Talk:Polynomial remainder theorem

message: Firstly, the general form for polynomial long division is:
:\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=q(x) + \frac{r(x)}{g(x)}
and not
:\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=q(x) + \frac{r}{g(x)}
Consequently, we need to explain how to get from r(x) to r in the second equation, which was already in place before the edits.  I have now reverted this.
Secondly, "if the remainder is zero, then the linear divisor is a factor" is correct, and not "if the remainder is zero, then the linear factor is a divisor". Oli Filth 08:50, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Theorem's Discoverer? 

message: In the second example, in which the theorem is to be proved for the arbitrary second degree polynomal   f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, I added the explanation that \frac results from adding and subtracting  arx in the numerator then regrouping terms.  I believe this kind of elaboration is useful in mathematics articles, for those who understand the basic principle at work--in this case, algebraic manipulation--but still lack the experience to recognize immediately what is being done, and hence may not understand how the proof proceeds from one step to the next.Pithecanthropus4152 (talk) 21:53, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Examples 

message: Sorry, I have no editing experience on wikipedia. I would like to point out that the Remainder Theorem and Factor Theorem can be easily extended to non-linear divisors. Perhaps you could consider the possibility of inserting a simple example on the page, like the following.
Let  \  f=2x^{15} + 5x^3 +x^2-3x+3 \quad
\text{and}  \quad
m=x^3 -2  \ .
Substituting  \ 2 \   for   \ x^3 \     in   \ f(x) \    we obtain
 \ 2\cdot2^5 + 5\cdot2  + x^2 - 3x + 3 = 64 + 10+x^2-3x+3 =x^2-3x+ 77
which is the remainder of  \ f \  on division by   \ m. 
Then  \ x^3-2 \   does not divide   \ 2x^{15} + 5x^3 + x^2-3x +3 \ 
.

replies: text: The first sentence of the article says essentially that the polynomial remainder theorem is a special case of Euclidean division of polynomials when the divisor has degree 1. What you propose is simply a classical way of representing Euclidean division as a rewrite rule: If the divisor is written as x^n-q(x), where  has degree less than , then the remainder may be eventually obtained by substituting q(x)   for   x^n   in  f(x) until all terms have a degree lower than . This belongs to the article Euclidean division and should be added there if it is not already there. In any case, this can be generalized further to multivariate polynomials, see Multivariate division algorithm. As this way of viewing Euclidean division seems to be lacking in WP, it could be useful to add here as a generalization. D.Lazard (talk) 23:52, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

message: Is there any chance of citation for this article, such as in which issues Grey was absorbed by the Phalanx and her children killed?  A bibliography is provided, but there's no way to link any piece of information about the character to any particular issue.  This is an issue I've had with many comic book character entries on Wikipedia, where they mention a key event but don't mention in which issue it happened.

message: Following this article :
a light signal is sent at time \tau_1 from clock 1 to clock 2 and immediately back, e.g. by means of a mirror. Its arrival time back at clock 1 is \tau_2. This synchronisation convention sets clock 2 so that the time of signal reflection is \tau_1 + \tfrac{1}{2}(\tau_2 - \tau_1) = \tfrac{1}{2}(\tau_1 + \tau_2).

Talk:The Silent Three

message: So apparently if I was gone for a week this article would've just been deleted. Lucky I wasn't. Alright: deletion is not an option here. Girl-wonder is a reliable and trustworthy source and this is a research thesis done by a feminist writer. Clearly the documents talked about exist: School Friend Annual o shi-! So this doesn't fit the criteria for speedy deletion at all. Before tagging an article for deletion please make sure some random IP didn't come along and basically delete the original contents of the article, which were supported by the source, because that's what happened, they made their own unsourced additions. I'll trust it for now in terms of the names until we know otherwise.
Since it exists, deletion is not an option. A merge is a possible option. Since these characters appear in the Annuals for 'School Friend' if a larger article for School Friend is created then it could be merged into that. As of now I have no data on other stories in this publication though. I have reason to think that the Silent Three are the most notable group out of the School Friend series, for example read this blog:
*“The Silent Three” appear to be the most famous characters of the School Friend’s comic strips (they are in that British Comics book with Korky on the cover, dontcha know). I think that in it’s earlier days the paper also contained Charles Hamilton stories, but there’s none of that in this book. The Silent Three themselves belonged to a secret society in thier boarding school who put on robes and masks and fought against injustice (Kind of like a genteel version of V for Vengeance?)  Here they are on thier summer holidays, but another school is still in session and Betty’s cousin, captain of the fourth, is upset at her form being framed for a series of pranks. The pranks turn out to be the work of a corrupt prefect who has found a clue to a treasure hidden within the school and wants to keep it for herself. Whilst this may not be by Charles Hamilton it isn’t straying too far from his territory! (Nb. British girl’s comics, and probably storypapers before them, where almost entirely written by men)

These issues are considered the definitive issues of Batman by both the comic book industry and fans of Batman.

message: Mike Gold was added by an anonymous user when the infobox was added back in 2006  but he was mainly an editor who did some writing. According to the GCD the character's debut was drawn by Walt Simonson. Gold had a text piece at the end of the issue but that was a profile of Jack C. Harris, so I can see where there may have been some confusion if someone was working from incomplete information (an incomplete index of the issue might have listed Englehart and Gold as writers) but I see no reason to include him as a creator (he wasn't editor on this issue, for example) and will change the credit to Simonson.

replies: text: Its not a generic DHT API, though it rather uses a DHT-like structure for storing the name/address/hash mappings. Rather think of it as a service registry without any centralized server (technically it can be used as a registry for any resource, not just service endpoints). You can use it for WINS like name resolution - have file servers register their names and addresses in PNRP and clients query the address via PNRP. Or you can use it like Bonjour-like zeroconf service discovery - have services register their addresses and some metadata via PNRP and have clients issue PNRP queries. Or you can even use it for applications like IM or games - have these applications register the address and who is available on the address via PNRP and others can have than information via PNRP resolutions. PNRP gives you a very important tool to enable all these scenarios. But it isn't an end to end solution. All these scenarios will need a significant amount of custom coding. --soum talk 14:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Though the covers were printed in colour, during Odhams' publication they did not utilise the conventional four-colour (CMYK) model. Scans visible on the internet appear to substantiate this, but anyone with printed copies could confirm. As I remember, a solid navy blue was substituted for the more usual black (K = key) component and the cyan component (C) was left out altogether. Yellow was printed, but may (or may not) have been the "tri-yellow" (Y) used as part of the CMYK set. I also believe a solid red was printed as substitute for the magenta (M) component, which would make the covers a three- rather than a four-colour printing. I don't recall whether this method persisted after IPC took over -- though I think not.

thread_title:  What's the formula? 

message: I was under the impression that the (C)LUT (look-up table) in the RAMDAC is used today for display calibration.
Display calibration can range from simple, fairly mainstream software calibration routines like Adobe Gamma, to hardware solutions used mainly by photographers and designers. Since every computer display (and I mean every unique unit shipped) has a certain deviation from an ideal colour balance, display calibration involves measuring (profiling) this deviation when displaying known coloured patches, and using the measured values to compensate. This allows for a decent match between displays.
The actual compensating is done by placing the correct values in the video card's LUT (look-up table).
I'm not sure whether the LUT I just mentioned is indeed part of the RAMDAC, but if it is, the following section (and possibly other sections) of the article will need modification:
:The SRAM can usually be bypassed and the DACs can be fed directly by display data, for Truecolor modes. In fact this has become very much the normal mode of operation of a RAMDAC since the mid-1990s, so the programmable palette is mostly retained only as a legacy feature to ensure compatibility with old software. In many newer graphics cards, the RAMDAC can be clocked much faster in true color modes, when the SRAM is not used.
