I am using the vancouver.bst which conforms to the ICMJE (international committee of medical journal editors) How do I make the citations in the text appear in parentheses, e.g., (3), rather than in brackets [3]?
I'm using a  freely downloadable latex class file and the style is set to \bibliographystyle{ieeetr}. But when I cite something with \cite{} I get it inside ().   For example I get it as abc et al. (1) but what I want to get is abc et al. [1].   Please tell me how to get my citations inside [ ] ?
I installed Blender from official Ubuntu repository but its version is always behind the version available from the official Blender website.  I'm aware that I can launch the program within the downloaded folder, but i want to replace the install version with a new version downloaded from the website?   It must be present in the unity launcher.  I'm also aware of the available PPA's that are available, however I just want to install Blender manually.  Thanks in advance Does linear ordering need the Axiom of Choice? I have received an .rar which I wish to unpack as it contains something rather important to me that I need to really have now. However even though I can view the contents of the .rar archive in the Archive Manager, I am unable to extract it due to this error:    The archive should contain two folders within it, each though contain at least 10 audio files as well as a PDF file each (I don't know what the contents exactly should be except for there should be audio files in there, and the content I have described is what I can see from the Archive Manager's view). So the only thing I am left with except the error is one of the folders and one of the audio files, but it says it has 0 bytes in it.  So how exactly do I fix this problem? I am running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.1 with GNOME 3.20.  Information Update:  In reply to a comment requesting the output from the dpkg -l unrar unrar-free command:  Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name           Version      Architecture Description +++-==============-============-============-================================= un  unrar          &lt;none&gt;       &lt;none&gt;       (no description available) dpkg-query: no packages found matching unrar-free To better describe the above problem, whenever I start up my Ubuntu/Windows 10 Machine and select Ubuntu, whenever the machine tries to start the GNOME Desktop Environment, it says it started it successfully. however, I never get a graphical desktop environment to use. I can fix this by logging into tty3 and typing gnome-session but I don't really want to do that as, for some reason, that skips login. Can anyone help? I am trying to create Thiessen (Voronoi) polygons, based on points within a defined shapefile extent. The output should be inclusive to the feature.  The output I receive now is the rectangular area around the selected points.    Steps I am using: 1. select points of interest (inside and outside spatial extent) 2. set primary display field to FID (aka:ObjectID) 3. Environment… > Set 'Analysis Mask' to shapefile with feature (in this case, a watershed)  Now here is where the problem starts. I have a set of instructions for arc 9.3, but I am now operating on ArcGIS 10 (Spatial Analyst installed &amp; activated). Also, just to clarify, I did scour the inter-webs for some number of hours- Esri support, gis.SE, Professor Google...  ########  9.3.1 version: Spatial Analyst >> Distance >> Allocation - set 'Assign To' as point shapefile of selected data - set cell size  10.0 methods tried: Analysis >> Create Thiessen Polygons -- Many variations of selected features -- File locations, both inside and out of file geodatabase  I am open to any solution, using Arc 10.0 and/or python would be ideal.  The first image is an example.  The output does not need to be exact.  wiki: Is it possible to play FIFA 2015, 4v4 on 2 Consoles? I've the following situation: My friends and I, we're 8 in total, want to play Fifa 15 4v4. I know that the Playstation 4 just supports 4 controllers and thats why we think about a 2 console + 2 TV's setup, so 4 players per console.   So my question is: Is it possible or is there a game mode available were we could play such a setup?  Update: After I got the first answer I've to add that I know that the only way to play on 2 consoles would be through the psn online features. So we did not plan to play on Lan. We just want to sit in the same room with 2 consoles and play against each other over psn. I came across this formula in a list:  The number of ways of distributing $n$ identical objects among $r$ groups such that each group can have $0$ or more $(\le n)$ objects  I know that standard way of doing this is to solve the problem of distributing n identical objects and $(r-1)$ partitions among themselves which can be done in $C(n+r-1,r-1)$ ways.   But I am unable to prove to myself why it is not $(r+1)^n$.  Because each of the n objects has r+1 choices, either group1, group2,... group r or none at all. So I understand the concept of gravity, in that it's not actually a force, but more of a displacement in the spacetime grid. An object with a big enough mass will bend the spacetime, causing smaller objects to "attract" to it (not really, but good enough for what I am trying to figure out)   Ok so that makes sense, but what I am not understanding is, how come planets don't just get engulfed by the Sun? There must be something acting against the gravity for the planet to be a certain distance away from the sun. Am I not understanding this concept correctly? Suppose I am running a regression $Y \sim X$. Why by selecting top $k$ principle components of $X$, does the model retain its predictive power on $Y$?   I understand that from dimensionality-reduction/feature-selection point of view, if $v_1, v_2, ... v_k$ are the eigenvectors of covariance matrix of $X$ with top $k$ eigenvalues, then $Xv_1, Xv_2 ... Xv_k$ are top $k$ principal components with maximum variances. We can thereby reduce the number of features to $k$ and retain most of the predictive power, as I understand it.   But why do top $k$ components retain the predictive power on $Y$?   If we talk about a general OLS $Y \sim Z$, there is no reason to suggest that if feature $Z_i$ has maximum variance, then $Z_i$ has the most predictive power on $Y$.   Update after seeing comments: I guess I have seen tons of examples of using PCA for dimensionality reduction. I have been assuming that means the dimensions we are left with have the most predictive power. Otherwise what's the point of dimensionality reduction? I am just learning ArcGIS 10.2 and it was working well until I tried to use the Export to a Geodatabase (single) option for a dbs table I made. Since then, it seems I now get the same Script Error for import/export functions. However, I just tried to export to Geodatabase (multiple) and error did not pop up. I spoke with tech support and they could not help me so far. I really do not know much about GIS so it is hard for me to fix this problem and cannot proceed with some things. Interpretation of ROC curve Stepping up 3V to 5V Where should I put  tags in HTML markup? Stars and pins are retained when chat messages are moved! In the chat system, stars and pins are retained when moved to another room. This is probably a bug. Here a picture:  When a room owner pins a message, they can move it to another room, and they cannot unpin it. However when a starred message is moved to another room, the user can unstar it in the room it was moved to. Conversation source:  * is irrelevant and does not have to do with this bug report. Many thanks to . Q&A Identification of seldom man-made physical objects not being piece of art? Is SE Q&amp;A format relevant for "identification of seldom physical objects observed in real world"?  Questions like "I do not know function of this object (picture) - which purpose does it have?"  In many cases I suppose these question could have civil engineering or handcraft i.e. cultural/historical background. In second case "SE history" might be okay. For first case, I do not know. $\lim\limits_{n \to{+}\infty}{\sqrt[n]{n!}}$ is infinite What effect does the Barr body have, in relation to female Turner syndrome? Why do persons with  have  developmental abnormalities, when normal XX-females do not, even though they only have 1 active X chromosome? From what I know, one X-chromosome is inactivated into a Barr body in normal XX-females, but these obviously don't show the symptoms of Turner syndrome. What function does the inactive chromosome have? Increasing the size of the memory: not all files are built successfully I am trying to compile a large file which contains a tikz picture with more data points than tex can handle.  Following the questions  and  I set to increase the capacity of tex by changing the file texmf.cnf in my path /usr/local/texlive/2012. I included the line  main_memory = 10000000   and on terminal I run  sudo fmtutil-sys --all   The problem is that this memory is not enough, and numbers bigger than that don't finish the fmtutil run properly. I get the error   fmtutil: Error! Not all formats have been built successfully.   To give a better idea of where the problem is coming from, if I only include in the file texmf.cnf the lines  main_memory.latex = 15000000 main_memory.pdflatex = 15000000   then these are the files which are not properly built:  This is a summary of all `failed' messages: `pdftex -ini  -jobname=latex -progname=latex -translate-file=cp227.tcx *latex.ini' failed `pdftex -ini  -jobname=pdflatex -progname=pdflatex -translate-file=cp227.tcx *pdflatex.ini' failed   How can I increase the size of the memory beyond 10000000? Am I doing anything wrong?  (BTW, I am running texlive 2012 on a mac) "State-of-the-art" and "technology" Possessive form of "one of [a list]"?
