Can someone please give me a simple example(I'm not a math professional) of a categorical morphism that is not a function?
I have encountered a statement in Lang's Algebra (Revised Third Edition, page 53) concerning morphisms of objects that seems strange to me: "In practice, in this book we shall see that most of our morphisms are actually mappings, or closely related to mappings."  I have always been under the impression that the terms 'mapping' and 'morphism' are synonymous in the context of categories. Perhaps it is just the case that Lang defines the two in a way that they disagree, but I can't find such an instance. Are they in fact different? If so, what is an example of a morphism that is not a mapping?
Disable all software installation Stupidly, I had been using a condition like this as part of a script:  if [ $(ls FOO* 2&gt; /dev/null) ] # if files named "FOO*" were downloaded  then     echo "Files found"      # ... process and email results else     echo "Not found"     # ... email warning that no files were found (against expectations) fi   That works for zero and one files named FOO*, but fails if there are more than one. From logs I found several different error messages stemming from this:  [: FOO_20131107_082920: unary operator expected [: FOO_20131108_070203: binary operator expected [: too many arguments   My question is: what is the correct way to check, in a Bash if condition, whether one or more files whose name begins with FOO exist?  GNU bash, version 4.2.25(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) The total number of locks exceeds the lock table size On August 5, 41 days ago, I submitted an application for a UK visitor visa. This is the third time I have applied. The only notice I have received so far says this: "Unfortunately, the processing of your application has not been straightforward. This means that we will be unable to make a decision within our published customer service standards." What should I do? What can a wizard take instead of a familiar at 1st level? The familiar is brilliant feature for a wizard, but not for a prestige multiclassing one. Such a wizard stops upgrading his familiar once getting off the main road. So if he still wants to utilize his familiar, he should take the obtain familiar feat, but this would made the basic familiar feature redundant.  So what options can a wizard take instead of gaining a familiar at 1st level? Does Moore's law apply to quantum computing? Plain and simple. Does  apply to quantum computing, or is it similar but with the numbers adjusted (ex. triples every 2 years). Also, if Moore's law doesn't apply, why do qubits change it? Polar form to cartesian Let $\Gamma$ be a circle that passes through the origin. Show that we can find real numbers $s$ and $t$ such that $\Gamma$ is the graph of $r = 2s \cos (\theta + t).$  I know this has to be converted to a cartesian equation, but how do I do this, and what do I do after?  Thanks set session - custom variable to store user id I want to store user id in custom session variable and use it (read) in trigger procedures to authorize user actions. I found something like this:  set session "myapp.user" = '12345'; ... SELECT current_setting('myapp.user');   and it seems to work - I thought that "myapp.user" should be declared in .conf file but it seems that I can create session variables on the fly (I didn't change .conf file at all).  Is there any disadvantage of doing like this? Guess the formula for $\sum\frac 1{(4n-3)(4n+1)}$ and prove by induction It is quite straightforward to find the fundamental solutions for a given Pell's equation when $d$ is small. But I am unable to solve this equation, as I'm unable to find the fundamental solutions:  Solve: $x^2-29y^2=1$ and $x^2-29y^2=-1$ with $y\not=0$.  Could you please guide me through the solution Below is my code to create the component dynamically - The component is "ui:inputselect"  $A.createComponent(             RecoveryLineItem.Attributes[i].name,{                 "class" : "slds-input ",                 "aura:id" : 'ExampleId',                 "label" : RecoveryLineItem.Attributes[i].label,                 "multiple" : RecoveryLineItem.Attributes[i].multiple             }, ....   ..  console.log(component.find('ExampleId').get("v.value"))    Or console.log(component.find('ExampleId'))  is Giving as 'Undefined"  How to access the aura:id of the dynamically created components?

When I'm editing a stack snippet, I often want to copy code from the original question into the snippet. But while the snippet editor is on display, there's no way to access the question, other than opening another tab/window. What I often do instead is copy all the code in the question to the clipboard, open the snippet editor, then paste it all in and revise it to what I want. But when the original code is poorly designed, that ends up being more work than just copying the bits and pieces that I want.  There could be a "View Question" button that pops up the question over the snippet editor and allows copying. Or maybe the Snippet Editor could be draggable and resizable, so you can reveal the question and copy from it; but this would require that it not be purely modal. Conditional formatting of an entire row based on multiple cells I'm trying to make a conditional formatting rule in Google Spreadsheet that would highlight a row green based on text in multiple cells.   If cells L2, M2, and N2 = APPROVED; and cell O2 = X; then row 2 = highlighted green. How can author deal with late reviews? Another problem I personally struggle with in peer-review publication process is the situation when review takes really, really, really long. The precise definition of "long" is probably very area-specific: for example a paper in Maths will probably took longer to review than one in Physics. Many well-established journals and major publishers, sadly, prefer not to specify the "rules of the game" precisely, particularly how long the review process should normally take. Fortunately, I quite often serve as a referee with the very same journals and know the amount of time I am given to write a review. Unfortunately, when I am an author, I do not observe these deadlines to be always met. For example, a notable U.S. publisher would ask a reviewer to send a review in 2 months; but in practice a first review of my paper once took as long as 8 months.  As a rule of thumb, I usually start writing to editors with questions about "the status of my paper" in X+1 months time, when X is a deadline time for a reviewer to submit a review. This strategy is not particularly successful &mdash; what I usually get is a recommendation to be more patient. Since there is no "official" deadline time announced, there is no formal ground for complaints here.  Of course, such delays lead to a whole bunch of funny situations, particularly if a preprint is put online (e.g., on arXiv) and the results are presented in some conferences. Follow-ups with no official paper to cite, grant applications in which you can not justify by a solid publication, good research but bad bibliometrics or CV, to name just a few.   Could you recommend an efficient way to deal with this problem? Where does gravitational waves' energy go? I lost a couple hundred lines of a Vim plugin I wrote and continue back up every so often because I extracted a tar file containing an older version. I decided not to use source control management when I wrote the plugin, since I only update it periodically.  Why doesn't tar ask before overwriting existing files by default? I'm guessing that there's some rationale behind why the default behavior is to overwrite files silently, since we usually want safety over speed and convenience. For example, we usually use #ifdef NDEBUG, not #ifdef DEBUG; similarly, I would expect tar ask me before overwriting any files, and for it to have some flag which I can use to tell it to overwrite files without asking me. Also, how can make it so that tar does ask me by default, without me having to give it any flags? I'm fine with using tools other than tar, if they support this safer default behavior.  Thank you for your time! Using package nomencl I updated some entries in the  at C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc.  As a test, I decided to make Google point to 127.0.0.1.  # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # #      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server #       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host  127.0.0.1       localhost ::1             localhost 127.0.0.1       google.com   This works fine on Windows Vista, but not on Widows 7. When I type google.com into my browser, it goes directly to Google's website.  I am not using a proxy server, and I think there might be some temporary DNS settings that need to be flushed, but I'm not sure.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
