	Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Interval notation is the notation in which permitted values for a variable are expressed as ranging over a a certain interval; "5 < x < 9" is an example of the application of interval notation.
		Intervals of type (1), (5), (7), (9) and (11) are called open intervals (because they are open sets) and intervals (2), (6), (8), (9), (10) and (11) closed intervals (because they are closed sets).
		Interval arithmetic, also called interval mathematics, interval analysis, and interval computation, was introduced by mathematicians in the 1950s and 1960s as an approach to putting bounds on rounding errors in mathematical computation.

	Interval scale (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		On interval measurement scales, one unit on the scale represents the same magnitude on the trait or characteristic being measured across the whole range of the scale.
		For example, if anxiety were measured on an interval scale, then a difference between a score of 10 and a score of 11 would represent the same difference in anxiety as would a difference between a score of 50 and a score of 51.
		Interval scales do not have a "true" zero point, however, and therefore it is not possible to make statements about how many times higher one score is than another.

	PlanetMath: interval
		Loosely speaking, an interval is a part of the real numbers that start at one number and stops at another number.
		In [1,2], an open interval is always called a segment, and a closed interval is called simply an interval.
		This is version 4 of interval, born on 2003-07-14, modified 2005-01-21.

	Intervals
		Intervals that are perfect have a certain sound that is variously described by musicians as "pure", "hollow" or "bare".
		But looking at those four intervals, if you ask yourself the question, "Is the top note in the major scale of the bottom note?", the only interval for which the answer is "yes" would be the one with the 'A' on top.
		Historically, the tritone was known as the "interval of the devil"; its position between the perfect 4th and perfect 5th made it quite difficult to sing in tune.

	Interval
		Intervals are a useful concept in the discussion of the degrees of a scale, the notes within triads and chords, for transposition and for harmony analysis.
		A major interval appears in the major scale of which the bottom note of the two is the key-note.
		Note that a minor interval does not necessarily appear in the minor scale of which the bottom note of the two is the key-note.

	INTLAB - INTerval LABoratory Version 5 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Interval vector and matrix operations are very fast in INTLAB; however, nonlinear computations and loops may slow down the system significantly due to interpretation overhead and extensive use of the operator concept.
		Given a complex interval midrad(a,r) by midpoint "a" and radius "r", current implementation of f(midrad(a,r)) calculates the midpoint of the result interval to be f(a), and calculates the radius of the result interval by formulas developed by N. Boersken (see INTLAB documentation).
		Therefore, for given input interval X and some x in X it is not necessarily f(x) in f(X), where f(x) follows the usual definition of the main part of the function.

	1.3.5.2. Confidence Limits for the Mean
		Interval estimates are often desirable because the estimate of the mean varies from sample to sample.
		Instead of a single estimate for the mean, a confidence interval generates a lower and upper limit for the mean.
		For example, for a 95% confidence interval, we go to the row identified by 95.000 in the first column and extract an interval of (9.25824, 9.26468) from the last two columns.

	Confidence Interval (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		If the researcher were to take 100 random samples with a 95% confidence interval for each sample, then he or she expects that for 95 of the 100 samples (95%), the range of values produced by the confidence interval procedure will include the true mean of the population.
		An alpha of.01 is a 99% Confidence Interval (note the larger red lines), which means only 1 line should not intersect in 5 runs (100%-1%=99%), and an alpha of.1 is a 90% Confidence Interval (note the smaller red lines), which means 10 lines should not intersect in 5 runs (100%-10%=90%).
		The width of the confidence interval increases as the confidence level increases, since with a greater width one is more likely to have included the true mean.

	Interval (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		To find the interval, count the lines or spaces that the two notes are on as well as all the lines or spaces in between.
		This unique interval, which cannot be spelled as a major, minor, or perfect interval, is considered unusually dissonant and unstable (tending to want to resolve to another interval) in Western Music.
		The inversion of an augmented interval is diminished and of a diminished interval is augmented.

	Data Types in SQL Statements
		The length of an INTERVAL is the same as the number of characters required to represent it as a string and is determined by the interval precision, leading precision and the seconds precision (where it applies).
		When an INTERVAL value is multiplied by a numeric value, the scale of the result is equal to that of the INTERVAL and the precision of the result is the leading precision of the INTERVAL increased by 1.
		The interval precision of the result is the combined interval precision of the two operands, e.g.

	aerobic interval training
		Because interval training is intense, it is a great method for improving both aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
		The accumulated oxygen deficit for bouts with rest intervals is the difference between the theoretical oxygen demand of the bouts and the actual oxygen used during both the bouts and the rest periods.
		Interval training is about setting a demanding intensity level and working at that level for the prescribed work/rest ratios until you cannot continue.

	Publications Related to Early Interval Work of R. E. Moore
		In [9], Moore states that he conceived of interval arithmetic and some of its ramifications in the spring of 1958.
		Reference [6] discusses interval valued functions, interval contractions, a metric topology for interval numbers, interval integrals, and contains an extensive discussion of Moore's use of interval analysis to bound the solution of ordinary differential equations.
		Under Moore's direction and influence, general purpose interval arithmetic became available for use on early computers (see [1]); and a program for bounding the solution of ordinary differential equations was produced (see [3], [10], [13], [14]).

		An interval is a range of numbers, for example, the interval between 2 and 3 contains all the numbers between and including 2 and 3.
		The width of an interval is a natural measure of the accuracy of an interval approximation.
		Fortunately, intervals and arithmetic on intervals can be implemented in existing computers using a pair of floating-point numbers--one for the lower bound, and one for the upper bound.

	Sample Size Calculator
		For example, if you use a confidence interval of 4 and 47% percent of your sample picks an answer you can be "sure" that if you had asked the question of the entire relevant population between 43% (47-4) and 51% (47+4) would have picked that answer.
		When you put the confidence level and the confidence interval together, you can say that you are 95% sure that the true percentage of the population is between 43% and 51%.
		The wider the confidence interval you are willing to accept, the more certain you can be that the whole population answers would be within that range.

	Statistics Glossary - Confidence Intervals
		A confidence interval gives an estimated range of values which is likely to include an unknown population parameter, the estimated range being calculated from a given set of sample data.
		A confidence interval for the difference between two means specifies a range of values within which the difference between the means of the two populations may lie.
		These intervals may be calculated by, for example, a producer who wishes to estimate the difference in mean daily output from two machines; a medical researcher who wishes to estimate the difference in mean response by patients who are receiving two different drugs; etc.

	Boost Interval Arithmetic Library
		Whenever possible, the interval result should be the smallest one able to satisfy the property (it is not really useful if the new functions always answer [-∞,+∞]).
		Another common reason to use interval arithmetic is when the computer doesn't produce exact results: by using intervals, it is possible to quantify the propagation of rounding errors.
		They use the checking policy to produce empty intervals when the input interval is strictly outside of the domain of the function.

	Interval Algebra: A review
		Given two intervals A = [a1,a2] and B = [b1,b2], though there are 3^4 = 81 relations between the four points, only 13 of these valid for ordered non-zero intervals.
		Interval algebra provides a good compromise between these, since it is non-quantitative and abstract - yet it is complete in the sign algebra of (-,0,+).
		It is also possible to extend interval algebra to provide some degree of description for relative size, symmetry and relative orientation.

	Font Size Intervals
		Even when legibility per se is not impaired, arbitrary or ill-conceived font size interval differences often interfere unacceptably with the accessibility, logical clarity, or aesthetics of documents.
		Neither the problem nor the solution are new: Netscape included it in its original implementation of size attributes on the now-deprecated FONT element, and the HTML heading sizes 1-6 have adapted to the user's base size since Mosaic.
		In the HTML font size interval system as implemented in mainstream browsers, if the user's medium has 16 pixels per em, then size 1 is 60%, or 10 pixels; however, if the user's medium has 12 pixels per em, then size 1 is 75%, or 9 pixels.
