Trivial (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In mathematics, the term trivial is frequently used for objects (for examples, groups or topological spaces) that have a very simple structure. A common joke in the mathematical community is to say that "trivial" is synonymous with "proved"—that is, any theorem can be considered "trivial" once it is known to be true. At the end of the explanation, the second mathematician agrees that the theorem is trivial. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Trivial_(mathematics)   (434 words)

Trivial Pursuit Unhinged for Xbox Review - Xbox Trivial Pursuit Unhinged Review The big missed opportunity in Trivial Pursuit Unhinged is in the multimedia question area, which is pretty limited in Unhinged to either tiny still images with lousy compression or short, tiny video clips with even worse compression. Trivial Pursuit Unhinged tries to add a touch of glamour by having a different celebrity host read the question for each category. If you want a multimedia Trivial Pursuit experience, pay a few bucks more for the Trivial Pursuit DVD Pop Culture Game, which is more dynamic, makes better use of the format, and, since it's a standard DVD, will still play on your PS2 or Xbox. www.gamespot.com /xbox/puzzle/trivialpursuitunhinged/review.html   (1179 words)

GameSpy: Trivial Pursuit Unhinged Review Trivial Pursuit has been around for twenty years now, so I guess it's here for good.

Trivia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The first known usage of the word "trivial" in Modern English is from 1589; it was used with a sense identical to that of triviālis. Shortly after that trivial is recorded in the sense most familiar to us: "of little importance or significance." Gradually, the word trivia came to be applied for any information that is of fleeting importance and of general interest. The word was popularized in its current meaning in the 1960s by Columbia University students Ed Goodgold and Dan Carlinsky, who created the earliest inter-collegiate quizzes that tested culturally important and unimportant facts, which they dubbed "trivia contests". en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Trivial   (882 words)

Description of Trivial Merge Algorithm   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10) This helps to ensure both (a) that the elements in question are locked for an extremely short period of time (since the merges are trivial, they are fully automatic and require no user intervention), and (b) some level of testing has gone on, since the exact configuration is currently on the submit branch. In the case of merges both to and from a version, the only way to be sure that the merge is trivial is to determine the order of the merges. The meat of any trivial merge detection algorithm is determining whether a given version is an ancestor of another version. www.paulandlesley.org /clearcase/t_merge.html   (1406 words)

TRIVIAL PURSUIT History - Invention of TRIVIAL PURSUIT The origins of the TRIVIAL PURSUIT® game can be traced back to a blustery day in Montreal, December 15, 1979, when two friends, Scott Abbott, sports editor with the Canadian Press and Chris Haney, photo editor for the Montreal Gazette engaged in a friendly argument over who was the better game player. The U.S. company agreed to manufacture and sell Trivial Pursuit in the United States and hired a PR consultant who launched an unusual direct mail promotion to 1,800 of the top buyers attending the 1983 New York Toy Fair and to Hollywood stars. Trivial Pursuit is a party in a box, people talking to people, a revolt against television. www.ideafinder.com /history/inventions/trivialpursuit.htm   (1761 words)

Science Fiction Game Reviews: Star Wars Trivial Pursuit Each space on the board corresponds to one of the categories, and there are also six "category headquarters." The object of the game is to visit each of the headquarters spaces and correctly answer an appropriate trivia question. The Star Wars version of Trivial Pursuit is played the same way as the regular game, but in this case all the trivia questions relate to the first three movies in the Star Wars film franchise. Overall Star Wars Trivial Pursuit is fun to play, and it will definitely give Star Wars fans a chance to strut their stuff. www.scifi.com /sfw/issue76/games.html   (621 words)

freshmeat.net: freshmeat - freshmeat's Stance on "Trivial" Software my program could be considered somewhat trivial at this point; I think part of it is how clean I've tried to make the code, (so that it looks trivial to most) and the usefulness of this makes it somewhat importaint. The submission of trivial software is a BIG indication of the programmer's level of experience, expertise, and general knowledge of the opensource community; if someone's feelings are hurt because their submission is rejected, that is even more tell-tale (IMHO). After some attempts to post trivial software such as more or less advanced shell scripts to make life easier for the crowd of us, I realized this is not right for freshmeat.net. freshmeat.net /articles/view/198   (11624 words)
