    In a 1994 study, 37 psychology students were asked to estimate how long it would take to finish their senior theses.The average estimate was 33.9 days.

    A time scale (or measure chain) is a closed subset of the real line. The common notation for a general time scale is T {\displaystyle \mathbb {T} } . The two most commonly encountered examples of time scales are the real numbers R {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} } and the discrete time scale h Z {\displaystyle h\mathbb {Z} } .
