In the decimal, or base 10, system, a three-digit number contains the hundreds, tens and units positions - or 102, 101, and 100.... A three-digit number in base 5 contains the 52, 51, and 50 positions. The base 5 number 243 is not two hundred forty-three; instead, it is two four three base 5. But we can convert it to a decimal number... Here is some information about your aliens. The number that we call ten is special in our number representation system because the digits count powers of ten.

A: A group of 10 sequences is reserved for each "base" anything, and it's always a multiple of 10. If you want to add a creature that walks around with sequences 601, 603, 607, and 609, then the BASE WALK should be set to 600. If you want to add a creature that attacks with sequences 531, 533, 537, and 539, then the BASE ATTACK would be 530. Basically, the "base" gives a quick number to use by simply adding the direction. If facing right (direction 6) then 530 + 6 = 536. See similar questions...

A number of routine program questions are received daily at DXCC. Most of this information can be found within these FAQs and in the rules section on the DXCC web site.

Yes. Some camps have fewer than 28 students, so students are broken up into only 1 or 2 groups. In these cases, younger students may be in either Twelfth Night or The Winter's Tale instead of Faraway Lands, or all age levels may be together, depending on the age breakdown. Also, if we have more than 14 students in one age group, the students at the younger and older ends of the spectrum may be moved into the younger and older groups.

For new installations we can be in and out within one or three weeks. The rule of thumb for flooring is 1000 square feet per every 3 days. The biggest factors are the irregular flooring areas (such as a closet or hallway) and the drying time for the jobs where certain oils are selected. Plan on 24 hours per coat of drying time.

B-1 visa holders cannot take up work in the U.S. The general rule is that the activities of the B-1 person in the U.S. must be for the benefit of the foreign employer. As the State Department's Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) puts it, "Engaging in business contemplated for B-1 visa classification generally entails business activities other than the performance of skilled or unskilled labor."

A big part of the reason that we use hexadecimal is that it is relatively easy to convert between binary and hexadecimal. Hexadecimal numbers are closely related to binary, but they are shorter and easier to read than binary. Group the binary digits into groups of 4 starting from the right... See similar questions...

Given a binary number you start by grouping the binary "1" and "0" digits in groups of 3, starting at the right. Then convert each of these groups into one octal digit. In the base six number system, you would never use the numeral 7, only numerals from 0 to 5. See similar questions...

Suppose a player is nearing retirement, and he wants to finish his career with a team that can only offer him their Mid-Level exception. If they want to give the player more money than the Mid-Level exception would allow, then there is a potential loophole they could exploit by signing a contract for more years than they expect the player to play. For example, suppose the Mid-Level exception is $5 million. With 8% raises, a four-year contract would total $22.4 million. See similar questions...

Crawford rule means that in a Series of matches (a.k.a. Match Play), if one player is one point below the goal, on the next game the doubling cube is unavailable for one game only. Example: Suppose 2 players play a match up to 7. If the score is 6-2, then for the next game the doubling cube won't be available. However if the game is won by the player behind, the score would be 6-3 and on the next game the doubling cube would be available. See similar questions...

As per the President's Memo of February 18, 1997, a "one-for-one" rule was instituted. This rule states that, generally, for every new course, program, or expansion of existing programs proposed, an equivalent number of such units must be discontinued. Further, this discontinuation must be documented in the proposal. The rule is intended to "curriculum creep" that may "injure institutional integrity." This requirement may be waived.

while this seems like a simple question actuator sizing is probably one of the most misunderstood components of valve sizing. Actuator sizing is based on providing sufficient energy to overcome the process pressure P1, P2. In some cases sizing can be calculated on the differential pressure but the preferred practice is to use the maximum shut-off pressure (P1) and assume the downstream pressure (P2) is zero.

I have in the past painted exposed interior colors as follows. For Early model A6M Zeroes I have used blue-green for exposed interior and for cockpit color. This was done as directed by the model paint sheet for it was a Monogram model. For late war fighters A6M5c Zero and N1K2-J Shiden I have used exposed interior color same as exterior, and cockpit color blue-green. This was probably also as directed per the model build sheet or I may have looked at some photos. See similar questions...

There are two basic methods for converting whole numbers from binary (or any other base) to base 10.
