  • TITLE of the PAPER 1. First Steps 2 1.1. General Mathematics 2 1.2
    TITLE OF THE PAPER STEVEN J. MILLER ABSTRACT. The point of these notes is to give a quick introduction to some of the standard commands of LaTeX; for more information see any reference book. Thus we concentrate on a few key things that will allow you to handle most situations. For the most part, we have tried to have the text describe the commands; though of course we cannot do this everywhere. You should view both the .tex code and the output (either .pdf or .dvi) simultaneously. CONTENTS 1. First Steps 2 1.1. General Mathematics 2 1.2. One Line Equations 3 1.3. Labeling Equations 4 1.4.

  • HTML URL Encoding
    HHTTMMLL UURRLL EENNCCOODDIINNGG http://www.tutorialspoint.com/html/html_url_encoding.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com URL encoding is the practice of translating unprintable characters or characters with special meaning within URLs to a representation that is unambiguous and universally accepted by web browsers and servers. These characters include: ASCII control characters - Unprintable characters typically used for output control. Character ranges 00-1F hex 0 − 31decimal and 7F 127decimal. A complete encoding table is given below. Non-ASCII control characters - These are characters beyond the ASCII character set of 128 characters. This range is part of the ISO-Latin character set and includes the entire "top half" of the ISO-Latin set 80-FF hex 128 − 255decimal. A complete encoding table is given below. Reserved characters - These are special characters such as the dollar sign, ampersand, plus, common, forward slash, colon, semi-colon, equals sign, question mark, and "at" symbol. All of these can have different meanings inside a URL so need to be encoded. A complete encoding table is given below. Unsafe characters - These are space, quotation marks, less than symbol, greater than symbol, pound character, percent character, Left Curly Brace, Right Curly Brace , Pipe, Backslash, Caret, Tilde, Left Square Bracket , Right Square Bracket, Grave Accent. These character present the possibility of being misunderstood within URLs for various reasons. These characters should also always be encoded. A complete encoding table is given below. The encoding notation replaces the desired character with three characters: a percent sign and two hexadecimal digits that correspond to the position of the character in the ASCII character set.

  • Percent Notation
    MAT 040: Basic Math Learning Unit 10: Handout Percent Notation Meaning of percent The word percent means hundredths. The symbol for percent is %. A percent can be written as a fraction or a decimal. Convert a percent to a decimal To convert a percent to a decimal, divide by 100. A short way to divide by 100 is to move the decimal point two places to the left. 1. Drop the % sign. 2. Move the decimal point two places to the left. Remember: The decimal point in a whole number is on the right of the number. Consider the whole number nine. 9 = 9. To move the point two places to the left, place a zero on the left of nine. You will get .09 if you move the point two places to the left. Percent to Decimal Examples Example 1 Convert 5% to a decimal. Drop the percent sign. Move the decimal point two places to the left. 5% = .05 Answer: .05 or 0.05 Example 2 Convert 20% to a decimal. Drop the percent sign. Move the decimal point two places to the left. 20% = .20 Answer: .20 or 0.20 or .2 or 0.2 Example 3 Convert 100% to a decimal. Drop the percent sign. Move the decimal point two places to the left. 100% = 1.00 Answer: 1.00 or 1 Page 1 of 9 MAT 040: Basic Math Learning Unit 10: Handout Example 4 Convert 200% to a decimal. Drop the percent sign.
