[email protected] www.caerphilly.gov.uk/equalities How to type Accented Characters This guidance document has been produced to provide practical help when typing letters or circulars, or when designing posters or flyers so that getting accents on various letters when typing is made easier. The guide should be used alongside the Council’s Guidance on Equalities in Designing and Printing. Please note this is for PCs only and will not work on Macs. Firstly, on your keyboard make sure the Num Lock is switched on, or the codes shown in this document won’t work (this button is found above the numeric keypad on the right of your keyboard). By pressing the ALT key (to the left of the space bar), holding it down and then entering a certain sequence of numbers on the numeric keypad, it's very easy to get almost any accented character you want. For example, to get the letter “ô”, press and hold the ALT key, type in the code 0 2 4 4, then release the ALT key. The number sequences shown from page 3 onwards work in most fonts in order to get an accent over “a, e, i, o, u”, the vowels in the English alphabet. In other languages, for example in French, the letter "c" can be accented and in Spanish, "n" can be accented too. Many other languages have accents on consonants as well as vowels.

  • Your Baby Has Hemoglobin E Or Hemoglobin O Trait for Parents
    NEW HAMPSHIRE NEWBORN SCREENING PROGRAM Your Baby Has Hemoglobin E or Hemoglobin O Trait For Parents All infants born in New Hampshire are screened for a panel of conditions at birth. A small amount of blood was collected from your baby’s heel and sent to the laboratory for testing. One of the tests looked at the hemoglobin in your baby’s blood. Your baby’s test found that your baby has either hemoglobin E trait or hemoglobin O trait. The newborn screen- ing test cannot tell the difference between hemoglobin E and hemoglobin O so we do not know which one your baby has. Both hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait are common and do not cause health problems. Hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait will never develop to disease. What is hemoglobin? Hemoglobin is the part of the blood that carries oxygen to all parts of the body. There are different types of hemoglobin. The type of hemoglobin we have is determined from genes that we inherit from our parents. Genes are the instructions for how our body develops and functions. We have two copies of each gene; one copy is inherited from our mother in the egg and one copy is inherited from our father in the sperm. What are hemoglobin E trait and hemoglobin O trait? The normal, and most common, type of hemoglobin is called hemoglobin A. Hemoglobin E trait is when a baby inherited one gene for hemoglobin A from one parent and one gene for hemoglobin E from the other parent.

  • Alphabets, Letters and Diacritics in European Languages (As They Appear in Geography)
    1 Vigleik Leira (Norway): [email protected] Alphabets, Letters and Diacritics in European Languages (as they appear in Geography) To the best of my knowledge English seems to be the only language which makes use of a "clean" Latin alphabet, i.d. there is no use of diacritics or special letters of any kind. All the other languages based on Latin letters employ, to a larger or lesser degree, some diacritics and/or some special letters. The survey below is purely literal. It has nothing to say on the pronunciation of the different letters. Information on the phonetic/phonemic values of the graphic entities must be sought elsewhere, in language specific descriptions. The 26 letters a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z may be considered the standard European alphabet. In this article the word diacritic is used with this meaning: any sign placed above, through or below a standard letter (among the 26 given above); disregarding the cases where the resulting letter (e.g. å in Norwegian) is considered an ordinary letter in the alphabet of the language where it is used. Albanian The alphabet (36 letters): a, b, c, ç, d, dh, e, ë, f, g, gj, h, i, j, k, l, ll, m, n, nj, o, p, q, r, rr, s, sh, t, th, u, v, x, xh, y, z, zh. Missing standard letter: w. Letters with diacritics: ç, ë. Sequences treated as one letter: dh, gj, ll, rr, sh, th, xh, zh.

  • The O and O Notation Let F and G Be Functions of X. 1. Big O. We Define F
    The O and o notation Let f and g be functions of x. 1. Big O. We define f =O(g) to mean f=g is bounded, some limit process for x being given. For example if that process is x ! +1 then f =O(g) means that for some bound c and lower limit xc say, jf(x)=g(x)j ≤ c for all x ≥ xc. O saves us from specifying c and xc each time. Mostly g(x) will be a power of x, including x0 = 1. \Big O" is short for \Order" which in this context means size, so f =O(g) means, roughly, that f is not bigger than g: Examples (a) xp =O(xq) as x ! +1 if p ≤ q; but not as x ! 0+ (we need p ≥ q then). (b) f(x) =O(1) means f is bounded (for the given limit process). Similarly, cf =O(1) for any constant c. −1 (c) (x − 1) =O(1) as x ! +1 (take c = 1 and xc = 2). In fact we shall see below that (x − 1)−1 =O(x−1). Note that (x − 1)−1 is not bounded for all x (take x = 1). 2. Small o. We define f =o(g) to mean f=g ! 0, again for some given limit process in x. For example if the process is x ! +1 then f =o(g) means that for each " > 0 there is x" so that jf(x)=g(x)j < " whenever x ≥ x". \Small o" means \of smaller order", and saves us from specifying " and x" each time.

    o-SYMBOLS MATH 166: HONORS CALCULUS II Definitions The symbol o(g(x)) stands for a function f(x) that satisfies f(x) lim = 0. x→a g(x) The limit is usually taken as x → 0. When it is some other number, a 6= 0, the number a will usually be mentioned explicitly. Our primary use of o-symbols is with powers of x. So, for example, we use the term o(x3) to stand for an arbitrary function f(x) that satisfies f(x)/x3 → 0 as x → 0. These o-symbols are often very useful for calculating Taylor polynomials and finding limits. As an extension of the notation, we write “f(x) = h(x) + o(g(x))” to mean that f(x) − h(x) lim = 0. x→a g(x) For example, the Lagrange form of the remainder term in Taylor’s formula is f (n+1)(c ) E f(x; a) = x (x − a)n+1. n (n + 1)! Since E f(x; a) f (n+1)(c ) f (n+1)(a) lim n = lim x (x − a) = · 0 = 0 x→a (x − a)n x→a (n + 1)! (n + 1)! n we see that Enf(x; a) = o (x − a) and we may express Taylor’s formula as n X f (k)(a) f(x) = (x − a)k + o(x − a)n. k! k=0 This allows us to rewrite any expression that involves complicated functions in terms of simple polynomials and o-terms. We already know how to combine and simplify polynomials. To be able to simplify the more general expressions we need to know how to combine and simplify o-terms.
