I submitted a paper to some journal. Within less than two months it came for minor revision. Then I submitted the revised manuscript in 10 days. After two and half months the status got changed from awaiting reviewer scores to awaiting recommendation. Now it is almost 3 weeks. Still the status is same. How long I should wait for the final verdict? Thanking you.
What steps does a manuscript typically go through from submission to publication (or rejection) in a typical journal? How are these steps referred to, in particular by editorial systems, and how long do they each typically take?  Note that this question is about the typical situation and hence not about:   Journals with an atypical workflow, e.g. those that allow for an instantaneous reviewer–author interaction. Exceptional steps or rare occurrences such as withdrawal or .   This is a canonical question on this topic as per . Due to its nature, it is rather broad and not exemplary for a regular question on this site. Please feel free to improve this question.

Transparent text cut out of background Ignore python multiple return value Say I have a Python function that returns multiple values in a tuple:  def func():     return 1, 2   Is there a nice way to ignore one of the results rather than just assigning to a temporary variable?

Show $$\lim_{h \to \ 0} \frac{f(x + 2h) - 2f(x+h) + f(x)}{h^{2}} = f''(x)$$   Proof:  By definition:    $$f'(x) = \lim_{h \to \ 0} \frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}$$  Using this idea it would imply:   $$1)\ \ f''(x) = \lim_{h \to \ 0} \frac{f'(x + h) - f'(x)}{h}$$  As such it is required that I find an expression for $f'(x+h)$. This is where I'm not sure if the step I took is legitimate.  An expression for $f'(x + h)$ is:  $$f'(x+h) =  \lim_{h \to \ 0} \frac{f(x + 2h) - f(x + h)}{h}$$  Combining this with the definition of $f'(x)$ and inserting it into 1) you arrive at: $$\lim_{h \to \ 0} \frac{f(x + 2h) - 2f(x+h) + f(x)}{h^{2}} = f''(x)$$   As required.    Concern: I feel a discomfort with this solution. Even though "mechanically" it worked out, if I am taking the limit as $h \rightarrow 0$ that would mean $x + 2h$ and $x + h$ both go to $x$. But I am attempting to use the idea that $x +2h$ goes to $x + h$. Perhaps it is a notation idea that I need to communicate better, but I feel it is larger than just that.

A book in which every species on earth was rendered intelligent The 'blurb' on the back of the book was that something had boosted the intelligence of every creature on earth, to the point that at least some animals were on par with humans. I'm not sure if humans were similarly enhanced or just animals. I'm not sure whether it was done by aliens, or a side effect of something humans did, or what.   This book was on the shelves in the mid/late 1980's, so it's nothing more recent than that. LINQ Select Distinct with Anonymous Types So I have a collection of objects.  The exact type isn't important.  From it I want to extract all the unique pairs of a pair of particular properties, thusly:  myObjectCollection.Select(item=&gt;new                                 {                                      Alpha = item.propOne,                                      Bravo = item.propTwo                                 }                  ).Distinct();   So my question is:  Will Distinct in this case use the default object equals (which will be useless to me, since each object is new) or can it be told to do a different equals (in this case, equal values of Alpha and Bravo => equal instances)?  Is there any way to achieve that result, if this doesn't do it? How to calculate 95% CI for cumulative incidence rate using R?
