A mean value is only valid for the exact series of measurements that it was calculated from. When adding one or more measurements to the series, the mean value needs to be calculated again and probably result in a similar but not the same mean value. The reason for this is the fact that the final mean value can only be calculated from an infinite number of measurements but this is apparently impossible to do.
The following table provides a list of well-known german term and their english translation:
Imagine you intend to give threaded programming in perl a try. You do not want to update the system-wide perl installation because many perl modules are not thread-safe. A private perl installation is the only viable solution. After unpacking the perl distribution and changing into the newly created directory executethe following commands:
Subversion supports some keywords which it is able to substitute in a versioned file though there are two things you need to do:
The property svn:ignore may contain new-line separated patterns which describe filenames to ignore for repository actions. Specifying a single pattern is rather straight forward.
Binary packages provide an excellent method to distribute packages among several hosts or have a downgrade path in case a package update fails.
Utilities like rsync and cvs accept an environment variable to contain a command which allows logging in to a remote system before executing the desired action. The result seemingly causes the action to be executed locally although it is actually tunnelled through the specified program. Formerly rsh was used which contains some serious design flaws therefore ssh was designed to replace it. Refer to notes RSync over SSH and CVS over SSH for details how to use ssh with these utilities.
The most common use of the SSH client configuration in ~/.ssh/config is the definition of aliases for host with special requiements.
A typical emerge rsync only works if an intermediate firewall allows the appropriate packets to pass through. Though chances are that you are able to work around that.
