Prime Numbers: A Computational Perspective

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Prime numbers beckon to the beginner, the basic notion of primality being accessible to a child. Yet, some of the simplest questions about primes have stumped humankind for millennia. In this book, the authors concentrate on the computational aspects of prime numbers, such as recognizing primes and discovering the fundamental prime factors of a given number. Over 100 explicit algorithms cast in detailed pseudocode are included in the book. Applications and theoretical digressions serve to illuminate, justify, and underscore the practical power of these algorithms. The 2 nd edition adds new material on primality and algorithms and updates all the numerical records, such as the largest prime, etc. It has been revised throughout. From the reviews of the first edition: `…The exercises are a gold mine of interesting examples, pointers to the literature and potential research projects. … Prime Numbers is a welcome addition to the… [detailed...]

Prime Time Animation: Television Animation and American Culture

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe contributors explore a series of key issues and questions, including: How do we explain the animation explosion of the 1960s? Why did it take nearly twenty years following the cancellation of The Flintstones for animation to find its feet again as primetime fare? In addressing these questions, as well as many others, essays in the first section examine the relation between earlier, made-for-cinema animated production (such as the Warner Looney Toons shorts) and television-based animation, the role of animation in the economies of broadcast and cable television, and the links between animation production and brand image. Contributors also examine specific programs like The Powerpuff Girls, Daria, The Simpsons, Ren and Stimpy and South Park from the perspective of fans, exploring fan cybercommunities, investigating how ideas of `class` and `taste` apply to recent TV animation, and addressing themes such as irony, alienation, and representations of the family.

Prime Time: How Baby Boomers Will Revolutionize Retirement and Transform America

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This `inspiring, informative, mind-opening book` ( New York Times ) provides a new vision on aging, retirement, and the role of older Americans in the 21st century. Over the next three decades, the number of Americans over fifty will double, swelling to more than a quarter of the population. Already we are living thirty years longer than a century ago, with further gains expected in the coming years. The end result is a new stage of life, one as long or longer than childhood or middle age in duration, and one spent in unprecedented good health. Yet, as individuals, and as a society, we`ve shown little imagination or wisdom in using this great gift of a third age. Marc Freedman identifies the new longevity as not a problem to be solved, but an opportunity to be seized-provided we can engage the experience, talent, and idealism of older Americans. At a juncture when the middle-generation faces a time-famine, struggling to simultaneously raise kids and work long hours on the job,… [detailed...]

Prime Times : Writers on Their Favorite TV Shows

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe literary mind and the boob tube are often thought to have little in common, but the two have been trysting in dimly lit rooms since television’s earliest days. To prove the point, Doug Bauer asked a number of the finest writers of our time to reveal their own forays into a medium that has been called everything from a vast wasteland to the electronic dream machine of the global village. The results are surprising, passionate, very personal, and often downright hilarious. From Nora Ephron on The Mary Tyler Moore Show to Nick Hornby on The West Wing , Susan Cheever on Father Knows Best to Henry Louis Gates Jr. on Amos ’n’ Andy , the full range of televised fare is captured—sitcoms and soaps, police dramas and reality TV, the very new and the very old, and the much criticized and denounced and the truly iconic and beloved. Prime Times is an eclectic gathering of autobiography, memory, and blade-sharp… [detailed...]

Description: Two years after the opening of Liquor, New Orleans chefs Rickey and G-man are immersed in the life of their restaurant, enjoying a loyal cast of diners, and cooking great booze-laced food. All’s well until a bad review in a local paper not-so-subtly hints that their “silent” backer, celebrity chef Lenny Duveteaux, has ulterior motives. When Lenny is accused of serious criminal activity by eccentric D.A. Placide Treat, Rickey and G-man realize it may be time to end their dependence on him. When Rickey is offered a plum consulting job at a Dallas restaurant, it seems the perfect way to beef up their bank account. But taking the gig will mean a reunion with Cooper Stark, the older chef with whom Rickey shared an unsettling cocaine-fueled encounter back in culinary school, as well as dealing with gung-ho Texas businessman/restaurateur Frank Firestone. At G-man’s urging, Rickey finally accepts the offer and revamps Firestone’s menu to rave reviews. Home in New Orleans, Rickey… [detailed...]

Primitive Recursive Arithmetic: Primitive Recursive Arithmetic, Quantification, Thoralf Skolem, Finitism, Foundations of Mathematics, Ordinal Analysis, Peano Axioms, Natural Number

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Primitive recursive arithmetic, or PRA, is a quantifier-free formalization of the natural numbers. It was first proposed by Skolem as a formalization of his finitist conception of the foundations of arithmetic, and it is widely agreed that all reasoning of PRA is finitist. Many also believe that all of finitism is captured by PRA, but others believe finitism can be extended to forms of recursion beyond primitive recursion, up to ?0, which is the proof-theoretic ordinal of Peano arithmetic. PRA`s proof theoretic ordinal is ??, where ? is the smallest transfinite ordinal. PRA is sometimes called Skolem arithmetic. The language of PRA can express arithmetic propositions involving natural numbers and any primitive recursive function, including the operations of addition, multiplication, and exponentiation. PRA cannot explicitly quantify over the domain of natural numbers. PRA is often taken as the basic metamathematical formal system for proof… [detailed...]

Primitive Recursive Function: Primitive Recursive Function, Primitive Recursive Arithmetic, Quantification, Thoralf Skolem, Finitism, Foundations of Mathematics, … Analysis, Peano Axioms, Natural Number

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The primitive recursive functions are defined using primitive recursion and composition as central operations and are a strict subset of the recursive functions. The term was coined by Rozsa Peter. In computability theory, primitive recursive functions are a class of functions which form an important building block on the way to a full formalization of computability. These functions are also important in proof theory. Most of the functions normally studied in number theory are primitive recursive. For example: addition, division, factorial, exponential and the nth prime are all primitive recursive. So are many approximations to real-valued functions. In fact, it is difficult to devise a function that is not primitive recursive, although some are known. The set of primitive recursive functions is known as PR in complexity theory. Every primitive recursive function is a general recursive function. [detailed...]

Primordial Alchemy and Modern Religion: Essays on Traditional Cosmology

2008 y.
Publisher: Sophia Perennis
Description: Of all the traditional sciences it is alchemy—based as it is in metallurgy—that is directly concerned with the coming of the industrial order. In alchemical terms modern man lives in the Ferric Age and his state is best analogized to the properties of the metal iron, hard, cold, unbending but quick to succumb to corrosion and rust. The great ancient wisdom traditions of the world all anticipated this present age for it was already implicit in the technological and other changes that brought on the dawn of history. These ancient traditions - dismissed as childish superstitions by the scientist—contain ideas essential to the self-understanding that contemporary man so desperately needs. This is the central contention of the writings brought together in Primordial Alchemy &, Modern Religion. Drawing upon many unexpected sources—especially Plato and the ancient Greeks—these wide-ranging, generous essays provide timely reiterations of ancient alchemical traditions and trace some pivotal… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Prince Albert Victor, King Edward Vll`s (r. 1901–10) first son and heir to the throne, popularly known as Eddy, has virtually been airbrushed out of history. Eddy was as popular and charismatic a figure in his own time as Princess Diana a century later. As in her case, his sudden death in 1892 resulted in public demonstrations of grief on a scale rarely seen at the time, and it was even rumored (as in the case of Diana) that he was murdered to save him besmirching the monarchy. Had he lived, he would have been crowned king in 1911, ushering in a profoundly different style of monarchy from that of his younger brother, who ultimately succeeded as the stodgy George V. Eddy`s life was virtually ignored by historians until the 1970s, when myths began to accumulate and his character somehow grew horns and a tail. As a result, he is remembered today primarily as a suspect in the Jack the Ripper murders of 1888 and for his alleged involvement in the Cleveland Street homosexual scandal of… [detailed...]
