  2. Classification of discontinuities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of...

    The term removable discontinuity is sometimes broadened to include a removable singularity, in which the limits in both directions exist and are equal, while the function is undefined at the point . [a] This use is an abuse of terminology because continuity and discontinuity of a function are concepts defined only for points in the function's ...

  3. Continuous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_function

    This notion of continuity is the same as topological continuity when the partially ordered sets are given the Scott topology. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] In category theory , a functor F : C → D {\displaystyle F:{\mathcal {C}}\to {\mathcal {D}}} between two categories is called continuous if it commutes with small limits .

  4. Regression discontinuity design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_discontinuity...

    For example, suppose the treatment is passing an exam, where a grade of 50% is required. In this case, this example is a valid regression discontinuity design so long as grades are somewhat random, due either to the randomness of grading or randomness of student performance.

  5. Developmental psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developmental_psychology

    An example of a non-Western model for development stages is the Indian model, focusing a large amount of its psychological research on morality and interpersonal progress. The developmental stages in Indian models are founded by Hinduism, which primarily teaches stages of life in the process of someone discovering their fate or Dharma . [ 153 ]

  6. Continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity

    Continuity editing, a form of film editing that combines closely related shots into a sequence highlighting plot points or consistencies Continuity (fiction) , consistency of plot elements, such as characterization, location, and costuming, within a work of fiction (this is a mass noun)

  7. Oscillation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillation_(mathematics)

    For example, in the classification of discontinuities: in a removable discontinuity, the distance that the value of the function is off by is the oscillation; in a jump discontinuity, the size of the jump is the oscillation (assuming that the value at the point lies between these limits from the two sides);

  8. Discontinuities of monotone functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuities_of...

    Let be a real-valued monotone function defined on an interval. Then the set of discontinuities of the first kind is at most countable.. One can prove [5] [3] that all points of discontinuity of a monotone real-valued function defined on an interval are jump discontinuities and hence, by our definition, of the first kind.

  9. Smoothness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothness

    For example, reflections in a car body will not appear smooth unless the body has continuity. [ citation needed ] A rounded rectangle (with ninety degree circular arcs at the four corners) has G 1 {\displaystyle G^{1}} continuity, but does not have G 2 {\displaystyle G^{2}} continuity.
