In mathematics (including combinatorics, linear algebra, and dynamical systems), a linear recurrence with constant coefficients [1]: ch. 17 [2]: ch. 10 (also known as a linear recurrence relation or linear difference equation) sets equal to 0 a polynomial that is linear in the various iterates of a variable—that is, in the values of the elements of a sequence.
For example, a module may require functions of type a-> b, but it is more convenient to write functions of type a * c-> b where there is a fixed relationship between the objects of type a and c. A function of type c-> (a * c-> b)-> a-> b can factor out this commonality. This is an example of the adapter pattern. [citation needed]
The codewords in a linear block code are blocks of symbols that are encoded using more symbols than the original value to be sent. [2] A linear code of length n transmits blocks containing n symbols. For example, the [7,4,3] Hamming code is a linear binary code which represents 4-bit messages using 7-bit codewords. Two distinct codewords differ ...
Stages of change, according to the transtheoretical model. The transtheoretical model of behavior change is an integrative theory of therapy that assesses an individual's readiness to act on a new healthier behavior, and provides strategies, or processes of change to guide the individual. [1]
For example, Tomokazu Kishiki and colleagues performed a randomized controlled trial on surgical trainees to determine whether or not their participation in a goal-setting program would improve performance and testing scores; the addition of achievable goals appeared to be beneficial to the trainees.
