TOTAL DRAW [4 records]

Record 1 2022-01-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Commercial Fishing
CONT

Volumetric estimates of fish in holding bins(converted to weight) comprise a more accurate method for deriving total catch weight. To apply this technique, first calculate the weight capacity of the holding bin from its volume. If the bin is cubic or rectangular, multiply its length(L), width(W), and height(W) to derive volume … If the holding area is odd-shaped, draw a diagram that separates it into symmetrical portions, calculate volume for each portion, then add these volumes.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Card Games
  • Games of Chance
DEF

The decision not to draw any further cards, or hits.

CONT

Hitting or standing in Blackjack. The most common decision a player must make during the game is whether to draw another card to the hand("hit"), or stop at the current total("stand").

CONT

The most basic place to start is hitting and standing. ... If your hand is above 12 and the dealer shows a 4, 5, or 6, your best play is to stand.

CONT

Hitting against a 70% chance that you will bust [is unwise;] it may be advisable to seriously consider staying on 15 or 16 in the hopes the dealer has a hand that he/she must hit and may bust.

CONT

Generally, players make the mistake of staying when they should be hitting.

Record 3 2002-01-04

English

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Measurements and Analyses
  • Hydrology and Hydrography
  • Meteorology
CONT

... the determination of the "optimal period of production" means something different for Wicksell.... Thus, for a given r and earnings per period X(=V0) we can draw out a curve V0ert which can be conceived as an "isovalue" curve, i. e. a series of combinations of V0ert and t which yield the same present value V0. As time increases, total earnings increase so that V0ert increases. Thus, the isovalue curve is upward sloping and convex.

PHR

Isovalue curve of temperature.
