    fresh_42 replied to the thread Function notation.
    It depends a bit on whether f^2(c)=(f\circ f)(c)=f(f(c)) is an option at all. The specific line looks more as if f^2(c)=f(c)^2 was...

    Yes, I normally see the square written as (f(x))^2 or similar. I've gone through the book and don't see any similar notation. This...

    jpanknin reacted to fresh_42's post in the thread Function notation with Like Like.
    It normally means f^2(c)=f(f(c)). I would write (f(c))^2=f(c)^2, but this may depend on the author, where he puts the square. E.g...

    Can someone please explain the f^2(c) notation in the screenshot below? I've not seen this notation and according to Google searches it...

    Yeah that’s basically how playthrough works in most places - the playthrough / wagering requirement is just how many times you have to...

    Looking for a good source for you, I gave your problem to Google, which said almost exactly what I said to start: The question seems to...

    Actually I was saying that the answer made an assumption (R's are distinguishable) that did not appear (and was not implied) in the OP...

    Dr.Peterson replied to the thread vertical motion.
    Do you mean that you wrote the equation, and are confident of it? (One question I'd have is whether the 132 ft/sec is meant to be the...
  • Dr.Peterson
    Yes; but the comment you refer to is about an answer ("in that post") that treated them as R1 and R2: So it isn't yet answering the...

    Now I'm really confused. I looked at REGULAR very carefully. Does one of the R's have red hair? Is one of the R's taller? Just how...
  • Dr.Peterson
    I hope it's obvious that I meant to say, "Have you tried treating R and R as being indistinguishable?" The error, if we call it that...
  • Dr.Peterson
    Clearly this is not correct. Have you tried treating R and R as being different? It isn't a lot harder. I notice that there are online...

    I believe in that post two R's are considered different (R1 and R2), so there are actually 5040 ways.

    I'm confused. How are you defining rank? There are 2520 ways to arrange REGULAR. So how can one of them have rank 3045?
