	Knot
		Knots placed at a distance of 47 feet 3 inches passed through a sailor's fingers, while another used a 28-second sandglass to time the operation.
		Knots have been the subject of interest both for their ancient origins, common use or their mathematical implications, see knot theory.
		For example, loop knots share the attribute of having some kind of an anchor point constructed on the standing end (such as a loop or overhand knot) into which the working end is easily hitched to using a round turn[?]).

	What does NURBS mean (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The knots are a list of degree+N-1 numbers, where N is the number of control points.
		In the preceding example of a satisfactory list of knots, the knot value 0 has multiplicity three, the knot value 1 has multiplicity one, the knot value 2 has multiplicity three, the knot value 3 has multiplicity one, the knot value 7 has multiplicity two, and the knot value 9 has multiplicity three.
		If a list of knots starts with a full multiplicity knot, is followed by simple knots, terminates with a full multiplicity knot, and the values are equally spaced, then the knots are called uniform.

		A rope containing a knot is weaker than an unknotted rope, because the loops of the knot impose uneven stresses upon the rope fibers.
		A knot that is used as part of a magic trick, a joke, or a puzzle.

	Untangling the Mathematics of Knots
		Explain that the way to show that two knots are the same is to take one of the knots and move the loops around until it is identical to the other one.
		The right- and left-handed trefoil knots are called mirror images of one another because (as students can verify with the aid of a mirror) you can make either one of them look exactly like the other by looking at it in a mirror.
		It is not always the case that a knot and its mirror image are not equivalent (as is the case with the trefoil knots).

		Decorative knotting, some for sale, by a man who calls himself the world's best (which may or may be true), and who thinks of himself as alone in his art (which is fortunately false).
		Because the knots for (say) square-rigged sailing ships, stevedores, steeplejacks, and draymen have been made obsolete by modern tecchnologies, the book is of immense historical value, even if these knots were not transferable to other applications.

		Knots that are not uniform are called non‑uniform.
		The N and U in NURBS stand for non‑uniform and indicate that the knots in a NURBS curve are permitted to be non-uniform.
		Since the number of knots is equal to (N+degree‑1), where N is the number of control points, adding knots also adds control points and removing knots removes control points.
