To do this, the algorithm multiplies your scores, then takes the nth root, where "n" is the
number
of questions.
Because s, which is the
number
of questions in this sample, is only 2, we have: match percentage equals the square root of 98 percent times 91 percent.
After adding a little correction for margin of error, in the case where we have a small
number
of questions, like we do in this example, we're good to go.
You can also multiply the whole matrix by a number, called a scalar.
Just multiply every entry by that
number.
Multiply the first
number
in the row by the first
number
in the column: 1 times 2 is 2. Now do the next ones: 3 times 3 is 9. Now add them up: 2 plus 9 is 11.

number
in the top-left position so that it matches up with the rows and columns we used to get it.

of rows in the second matrix.

Number
nine is the United States of America, with 320 million people.
Corals are born in a
number

For instance, how would you go about counting the
number
of people in a room?
Now, line 2 demarks the start of loop, a sequence of steps that will repeat some
number
of times.
For each of these two people, we then increment n by 1. So, in the first trip through the loop, we update n from zero to 1, on the second trip through that same loop, we update n from 1 to 2. And so, by this algorithm's end, n is 2, which indeed matches the
number
of people in the room.
This time, though, line 3 doesn't execute at all since there isn't a person in the room, and so, n remains zero, which indeed matches the
number
of people in the room.
For that one pair of people, we then increment n by 2. And so, by this algorithm's end, n is 2, which indeed matches the
number
of people in the room.
As before, line 3 doesn't execute at all since there aren't any pairs of people in the room, and so, n remains zero, which indeed matches the
number
of people in the room.
So now, whether there's 1 or 3 or any odd
number
of people in the room, this algorithm will now count them.

In fact, the ratio between the two, the circumference divided by the diameter, will always be the same number, no matter how big or small the circle gets.
Historians aren't sure when or how this
number
was first discovered, but it's been known in some form for almost 4,000 years.
You see, the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter is what's known as an irrational number, one that can never be expressed as a ratio of two whole numbers.
That's why, instead of trying to write out an infinite
number
of digits every time, we just refer to it using the Greek letter pi.
Scientists have even used pi to prove the illusive notion that light functions as both a particle and an electromagnetic wave, and, perhaps most impressively, to calculate the density of our entire universe, which, by the way, still has infinitely less stuff in it than the total
number
of digits in pi.
The bottom
number
tells us what kind of note is to be used as the basic unit for the beat.
Notice that even though the
number
of notes in each bar has changed, the total
