	archive: LDF pays back UDF in its own coin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Act, as it stands, would not have allowed the LDF to elect its four nominees because of the stipulation requiring the voter MLAs to give a declaration about their belief in God and temple worship.
		So, the brief discussion in the Assembly saw Ministers holding forth on the definition of a Hindu, with much hair-splitting on the wider connotations of the “way of life” that is Hinduism, which enables one born to the faith to repudiate God and temples and still remain a Hindu.
		Since the ldf has always had more number of Hindu MLAs, the best way for disqualifying them was a mandatory declaration affirming their faith in deities and temple rituals, which the communists just cannot give.

	LDF with two variates -The effect of correlation
		Signs of correlations are of crucial importance, and we will assume that the positive correlation coefficients mean that the intra-class correlation has the same sign as the correlation between the means of two classes.
		At the beginning of this section we have assumed that variates that are to be examined (whether to include them into LDF or not) show ''poor''performance as discriminators.
		For the positive correlations, we can further conclude that if we are to take a new feature with equal discriminating power (f=1), then all positive correlations are harmful; and for f=0, which means that the new feature has no discriminating power then all positive correlations are helpful (as well as negative).
