I am planning on just traveling to many different places, I know that I'm allowed to stay in certain places for as long as 3 months, but would they allow me to stay in Seoul for 3 months, without a flight returning home?   The thing is that I'm not sure if I will be going straight back to Canada (most likely not) after my visit in Korea or continue onwards to other places.
I've been to South Korea a few times already and always enjoy it but I've always had an onward ticket before.  Now I need to fly home from a trip that's lasted over a year, but I still want to take my time and keep my options open.  There's a good choice of cheap flights from Istanbul to Seoul and from Seoul I can't decide yet whether to fly straight home or take a ferry to China, hitchhike to Guangzhou, and get a cheap flight home from there.  I can't really just buy the China-Australia flight now because I'm not sure yet whether I'll be able to get the Chinese visa easily enough or how long my remaining money will last.  I know Korea, like most countries, has rules saying you need an onward ticket, but in my experience many countries never try to verify that you have this ticket unless you fit some profile. So in this instance I would find first-hand knowlegde much more informative that pointers to a government website.  In practice does South Korea admit tourists with one-way tickets?
A Particular Two-Variable System in a Group Suppose $a$ and $b$ are elements of a group $G$. If $a^{-1}b^{2}a=b^{3}$ and $b^{-1}a^{2}b=a^{3}$, prove $a=e=b$.   I've been trying to prove but still inconclusive. Please prove to me.  Thanks very much for proof. Getting all the combinations in an array How do I know if I'm working on a Virtual Machine or not? Is there a way to know if the Windows machine I'm working on is virtual or physical? (I'm connecting with RDP to the machine. If it's a virtual machine it is working and handled by VMWare). What's the Pythonic way to combine two sequences into a dictionary? Is there a more concise way of doing this in Python?:  def toDict(keys, values):   d = dict()   for k,v in zip(keys, values):     d[k] = v    return d Is a sentence always grammatically incorrect if it has no verb? Is the following grammatically correct? My friend says the second sentence is grammatically incorrect, but couldn't explain why.     I have always been fascinated by statistics. The different ways in   which you could look at data and infer knowledge from it. Show that $A\in\mathbb{C}_n$ is normal $\iff$ $tr(A*A) = \sum_{i = 1}^n|\lambda_i|^2$, where $\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n$ are the eigenvalues of $A$. CLI path to ftp network connection I've setup a connectio to an FTP server in Nautilus / Nemo / Caja, the file manager. Now I can browse the contents via this file manager.  How can I browse these files via the command line? What is the path to this network connection? Is this possible, is this a system connection, or specific to the file manager, and do I have to setup a separate FTP connection to do that? If I open this connection in Caja, I see it in Nemo as well, so it seems like a system connection. How do I install a .tar.gz (or .tar.bz2) file? How to add a custom icon or symbol to a flag link? I'm working on a 'sample request' implementation for a commerce site using , , sessions and a little custom code.  I'd like to add an icon or a symbol to let people know that an item they are viewing has been flagged.  I'm not sure exactly how to approach this, I can imagine perhaps adding a conditional field that displays an image or check box that is then changed by  or ajax, or perhaps something more complicated in JavaScript?  It could really be as simple as adding a checkbox that is checked or unchecked as the flag link is clicked or maybe even changing the css/html on click to be identified as marked.   Anyway, grateful for any advice here. Bind an element to two sources I currently have two text boxes which accept any number. I have a text block that takes the two numbers entered and calculates the average.   I was wondering if there was a way I could bind this text block to both text boxes and utilize a custom converter to calculate the average? I currently am catching the text changed events on both text boxes and calculating the average that way, but I am under the assumption data binding would be more efficient and easier. Matrix doesn't shrink when put in fraction. What is C# analog of C++ std::pair? I'm interested: What is C#'s analog of std::pair in C++? I found System.Web.UI.Pair class, but I'd prefer something template-based.  Thank you! I have been facing hard time understanding meaning of "random sample" as well as "iid random variable". I tried to find out the meaning from several sources, but just got more and more confused. I am posting here what I tried and got to know:  Degroot's Probability &amp; Statistics says:     Random Samples / i.i.d. / Sample Size : Consider a given probability distribution on the real line that can be represented by either a p.f. or a p.d.f. $f$. It is said that $n$ random variables $X_1 , . . . , X_n$ form a random sample from this distribution if these random variables are independent and the marginal p.f. or p.d.f. of each of them is $f$. Such random variables are also said to be independent and identically distributed, abbreviated i.i.d. We refer to the number n of random variables as the sample size.   But one of the other statistics book I have says:       In a Random Sampling, we guarantee that every individual unit in the population gets an equal chance(probability) of being selected.   So, I have a feeling that i.i.d.s are elements that construct random sample, and the procedure to have random sample is random sampling. Am I right?   P.S.: I am very confused about this topic, so I will appreciate elaborate reply. Thanks. i know that|$S_n$|=$n!$ and |$A_n$|= $\frac{n!}{2}$ but i'm not sure where to go from there. Thanks. I need to end my visa waiver period when leaving States to Canada so that I don't exceed the period of 90 days. But form I-94 is no longer a physical card, it's only online.  How do I know or ensure that it will be terminated and will not continue counting the days once I leave to Canada? Laurent series expansion There are two directories shown by 'ls'.  Normally directories anywhere are blue on black background.  But the first one is blue on green and impossible to read.  Why is this?  How to make it blue on black, or at least something light on something dark?  This is on Ubuntu 12.04, using bash in Gnome Terminal.  In Konsole, the blue is slightly darker, and possible to read, though could be way better. Recently, I am trying to create 3D models for my own game project. However, when I do some researches on game models, I come up with the term - game-ready models and I could not find any clear definition online. Could anyone tell me about what exactly is game-ready models and how to know if my 3D models (created by Blender mainly) is suitable for games.  From what I know by far, quad topology is preferred in Blender. However, for most of the game engine, triangle topology is preferred (Please correct me if I am wrong). Does it mean I have to manually change the models in Blender from quad topology to triangle topology before importing to the game engine?  Thanks for any helps. Why are there no line numbers in the code listings? Would it make discussing code easier if you could simply refer to a particular line or range, or am I wrong? Light fixture with a switch that has an outlet I hope this explains it better: in this room there is a switch with one set of wires and only the black one went through the hole in it, and another black one in the other hole, and is hooked to the outlet by being wrapped around the screw terminals. The ground is cut short and not grounded.  Now on to the outlet: the wire from the switch is connected to the top screw - but it's on the side that says "white".   There are two more sets of wires that connect to the outlet as follows:   the two black ones are on the the other screw terminal on the bottom (one on the "white" side)  the grounds are grounded to the screw terminal below that  the white ones are connected by the one from the switch to the bottom (black side), with one of the white ones from the other set on the screw terminal, and the one from the other cable is on the top screw terminal on the "white" side.   Now to the light: there are the black and white that come out of the box, and that is the set that has the ground cut short.  The original light fixture was a single 660w/250v rated socket.  The one my friend put up was a fixture with two 660w /250v sockets.  At the light only black and white connected, not ground... It worked then made noise and this is where I'm at.  When I wire test them, the black one from the switch and the white ones from either sets nothing...  but all the other ones light up.....!
