Appendix A. Spelling List Appendix A. Spelling List This appendix shows the treatment of technical terms that are encountered frequently in AFS publications. There are two lists, one for terms relating to mathematics and statistics and one for other terms. Parts of speech are abbreviated as follows: adj = adjective, adv = adverb, n = noun, and v = verb. Superscripted numerals refer to notes at the end of the appendix. The sources for the second list are abbreviated as follows: W11 = Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, 11th edition; W3 = Webster’s Third New International Dictionary (but not W11); CMS = Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition; CBE = Scientific Style and Format, 6th edition (Council of Biology Editors, Cambridge, UK); and FT = Fisheries Techniques, 2nd edition (American Fisheries Society, Bethesda, Maryland). Asterisks indicate terms that are not in either of the two dictionaries, plus signs terms for which AFS’s treatment differs from that in these dictionaries. 1.

  • Supreme Court of the State of New York Appellate Division: Second Judicial Department
    Supreme Court of the State of New York Appellate Division: Second Judicial Department A GLOSSARY OF TERMS FOR FORMATTING COMPUTER-GENERATED BRIEFS, WITH EXAMPLES The rules concerning the formatting of briefs are contained in CPLR 5529 and in § 1250.8 of the Practice Rules of the Appellate Division. Those rules cover technical matters and therefore use certain technical terms which may be unfamiliar to attorneys and litigants. The following glossary is offered as an aid to the understanding of the rules. Typeface: A typeface is a complete set of characters of a particular and consistent design for the composition of text, and is also called a font. Typefaces often come in sets which usually include a bold and an italic version in addition to the basic design. Proportionally Spaced Typeface: Proportionally spaced type is designed so that the amount of horizontal space each letter occupies on a line of text is proportional to the design of each letter, the letter i, for example, being narrower than the letter w. More text of the same type size fits on a horizontal line of proportionally spaced type than a horizontal line of the same length of monospaced type. This sentence is set in Times New Roman, which is a proportionally spaced typeface. Monospaced Typeface: In a monospaced typeface, each letter occupies the same amount of space on a horizontal line of text. This sentence is set in Courier, which is a monospaced typeface. Point Size: A point is a unit of measurement used by printers equal to approximately 1/72 of an inch.

  • 2.1 Typography
    Working With Type FUN ROB MELTON BENSON POLYTECHNIC HIGH SCHOOL WITH PORTLAND, OREGON TYPE Points and picas If you are trying to measure something very short or very thin, then inches are not precise enough. Originally English printers devised picas to precisely measure the width of type and points to precise- ly measure the height of type. Now those terms are used interchangeably. There are 12 points in one pica, 6 picas in one inch — or 72 points in one inch. This is a 1-point line (or rule). 72 of these would be one inch thick. This is a 12-point rule. It is 1 pica thick. Six of these would be one inch thick. POINTS PICAS INCHES Thickness of rules I Lengths of rules Lengths of stories I Sizes of type (headlines, text, IWidths of text, photos, cutlines, IDepths of photos and ads cutlines, etc.) gutters, etc. (though some publications use IAll measurements smaller than picas for photo depths) a pica. Type sizes Type is measured in points. Body type is 7–12 point type, while display type starts at 14 point and goes to 127 point type. Traditionally, standard point sizes are 14, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60 and 72. Using a personal computer, you can create headlines in one-point increments beginning at 4 point and going up to 650 point. Most page designers still begin with these standard sizes. The biggest headline you are likely to see is a 72 pt. head and it is generally reserved for big stories on broadsheet newspapers.

  • Utah Code Examples of Hyphenation the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel Has Not Adopted Rigid Rules Regarding Hyphenation
    Utah Code Examples of Hyphenation The Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel has not adopted rigid rules regarding hyphenation. The decision of whether or not to hyphenate rests with the drafter. However, a drafter should be as consistent as possible with the general practices in the Utah Code. The following are guidelines to assist the drafter in knowing when hyphens are used in the Utah Code as of 2012. For further guidance, see The Chicago Manual of Style (16th ed. 2010) and the Webster's Third New International Dictionary, or Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary. In general, if no suitable example or analogy can be found either in the code or the dictionary, hyphenate only if doing so will aid readability. GENERALLY NOT HYPHENATED go all out (adverb) "inter" words: intercounty "post" words: postaudit attorney in fact interdepartmental postgraduate "bi" words: biannually interhospital postmortem bimonthly interlocal agreement postsecondary bipartisan interstate post office biweekly "intra" words: intradepartmental "pre" words: preemptive "by" words: bylaws intragovernmental preexisting bypass intrastate preplan byroad last known address preschool car pool (noun) low income housing privately owned carpool (verb) "micro" words: microchip "pro" words: pro rata checkoff microorganisms prorate "co" words: "multi" words: multicar "re" words: reelect *With few exceptions, when the prefix multipurpose reemploy is "co" and the base word begins with multiunit nameplate reentered an "o," use a hyphen: nationwide reexamined co-owner

This hides implementation details (cf. inheritance) while allowing methods to operate on many types of input. • Python is a universal, imperative, object-oriented language.
