  Sext - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sext is a fixed time of prayer of the Divine Office of the Roman Catholic Church.
In the 4th century the hour of Sext was widely established as a canonical hour.
Sext, like Terce and None, was composed at most of three psalms, of which the choice was fixed, the Deus in adjutorium, a hymn, a lesson (capitulum), a versicle, the Kyrie Eleison, and the customary concluding prayer and dismissal (xvii, cf.

 Sext
In the fourth century the hour of Sext was widely established as a canonical hour.
This number was adopted by the Rules of St. Benedict, Columbanus, St. Isidore, St. Fructuosus, and to a certain extent by the Roman Church.
We quote it here because it is almost the same as the Roman Liturgy; either the latter borrowed from St. Benedict, or St. Benedict was inspired by the Roman usage.

Traditional monastic offices that were recited at 9 a.m., "the third hour" (terce), 12 noon, "the sixth hour" (sext), and 3 p.m., "the ninth hour" (none).
The custom of daily prayer is evidenced by Acts 3:1, which records that Peter and John "were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, at three o'clock in the afternoon." Acts 10:9 also states that Peter went to pray at noon on the day when the men sent by Cornelius arrived.
Development of the full round of canonical hours-including matins and lauds, prime, terce, sext, none, vespers, and compline-has been dated from the late fifth century.

Wegwood lists the name Sexte as deriving from the Latin sextus, meaning “sixth”, and describes it as: “A two-rank Mixture, composed of a Twelfth or Tierce on one slider.
The interval between the two ranks is that of a sixth.” Sumner lists Sext it as “A stop having the twelfth and tierce of the sesquialtera but made with ranks of flute type.”

Wednesday Sext is the exact middle of the week's Hours.
Sext (12 noon to 3 o'clock) is the zenith of the day's combat, and Wednesday is the middle of the week's fight.
The Church and the individual soul both use this Hour to present all their most pressing needs, and to be more and more deeply rooted in their trust in God.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Chapter and Conventual Mass
Except in Advent, Lent and Paschal time, on the first day of the month not prevented by a double or semi-double, the conventual Mass is a Requiem for deceased members and benefactors of the community.
On doubles, semi-doubles Sundays, and during octaves, the conventual Mass is said after Terce, on simples and ferias after Sext, on ferias of Advent and Lent, on Vigils and Ember days after None.

 Umberto Eco's Name of the Rose, First: Sext
When Adso visits the abbey church for the first time, Eco wants us, as modern readers, to realize that this is a Romanesque church, and he does so by alluding to physical characterists that would distinguish it from a Gothic church.
At first glance, the two paragraphs at the opening of Sext, appear to be background information, the narrator's "innocent" attempt to place the church in historical context, a context of whom a contemporary of Adso's might easily identify, while simultaneously creating an accurate narrative image for the reader.
Eco is clearly associating Adso with the author of Revelation by portraying him as receiving the same vision at the door of the church.

In such case, Matins and Lauds may be said in the morning, with the Lesser Hours conveniently distributed throughout the day.

 John Cassian's Institutes, Book 3
And as with it at every moment they mingle suffrages and prayers, they spend the whole day in those offices which we celebrate at fixed times.
How throughout all the East the services of Tierce, Sext, and None are ended with only three Psalms and prayers each; and the reason why these spiritual offices are assigned more particularly to those hours.
For we can show that at the third hour the Holy Spirit, who had been of old promised by the prophets, descended in the first instance on the Apostles assembled together for prayer.

 If sExt = "jpg" or "jpeg"
Dear Mr Fitful of Thought How any if statement works in any of these languages is that the If part is entered if the statement can be said to be True.
Now of either of these statements is True then by our knowledge of Boolean arithmetic that True or False always returns True then the If statement is true and so the bit in the If statement is entered.
So if sExt did contain "jpg" then the above If statement would look like this when interpreted: If TRUE or FALSE then If eExt contained, say, "gif" then the statement would be resolved like this: If FALSE or FALSE then and the control which skip over the if/end if part.
