I recently asked a question on SO to which the combination of two separate answers should be the accepted answer, however each answer by itself is not completely really correct.  I edited my original question to make it a little more specific to the scenario that was causing me a problem.  Once I did this and started testing out users suggestions I discovered that a combination of answers actually solves the issue at hand.  Is there any way that this is supposed to be handled to provide an accepted answer?
I just asked my first question on stackoverflow and I'm really impressed that my question seems to be answered sufficiently already! See:    The issue I have is that the last two answers combined would provide the most complete answer. What's the proper way to go about combining them, marking the question answered, and giving credit where credit is due?  Thanks big time guys for saving us all from experts exchange hell!  Edit: Wow, 5 responses in 5 minutes. I think what makes the most sense is that I create my own answer out of the two. I don't think the second part of my question was answered though.  What is the proper way to give credit to the 2 answers that I'm combining? Is an upvote for each sufficient?

Proof that if continuous function on $[0, 2]$ and $f(0) = f(2)$, then for some $x: f(x) = f(x - 1)$ Can a package overwrite the original commands in Latex? An example:  Without the amsmath package:   The equation environment numbers the equation automatically. The align environment cannot be executed.   With the amsmath package:   align and equation work seamlessly in numbering equations: I can use equation to write my first two equations, and align to write my third equation, and Latex will still number them correctly.   My questions are:   Is the code for the command equation after loading the amsmath package still the same as it was before loading the package? Moreover, if this is the case, then, in general, can loading different packages cause conflicts? And how do we avoid it?

How to study/prepare for the Salesforce Developer Certification I am fairly new to Force.com development (less than a year). I did not learn it from the ground up. So I think it will be good to study for the developer exam to strengthen my basics and improve my overall knowledge of Force.com + it will be great to have this certification.  Now it's surprising that there is not a lot of great information on the web about how to go about obtaining this certification. Most other major certifications have dedicated study guide books available but there are few for Force.com and I don't think any of them are official.   The official page has little information. The Study guide gives a broad description of the topics in the test.   I see a lot of the esteemed members are here certified developers. I think if you guys could give us a little information, hints/tips and some advice on how to prepare for this exam, it will really be of great help. Also is DEV401 required/helpful?  Also if we could get recommendations for great resources(books, online training etc) and practice tests it will be awesome. I was just wondering since i have the 12.04 lts ubuntu edition if it's possible to upgrade it to 13.04 or even 14.04 after it gets released without losing any of my files and installed apps?  That's actually the main reason i chose the LTS version because i didn't know if i had to re-install all my apps every time a new ubuntu version gets released. Reading order for Dragonlance? Prove that the only prime triple is 3, 5, 7 Prove that the only prime triple is $3,5,7$.  I tried proving using this method: Multiplication of $3$ jumps back and forth between being an even and an odd number. Thus goes from odd to odd over an interval max size 6, and likewise from even to even. In either case these will have the following types: (even - odd - even - odd - even - odd) and (odd - even - odd - even - odd - even), with 3 being a multiple of the first instance in the combinations. In the both combinations, the first and fourth would be divisible by three, leaving only two possible primes left (two odd numbers). Thus the only triple prime can be a combination where three is considered a prime....  However, is this a formal proof? can anybody tell me how to do a proof for this questions?

There seems to be a bit of a gap between The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. While we know the outcomes from The Hobbit to Lord of the Rings, we don't know what happened between them. Did Tolkien ever novelize this?  Connecting the two movies together, I've pieced the following sub-plots:   Saruman becomes corrupted by peering into the Palantír of Orthanc at some point after The Hobbit Gollum gets captured by Sauron's army Legolas leaves his homeland, in search of a ranger of some importance Tauriel is banished from her homeland Bilbo returns to the Shire, and finally relinquishes the one ring on his 111th birthday to Frodo   What doesn't seemed joined by the books or the two trilogy films:   How did a powerful white wizard like Saruman become enchanted/corrupted by Sauron What was Gollum doing before he was captured Where was Thranduil during the events of Lord of the Rings What happened to Tauriel during Lord of the Rings What happened to the remaining company of dwarves after The Hobbit Who now resides within Erebor What happened to Radagast during Lord of the Rings #1115 - Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4' When I Import Mysql from local server to web ser it is showng me error 1115 - Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4' in Creating wordpress wp_comment table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS  `wp_commentmeta` ( // // ) ENGINE = INNODB DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8mb4 AUTO_INCREMENT =1;  #1115 - Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4'  My mysql version is Version information: 4.0.4, latest stable version: 4.4.10 (local version)  Version information: 4.0.10.7, latest stable version: 4.4.10( server version)  Please help me to solve out the error Does a correlation matrix of two variables always have the same eigenvectors? I perform Principal Component Analysis using two variables that are standardized. This is done by applying a SVD on the correlation matrix of the concerned variates. However, the SVD gives me the same eigenvector (weights) irrespective of what the two variables are. It's always [.70710678, .70710678]. I find this strange. Of course, the eigenvalues differ.  My question is: How to interpret this?    PS. I wanted to conduct a total least squares regression on two variables. My statistical programme does not provide TLS, but TLS luckily equals Principal Component Analysis, as far as I know. Hence my question. The question is not about TLS directly, but why I get the same eigenvectors irrespective of which variables I use (as long as they are exactly 2).
