A Diophantine equation is an equation that only takes integer coefficients, and that can be written as , where f is a polynomial.
Diophantine analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, concerned with such equations.
Typical questions include:
Are there any solutions beyond some that are easily found by inspection?
Are there finitely or infinitely many solutions?
Can all solutions be found in theory?
Can one in practice compute a full list of solutions?
Very often such problems were unresolved for centuries.
With time, mathematicians  came to understand their depth (in some cases), rather than treat them as puzzles.
The equation is named after Diophantus of Alexandria, a mathematician, who described them first.
The restriction on integer coefficients makes sense, when one is concerned about finding Divisors, or in the case of modular arithmetic.
In everyday life, many equations solve problems where only whole numbers make sense: A product is composed of many parts, but only whole pieces can be produced.
Some diophantine equations are very famous.
These include the Pythagorean triple, Fermat's Last Theorem and Pell's equation.
Hilbert's tenth problem was to find an algorithm to decide, whether a given Diophantine equation has an integer solution.

"Money" is a song by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd.
The song was on their 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon.
It was  written by their bassist/co-lead singer Roger Waters, and it was the first song on the second side of the original album.
Money is the only song on the album to enter the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. "
Money" is noted for its unusual 7/4–4/4 time signature, and the sounds of money-related objects that begins the song.
One of Gilmour's ideas for the solo section was that, for the second chorus of the solo, all special effects would be completely off (referred to as "dry"), creating the sense of just four musicians playing in a small room.
For this "dry" chorus, all musicians played softly and subtly, with Gilmour's solo, now one single guitar, playing very little.
Then, for the third chorus, the dynamics would suddenly rise, with heavy use of reverb and echo (a "wet" sound), additional rhythm-guitar parts in the background, and the drums becoming heavy and almost chaotic.
The notes and chords are based on the regular twelve-bar blues in the musical key of B minor, with the sung melody and nearly all of Gilmour's solo based on the pentatonic and blues scales.
Two twelve-bar verses are followed by a twenty-bar instrumental section that features a blues-style tenor saxophone solo (played by Dick Parry) along with keyboard, bass and drums and a further two-bar intro in 4/4 leading to the guitar solo, which is structured like a twelve-bar blues, but doubled to a twenty-four-bar length.
The lyrics are quickly talked about in the movie Pink Floyd The Wall, when the main character, Pink, is caught writing poems in class by his teacher.
The teacher takes the poem from him and reads it in a very mean manner, wanting Pink's classmates to laugh.
The poem is a part of the lyrics to "Money".
The first rough recordings of the song, including some of the sound effects, were recorded in a small recording studio Roger Waters had in his garden shed.
As recorded by the band, the song has a sad feel, unlike Waters' original version, which he later talked about as "prissy and very English".
As heard on Classic Albums: Pink Floyd – The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon, the demo is in G-sharp minor, as opposed to the B minor of the final version.
The instrumental section was worked on by both Gilmour and Waters, with Gilmour overseeing the time change as well as his own guitar and voice work, and Richard Wright and Nick Mason making up their own parts.
Dick Parry added the tenor saxophone solo that comes before the guitar solo.
Gilmour's advice is also seen in the final mix, which features "wet" and "dry" sections.
To produce the special high notes that make up the final chorus of his solo, Gilmour played a special Lewis guitar with twenty-four frets, allowing a large variety of notes.
One of the special elements of "Money" are the sound effects that begin the song.
These were made by putting together recordings Waters had made of clinking coins, a ringing cash register, tearing paper, a clicking counting machine and other items.
In the video Classic Albums: Pink Floyd – The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon, engineer Alan Parsons talked about the recording of the band's first backing track for the song: They used the sound-effect tape loop as a sort of metronome, but Parsons gradually faded out the loop before the vocals started.
As the song went on, the band slowly sped up, yet later, between the second verse and the saxophone solo, Parsons briefly raised up the volume of the effects loop, and just by coincidence, it turned out to fit the beat.
After this point, the loop is not heard again.
Re-recording
The song was re-recorded for the 1981 Pink Floyd album, A Collection of Great Dance Songs, because Capitol Records refused to let Columbia Records have the track in the US.
With the help of producer James Guthrie, Gilmour re-recorded the song, providing vocals and playing all the instruments except saxophone (resulting in a much simpler drum part).
Parry again added the sax solo, redoing his role on the original recording.
David Gilmour - guitars, vocals
Roger Waters - music, lyrics, bass guitar, tape effects
Richard Wright - Wurlitzer electric piano
Nick Mason - drums
Dick Parry - tenor saxophone

It was unusual in that it had a diarchial system, with two kings ruling at the same time.
The kings were called Arkhagêtai.
They were hereditary rulers, and came from two separate dynasties.

These twins were said to be the descendants of Heracles, who conquered Sparta two generations after the Trojan War.
The dynasties were named after the twins' grandsons, the kings Agis I and Eurypon.
The Agiad line was regarded as being senior to the Eurypontid line.

It is the seventh of the team's fourteen operettas.
It opened at the Savoy Theatre on 25 November 1882.
It had a run of 398 performances.

Princess Ida; or, Castle Adamant is a three-act operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan.
It is the eighth of their fourteen operettas.
It premiered at the Savoy Theatre in London, England on 5 January 1884.
It had 246 performances, a short run compared with the team's other operettas.
After the operetta closed, it was not revived in London until 1919.
Gilbert based Princess Ida on a play he wrote in 1870 called The Princess.
This play was based, in turn, on The Princess, a long poem of 1847 by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.
Ida is the only Gilbert and Sullivan operetta in three acts.
It is their only operetta to be written in blank verse.
Princess Ida was a great success with early audiences, but the critics did not like it.
Sullivan told Gilbert three weeks after the opening that he would not write another comic opera, and it appeared their collaboration was over.
Princess Ida has its roots in the work of a poet little read today, and its themes are somewhat dated.
The operetta is not a modern audience favorite.
In her babyhood, Princess Ida was betrothed to Prince Hilarion.
In her young womanhood however, she has forsaken the company of men and has set up an all-female university.
Hilarion and two of his friends, Cyril and Florian, gain entrance to the school disguised as women.
They are discovered, and war ensues.
As the casualties mount, Princess Ida relents and accepts Hilarion as her husband to be.

The Jew of Malta is a play by Christopher Marlowe.
Marlowe's source is unknown.
It is possibly a forgotten story, or he may have studied Jewish life first-hand in London.
The exact date the play was written is uncertain.
It is certain though that it was written no earlier than December 1588.
It was first printed in 1633.
The play is unbalanced; the first two acts show a masterful hand while the last three do not.
The character of Barabas, the Jew, is a portrait of depth in the first two acts, but he descends to nothing more than a typical stage villain in the last three.
One critic believes the play was ordered on short notice by the players, and Marlowe had only enough time to sketch the character of Barrabas.
The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus is a play by Christopher Marlowe.
Marlowe's source was The English Faust Book of 1592.
The play was first performed about 1592.
It was first published in 1604.
It tells of a scholar who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for youth, power, knowledge, and wisdom.
The play contains the well known line, "Was this the face that launch'd a thousand ships?"
The play was released as a movie in 1967 starring Richard Burton.
Dido Queen of Carthage is a play by Christopher Marlowe.
The date of the play is uncertain.
It is probably Marlowe's first play, and possibly written while he was a student at Cambridge University.
The source material was Virgil's Aeneid and Ovid's Heroides.
Unlike his sources however, Marlowe emphasizes not the character of Aeneas but the character of Dido.

The Troublesome Reign and Lamentable Death of Edward the Second, King of England, with the Tragical Fall of Proud Mortimer is a play by Christopher Marlowe.

Tamburlaine is a play by Christopher Marlowe.

The Massacre at Paris is a play by Christopher Marlowe.
It is thought to be his last play, and probably written about 1593.
Massacre is about the slaughter of Protestants on Saint Bartholomew's Day in Paris in 1572.
The text is significantly flawed, and is likely an actor's recollection of the play rather than the text as Marlowe actually wrote it.
What is left of the play is violent and full of jokes about stabbing and murder.
As it stands, the play is impossible to perform without extensive alterations.

OpenVMS is an operating system, which Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) originally developed for their VAX servers.
Later, it was ported, and now also runs on DEC Alpha and  Itanium-based systems.
It is a 32 bit operating system.
When it was published in 1977, it was one of the first of its kind.
OpenVMS is capable of supporting many concurrent users; each user is able to run several programs at the same time.
It was also one of the first operating systems with a Graphical user interface, the VAXstation was a very popular workstation at the time.
OpenVMS uses virtual memory, and was originally developed as a time sharing, batch processing system.
It was made for transaction processing, and is a real-time system.
The jobs users submit can have a higher priority than those of the operating system.
The operating system offers high availability through clustering: The system load can be distributed over multiple computers.
That way, the system is "disaster-tolerant": One machine that fails will not shut the operation down.
It supported  computer networks, first using DECNet, later using TCP/IP
Symmetrical, asymmetrical, and NUMA multiprocessing, including clustering
An integrated database: first RMS, later Rdb
Support for different programming languages, including a standardized mechanism of calls between those programming languages
An extensible Shell
A high-level of security
Today, OpenVMS is used in many enterprises where availability and uptime are critical: These include banks and insurance companies.
System up-times of over a decade have been reported.
A feature called "rolling upgrade" allows  to upgrade software or hardware without the need to shut the system down.
A data center that is destroyed will not lead to downtime either, if the system is configured properly.
Customers using OpenVMS include banks and financial services, hospitals and healthcare, network information services, and large-scale industrial manufacturers of various products.

The Stringipoidea is a small superfamily of New Zealand parrots.
It only has three genera: Nestor, the Kakapo Strigops and the fossil Nelepsittacus.
The genus Nestor consists of the Kea, and the Kaka, while the genus Strigops contains the iconic Kākāpō.
All living species are endemic to New Zealand.
The modern common species names, Kea, Kākā and Kākāpō, are the same as the original Māori names.
The nearby island species, the Norfolk Kaka and the Chatham Kaka, became extinct in recent times.
The extinct species of the genus Nelepsittacus have been extinct for 16 million years.
All living forms are threatened.
Human activity caused the two extinctions and the decline of the other three species.
Settlers introduced invasive species, such as pigs and possums, which eat the eggs of ground nesting birds.
Also hunting for food, killing as agricultural pests, habitat loss, and introduced wasps have added to the problem.
The family diverged from the other parrots around 82 million years ago when New Zealand broke off from Gondwana, and the ancestors of the genera Nestor and Strigops diverged from each other between 60 and 80 million years ago.
