - 1     while i &gt; 0 and num[i] &gt; key         num[i+1] = num[i]         i = i - 1     end     num[i+1] = key end  puts num end  numbers = [23,34,46,87,12,1,66]  insertionsort(numbers)   I'm sure it is a fairly basic problem but I just can't grasp what it is at the moment. Any  help or tips would be very much appreciated. Finding an expression for $\tan (a+ b + y)$ which involves only $\tan a, \tan b,$ and $\tan y$. How to find this ?

Are all limits solvable without L'Hôpital Rule or Series Expansion This is a  about redirecting from http to https in Apache Related:     I have an Appache web server which serves both http://example.com/ and https://example.com/. I want to redirect all http requests to https. Currently I'm using this .htaccess rule to redirect http requests to https. RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}   It's working as expected for example.com but the same rule is not working for sub links, when I access existing links, like example.com/about it will still load in http, no redirection happens for existing links. How can I make Apache redirect all http requests to https?
