May I know how many months of bank statement i need for UK visit visa ? How much do i need to keep in the bank ( SDG 3000 to 5000) ?  I saw the requirement of visa which included the building society book . Must i provide or just the bank statement ?    I'm Myanmar citizen and working in SG . I'm planning to go UK 2020 Aug with my friend . I'm planning to prepare for the bank statement .
I am applying for a UK visa. Can I show 5 months worth of bank statements for the UK visa, or is 6 months a requirement, as its not mentioned on their website?  There are no appointment dates showing in April. Is there any time limit in which we have to book an appointment after paying the fee?
I was told that the following does not work:     Employees having children will be granted a day off.   However, this sounds better:     Having children, those employees will be granted a day off.   What is wrong with the first clause? Can I use two different cards with the same name in Commander? Installing 64-bit geoprocessing of ArcGIS for Desktop? I am trying to install 64-bit processing to ArcGIS 10.2, but the ESRI .  One similar question on this exchange  that shows an option to include this, but my setup installation program (which I downloaded) does not show this installation window, but instead goes straight to selecting features to install as shown below.  I can't find any other documentation for running 64-bit geoprocessing on ArcGIS version 10.2.  Can anyone show me how to do this? or is it best to just try to install the service pack 1 version of it? Avoiding IF ELSE due to variable been NULL Is "a total of 10 payments" singular or plural? A total of 10 payments were made.   OR     A total of 10 payments was made.   Which is correct? Or can both be correct? Proof of $a^n+b^n$ divisible by $a+b$ when $n$ is odd I read somewhere that     $(a^n - b^n)$         It is always divisible by $a-b$.   When $n$ is even it is also divisible by $a+b$.   When $n$ is odd it is not divisible by $a+b$.      and     $(a^n + b^n)$         It is never divisible by $a-b$.   When $n$ is odd it is divisible by $a+b$.   When $n$ is even it is not divisible by $a+b$.      I wonder what's the proof for this.  First postulate is clear. $(a-b)$ would or would not be a factor. Any light on others? By looking at an integral and bounding the error? I'm sorry if this seems a bit too basic, but I guess I'm just looking to confirm understanding here. I get the sense I'd have to do this in two steps, and I've started trying to grok correlation matrices, but it's just starting to seem really involved. I'm looking for a concise explanation (ideally with hints towards a pseudocode solution) of a good, ideally quick way to generate correlated random numbers.   Given two pseudorandom variables height and weight with known means and variances, and a given correlation, I think I'm basically trying to understand what this second step should look like:     height = gaussianPdf(height.mean, height.variance)    weight = gaussianPdf(correlated_mean(height.mean, correlation_coefficient),                          correlated_variance(height.variance,                          correlation_coefficient))    How do I calculate the correlated mean and variance? But I want to confirm that's really the relevant problem here.  Do I need to resort to matrix manipulation? Or do I have something else very wrong in my basic approach to this problem? How do I Sort a Multidimensional Array in PHP "Requires 50 reputation" to comment on deleted posts Is there any difference between Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous? Why log-transforming the data before performing principal component analysis? Im following a tutorial here:  to gain a better understanding of PCA.  The tutorial uses the Iris dataset and applies a log transform prior to PCA:     Notice that in the following code we apply a log transformation to the continuous variables as suggested by [1] and set center and scale equal to TRUE in the call to prcomp to standardize the variables prior to the application of PCA.   Could somebody explain to me in plain English why you first use the log function on the the first four columns of the Iris dataset. I understand it has something to do with making data  relative but am confused what's exactly the function of log, center and scale.  The reference [1] above is to Venables and Ripley, Modern applied statistics with S-PLUS, Section 11.1 that briefly says:     The data are physical measurements, so a sound initial strategy is to work on log scale. This has been done throughout. How to shop for a lens filter? What should I consider when shopping for a lens filter?    I see filters that range from $15 to $115 and more.  What are the differences between the $15 and the $115 filter?    I'm asking in the generic sense but if you need specifics, I'm looking to buy a UV filter and a polarizing filter for a Panasonic GF1 w/ 20mm pancake lens.  EDIT: I've read some of the other posts and some refer to multi-coating but doesn't explain what is this and why it matters.  What I've gathered from reading related posts is that price is generally the only indication of quality in the case of choosing a filter.  Is this right? Every time I think I have the curve modifier mastered, it throws me a another curve ball (no pun intended).  Why in  can I not get the lights to follow the spiral curve? When the modifier is activated, the lights are stretched and distorted along the curve.  I created the curve by converting it from a mesh (string of verts). Why does it not display like a normal Bezier? Is that related to my problem?  I am following all the "rules" that I am aware of, as detailed here: . The curve seems to run in the correct direction. The origin point is at the first point of the curve. The curve modifier on the lights is set to -Y which is the local orientation of the curve's direction.  What am I missing? I am a physics Master's student.  I have good grades, with CGPA above 9(/10)(However, all courses in my university are graded on a curve so the actual marks are significantly lower than 90%). This has been my marks throughout my undergraduate and graduate courses and I was happy because this was above average. Also, my summer projects in UG were usually computational and any difficulty I had in theoretical aspects I attributed it to my inexperience in advanced Physics.   However, recently I have started to work on pure theoretical project and while reading for the project I realized that I consistently miss some details from each topic. I understand the general idea, can re-derive most of the equations(with some effort) however when I discuss things with my professor or when I read further topics I realize that I have missed certain key-details. This is exactly similar to the case of me missing a few key questions in my exams and getting that 9 grade point instead of 10(or at-least I think so). I was not worried about this before but now I realize that there is some flaw in the way I study (but I do not know what).   Since I want to apply for Physics PhD I realized that I will need to have solid concepts and it would be best to correct my mistakes but I do not know how or even what could be the reason for my imperfect understanding.  Any direct suggestion would help or even certain general guidelines on what I can do.    Things I've tried recently -   1) I've started to written down almost everything I read. This is slightly laborious but is certainly helping. It also helps me to gloss over the things I read previously when I come back the next day.  2) I completely avoid smartphone when I'm library/study room so that I won't get distracted. Not sure if it helps me solve the above problem but certainly helps me study better in general.  3) I've tried to read the topics from several sources. The books I am reading is somewhat like a collection of research papers and hence does not have a exercises. So I though reading from various sources might help get better ideas but it's not really helping because most other sources are too high level as an introductory text. But this will probably help me in cases where it's practical to do this.  4) Somewhat similar to point (1)- I am trying reread, whenever I can, what I've done until that point. But not sure how much this will help me in filling the gaps.

Is there an easy way to add commas to an int or decimal field to make it readable?  For example, SQL Server outputs the column on the left, but for my own sanity, I need it to look like the one on the right:  2036150 -&gt; 2,036,150     ...or would I have to write some heinous   left(right(vandalized_data),6),3) + ',' + right(left(vandalized_data),6),3)   function?  The perfect thing would be commas in the display grid, then plain integers in the output. are two consecutive numbers relatively prime? I have a question.  I have been given this proof: "For any $n$ in the integers where $n&gt;2$, show there are at least $2$ elements in $U(n)$ that satisfy $x^2=1$."  I have gone through and actually proved this, (that the numbers are $1$ and $n-1$) but i didn't' know how to prove that $n-1$ is in fact in the set $U(n)$. Is it because two consecutive numbers are always relatively prime?
