    Simulation illustrating the law of large numbers. Each frame, a coin that is red on one side and blue on the other is flipped, and a dot is added in the corresponding column. A pie chart shows the proportion of red and blue so far. Notice that while the proportion varies significantly at first, it approaches 50% as the number of trials increases.

    Eighth power. In arithmetic and algebra the eighth power of a number n is the result of multiplying eight instances of n together. So: n8 = n × n × n × n × n × n × n × n. Eighth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its seventh power, or the fourth power of a number by itself. The sequence of eighth powers of integers is:

  6. Hilbert's eighth problem - Wikipedia

    Hilbert's eighth problem is one of David Hilbert 's list of open mathematical problems posed in 1900. It concerns number theory, and in particular the Riemann hypothesis, [1] although it is also concerned with the Goldbach Conjecture. The problem as stated asked for more work on the distribution of primes and generalizations of Riemann ...

  7. Sign test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_test

    The sign test is a statistical method to test for consistent differences between pairs of observations, such as the weight of subjects before and after treatment. Given pairs of observations (such as weight pre- and post-treatment) for each subject, the sign test determines if one member of the pair (such as pre-treatment) tends to be greater than (or less than) the other member of the pair ...

    8 (six beats per bar, with each beat being an eighth note) and 12 8 (twelve beats per bar, with each beat being an eighth note; in practice, the eighth notes are typically put into four groups of three eighth notes. 12 8 is a compound time type of time signature). Many other time signatures exist, such as 3 8, 5 8, 5 4, 7 4, 9 8, and so on.

    Classification Meitei belongs to the Tibeto-Burman branch of the Sino-Tibetan languages. During the 19th and 20th centuries, different linguists tried to assign Meitei to various sub-groups. Early classifier George Abraham Grierson (1903–1924) put it in Kuki-Chin, Vegelin and Voegelin (1965) in Kuki-Chin-Naga, and Benedict (1972) in Kuki-Naga. Robbins Burling has suggested that Meitei ...
