C++ Programming/Classes/Member Functions

Member Functions
Member functions can (and should) be used to interact with data contained within user defined types. User defined types provide flexibility in the "divide and conquer" scheme in program writing. In other words, one programmer can write a user defined type and guarantee an interface. Another programmer can write the main program with that expected interface. The two pieces are put together and compiled for usage. User defined types provide encapsulation defined in the Object Oriented Programming (OOP) paradigm.

Within classes, to protect the data members, the programmer can define functions to perform the operations on those data members. Member functions and functions are names used interchangeably in reference to classes. Function prototypes are declared within the class definition. These prototypes can take the form of non-class functions as well as class suitable prototypes. Functions can be declared and defined within the class definition. However, most functions can have very large definitions and make the class very unreadable. Therefore it is possible to define the function outside of the class definition using the scope resolution operator "::". This scope resolution operator allows a programmer to define the functions somewhere else. This can allow the programmer to provide a header file .h defining the class and a .obj file built from the compiled .cpp file which contains the function definitions. This can hide the implementation and prevent tampering. The user would have to define every function again to change the implementation. Functions within classes can access and modify (unless the function is constant) data members without declaring them, because the data members are already declared in the class.

Simple example:

file: Foo.h

file: Foo.cpp

Overloading
Member functions can be overloaded. This means that multiple member functions can exist with the same name on the same scope, but must have different signatures. A member function's signature is comprised of the member function's name and the type and order of the member function's parameters.

Due to name hiding, if a member in the derived class shares the same name with members of the base class, they will be hidden to the compiler. To make those members visible, one can use declarations to introduce them from base class scopes.

Constructors and other class member functions, except the Destructor, can be overloaded.

Constructors
A constructor is a special member function that is called whenever a new instance of a class is created. The compiler calls the constructor after the new object has been allocated in memory, and converts that "raw" memory into a proper, typed object. The constructor is declared much like a normal member function but it will share the name of the class and it has no return value.

Constructors are responsible for almost all of the run-time setup necessary for the class operation. Its main purpose becomes in general defining the data members upon object instantiation (when an object is declared), they can also have arguments, if the programmer so chooses. If a constructor has arguments, then they should also be added to the declaration of any other object of that class when using the new operator. Constructors can also be overloaded.

using new with a constructor

A constructor can delegate to another (introduced in C++ 11). It is also considered desirable to reduce the use of default arguments, if a maintainer has to write and maintain multiple constructors it can result in code duplication, which reduces maintainability because of the potential for introducing inconsistencies and even lead to code bloat.

 * Default Constructors

A default constructor is one which can be called with no arguments. Most commonly, a default constructor is declared without any parameters, but it is also possible for a constructor with parameters to be a default constructor if all of those parameters are given default values.

In order to create an array of objects of a class type, the class must have an accessible default constructor; C++ has no syntax to specify constructor arguments for array elements.

Overloaded Constructors
When an object of a class is instantiated, the class writer can provide various constructors each with a different purpose. A large class would have many data members, some of which may or may not be defined when an object is instantiated. Anyway, each project will vary, so a programmer should investigate various possibilities when providing constructors.

These are all constructors for a class myFoo.

Constructor initialization lists
Constructor initialization lists (or member initialization list) are the only way to initialize data members and base classes with a non-default constructor. Constructors for the members are included between the argument list and the body of the constructor (separated from the argument list by a colon). Using the initialization lists is not only better in terms of efficiency but also the simplest way to guarantee that all initialization of data members are done before entering the body of constructors.

This is more efficient than assigning value to the complex data member inside the body of the constructor because in that case the variable is initialized with its corresponding constructor.

Note that the arguments provided to the constructors of the members do not need to be arguments to the constructor of the class; they can also be constants. Therefore you can create a default constructor for a class containing a member with no default constructor.

Example:

It is useful to initialize your members in the constructor using this initialization lists. This makes it obvious for the reader that the constructor does not execute logic. The order the initialization is done should be the same as you defined your base-classes and members. Otherwise you can get warnings at compile-time. Once you start initializing your members make sure to keep all in the constructor(s) to avoid confusion and possible 0xbaadfood.

It is safe to use constructor parameters that are named like members.

Example:

Note that this technique was also possible for normal functions but it is now obsoleted and is classified as an error in such case.

Destructors
Destructors like the Constructors are declared as any normal member functions but will share the same name as the Class, what distinguishes them is that the Destructor's name is preceded with a "~", it can not have arguments and can't be overloaded. Destructors are called whenever an Object of the Class is destroyed. Destructors are crucial in avoiding resource leaks (by deallocating memory), and in implementing the RAII idiom. Resources which are allocated in a Constructor of a Class are usually released in the Destructor of that Class as to return the system to some known or stable state after the Class ceases to exist.

The Destructor is invoked when Objects are destroyed, after the function they were declared in returns, when the delete operator is used or when the program is over. If an object of a derived type is destructed, first the Destructor of the most derived object is executed. Then member objects and base class subjects are destructed recursively, in the reverse order their corresponding Constructors completed. As with structs the compiler implicitly declares a Destructor as an inline public member of its class if the class doesn’t have a user-declared Destructor.

The dynamic type of the object will change from the most derived type as Destructors run, symmetrically to how it changes as Constructors execute. This affects the functions called by virtual calls during construction and destruction, and leads to the common (and reasonable) advice to avoid calling virtual functions of an object either directly or indirectly from its Constructors or Destructors.

Sharing most of the concepts we have seen before on the introduction to inline functions, when dealing with member function those concepts are extended, with a few additional considerations.

If the member functions definition is included inside the declaration of the class, that function is by default made implicitly inline. Compiler options may override this behavior.

Calls to virtual functions cannot be inlined if the object's type is not known at compile-time, because we don't know which function to inline.

const
This type of member function cannot modify the member variables of a class. It's a hint both to the programmer and the compiler that a given member function doesn't change the internal state of a class; however, any variables declared as mutable can still be modified.

Take for example:

Here value clearly does not change m_value and as such can and should be const. However setValue does modify m_value and as such cannot be const.

Another subtlety often missed is a const member function cannot call a non-const member function (and the compiler will complain if you try). The const member function cannot change member variables and a non-const member functions can change member variables. Since we assume non-const member functions do change member variables, const member functions are assumed to never change member variables and can't call functions that do change member variables.

The following code example explains what const can do depending on where it is placed.

Accessors and Modifiers (Setter/Getter)

 * What is an accessor?:An accessor is a member function that does not modify the state of an object. The accessor functions should be declared as const.

 * Getter is another common definition of an accessor due to the naming ( GetSize ) of that type of member functions.

 * What is a modifier?:A modifier, also called a modifying function, is a member function that changes the value of at least one data member. In other words, an operation that modifies the state of an object. Modifiers are also known as ‘mutators’.

 * Setter is another common definition of a modifier due to the naming ( <tt>SetSize( int a_Size )</tt> ) of that type of member functions.

Law of three
The "law of three" is not really a law, but rather a guideline: if a class needs an explicitly declared copy constructor, copy assignment operator, or destructor, then it usually needs all three.

There are exceptions to this rule (or, to look at it another way, refinements). For example, sometimes a destructor is explicitly declared just in order to make it ; in that case there's not necessarily a need to declare or implement the copy constructor and copy assignment operator.

Most classes should not declare any of the "big three" operations; classes that manage resources generally need all three.

Statistical manifold

In mathematics, a statistical manifold is a Riemannian manifold, each of whose points is a probability distribution. Statistical manifolds provide a setting for the field of information geometry. The Fisher information metric provides a metric on these manifolds. Following this definition, the log-likelihood function is a differentiable map and the score is an inclusion.

Examples
The family of all normal distributions can be thought of as a 2-dimensional parametric space parametrized by the expected value μ and the variance σ2 ≥ 0. Equipped with the Riemannian metric given by the Fisher information matrix, it is a statistical manifold with a geometry modeled on hyperbolic space. A way of picturing the manifold is done by inferring the parametric equations via the Fisher Information rather than starting from the likelihood-function.

A simple example of a statistical manifold, taken from physics, would be the canonical ensemble: it is a one-dimensional manifold, with the temperature T serving as the coordinate on the manifold. For any fixed temperature T, one has a probability space: so, for a gas of atoms, it would be the probability distribution of the velocities of the atoms. As one varies the temperature T, the probability distribution varies.

Another simple example, taken from medicine, would be the probability distribution of patient outcomes, in response to the quantity of medicine administered. That is, for a fixed dose, some patients improve, and some do not: this is the base probability space. If the dosage is varied, then the probability of outcomes changes. Thus, the dosage is the coordinate on the manifold. To be a smooth manifold, one would have to measure outcomes in response to arbitrarily small changes in dosage; this is not a practically realizable example, unless one has a pre-existing mathematical model of dose-response where the dose can be arbitrarily varied.

Definition
Let X be an orientable manifold, and let $$(X,\Sigma,\mu)$$ be a measure on X. Equivalently, let $$(\Omega, \mathcal{F},P)$$ be a probability space on $$\Omega=X$$, with sigma algebra $$\mathcal{F}=\Sigma$$ and probability $$P=\mu$$.

The statistical manifold S(X) of X is defined as the space of all measures $$\mu$$ on X (with the sigma-algebra $$\Sigma$$ held fixed). Note that this space is infinite-dimensional; it is commonly taken to be a Fréchet space. The points of S(X) are measures.

Rather than dealing with an infinite-dimensional space S(X), it is common to work with a finite-dimensional submanifold, defined by considering a set of probability distributions parameterized by some smooth, continuously varying parameter $$\theta$$. That is, one considers only those measures that are selected by the parameter. If the parameter $$\theta$$ is n-dimensional, then, in general, the submanifold will be as well. All finite-dimensional statistical manifolds can be understood in this way.

Details about pseudo-synagogue in Baltimore
Some details about the church in Baltimore from having seen it in person. The synagogue church in Baltimore has several Christianized details. First, the building has large bright red doors. It is rare for a synagogue to have bright red doors, as bright red doors are used in many Christian denominations (many Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist, and Roman Catholic churches in particular) to signify the blood of Christ. Second, the Magen David above the doors is desecrated by the IHS Christogram inscribed in the middle. Lastly, the cornerstone on the left side of the building has a Hebrew verse that quotes the Christian Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 21:42) as well as Psalms 118:22. The verse from the Gospel of Matthew is of Jesus quoting Psalms 118:22 (Hallel, Tehillim 118:22, "The stone that the builders rejected became a cornerstone."). This building is located in what was once a Jewish immigrant neighborhood of Baltimore, very close to Corned Beef Row. Attman's Deli and the Jewish Museum are a stone's throw away.

Dolly (trailer)

A dolly is an unpowered vehicle designed for connection to a tractor unit, truck or prime mover vehicle with strong traction power.

Classification by axle configuration

There are several types of dolly bogie:

 * Full trailer - 2 axle (4 wheels), with a draw bar which also controls the trailer's front axle steering. The draw bar does not take load of the full trailer. Heavy full trailer needs to have its own brakes remotely controlled by the prime mover vehicle.
 * Semi-trailer - 1 axle (2 wheels), without the front axle but have a landing gear. Large semi-trailer of truck size is designed for connection via the fifth wheel on the tractor unit or the semi-trailer truck. Small semi-trailer such as travel trailer and boat trailer is designed for connection via a tow hitch of a passenger vehicle. Either the fifth wheel or the tow hitch takes up to half the load of the semi-trailer.
 * Road train - special large dolly bogie equipped with a fifth wheel for further connection by the gooseneck type drawbar of another similar dolly and form a road train. The last dolly in a road train needs its own rear lights, brakes remotely controlled by the prime mover vehicle, and registration plate.
 * Tow dolly - a semi-trailer designed as automobile rescue equipment. It is designed to couple to the concerned automobile's powered wheel, i.e. the front wheel of a Front-wheel drive automobile, or the rear wheel of a rear-wheel drive automobile, by locking the powered wheels onto the tow dolly's tray. The tow dolly is tow hitch connected to a tractor or truck. Tow dollies are legal in all 50 US states and Canada. In the U.S. and Canada brakes are required on any loaded car tow dolly.

Classification by coupling configuration
There are two basic types:
 * Converter dolly, equipped with between one and three axles and designed to connect to a towbar on the rear of the truck or trailer in front. There are two variants of this:
 * An A-dolly has a single drawbar with a centred coupling.
 * A C-dolly has two separate couplings side-by-side.
 * Low loader dolly, equipped with a gooseneck type drawbar that attaches to the fifth wheel coupling on the rear of a prime mover to distribute the mass on the fifth wheel on the dolly between the prime mover and the wheels of the dolly. These are predominantly fitted with two axles.

Australia
Converter dollies are used in road trains in Australia, most commonly with two or three axles and a hinged drawbar. They are also frequently referred to as road train dollies.

The C-dolly design is not allowed in Australia, as it prevents articulation between the dolly wheels and the axles of the truck or trailer in front of the dolly. Australian rules require articulation between axle groups.

Low-loader dollies – which present a kingpin rather than a drawbar coupling – are used with many low loaders to allow heavy cargo to be carried without overloading the wheels of the prime mover or the low loader.

Airport dolly

Dollies are used for the transportation of loose baggages, oversized bags, mail bags, loose cargo carton boxes, etc. between an aircraft and the terminal or sorting facility. In the US, these dollies are called baggage carts, but in Europe baggage cart means baggage trolleys used by individual passengers.

Cookbook:Corn Syrup

| Sweeteners

Corn syrup is a glucose syrup made from corn, specifically cornstarch.

Characteristics
The syrup is made by heating the cornstarch with water, before adding an acid, enzymes, or both. These break down the starch into smaller molecules, ultimately producing a syrupy mixture of glucose, maltose, and other carbohydrates. This syrup may then be refined to remove any color and produce a clear, viscous syrup.

The characteristics of a given corn syrup will depend largely on how much of the starch is completely converted to glucose. A low-conversion syrup has a higher proportion of non-sugar carbohydrates, which makes it more viscous and less sweet, and the opposite is true for high-conversion syrups, which have more sugars compared to other carbohydrates. Generic corn syrup is somewhere in the middle, with medium conversion and about 50% glucose content. Some high-conversion corn syrups may be treated with another enzyme to convert a large amount of the glucose to fructose—this produces high-fructose corn syrup, which is sweeter than regular corn syrup. A syrup with 42% fructose and a roughly equal proportion of glucose is very common and has a similar sweetness to table sugar. Corn syrup may also have molasses or other colorants/flavorings added, which yields dark corn syrup.

Selection and storage
Corn syrup has a long shelf life. Keep it in a cool, dry place. It may darken very slightly over time.

Use
The primary applications of corn syrup include sweetening, moistening, coloring, and altering texture of various foods. Because the non-sugar carbohydrates of corn syrup interfere with its sugar molecules, low-to-medium conversion corn syrups are added to various confections (e.g. fondant, icing, caramel, etc) to reduce the risk of undesirable crystals. In a similar way, they also reduce ice crystal formation in ice creams, and they add body to foods. High-fructose corn syrup often provides a cheaper way to add sweetness to beverages compared to using table sugar. Dark corn syrup is sometimes used as a cheap substitute for molasses, but it has less flavor and different properties. Corn syrup also slows moisture loss from baked goods, which can maintain freshness.

Medium-conversion light corn syrup is a great all-purpose corn syrup to keep on hand for home bakers. Higher-skill bakers or those wanting to precisely optimize their recipes may want to experiment with different varieties of corn syrup

Substitution
Cane syrup, golden syrup, and light treacle are sometimes used as substitutes for corn syrup, but they are unfortunately not exact matches. They will produce different effects if substituted, so the best substitute for corn syrup is another glucose syrup, made from a different starch. Light corn syrup can be used instead of dark, though the flavor and color will be different. High-fructose corn syrup may be used in place of honey, which also has high fructose content —note, however, that the characteristic honey flavor will be lost.

Conlang/Intermediate/Sound notation

Imagine that you go to another country. You can't speak this country's language, and so you grab a travel book with some common sentences. Let's say you go to France, and you see that the way you ask for the hotel is "S'il vous plaît, où est l'hôtel?". Try to say it. If you don't know how to read French, perhaps you are trying to read it as an English sentence. That's just not good, because you might read it something like "Sil vooze plate, ow ehst low-tel", which doesn't sound like the French sentence you wanted to say.

IPA and CXS
To prevent such things from happening, an alphabet was invented to represent the most common sounds in all languages on Earth, called the International Phonetic Alphabet, or IPA. In order to represent each sound by a single symbol, the designers of the IPA have created a great many new letters — upper- and lower-case Roman letters treated separately, modified versions of Roman letters that rotate them, flip them around, or add hooks, loops, or bars to them, Greek letters, and a few symbols that are partly or completely new. IPA is a very valuable tool for linguists, but there's also a downside to all those special symbols. They aren't easy to add into electronic documents — there isn't a key on a standard keyboard for, say, ɰ — and they're hard to display, too — with all those little details, they require higher resolution than ordinary text (that is, plain ASCII), and many computer programs can't display them at all. To get around these problems, people have invented various alternatives to IPA using standard ASCII characters (though of course these alternatives sometimes need more than one character to represent a single sound). For this book, we're going to use one such alternative designed by and for conlangers, called Conlang X-SAMPA, or CXS for short. (The full name, in case you're curious, is "Conlang Extended Speech Assessment Methods Phonetic Alphabet".)

There is a chart of CXS sound names available in the appendix. Don't worry, you don't need to know all these sounds right now; the next section will introduce you to some of the more common English ones. There are a few general patterns that may help make sense out of the overall arrangement of CXS. (Don't put yourself out trying to memorize these patterns; it should be enough later that you've been exposed to them now.) Most consonants start with a letter; if any additional symbols are needed, the additional symbols usually aren't letters, and if there is an additional letter it's preceded by an underscore, like "" or "". Most digits are used to represent vowels. The backslash, backquote, tilde, and semicolon symbols, "    ", are only used as modifiers after something else to form a different sound — though it will turn out that, of these, backquote, tilde, and semicolon modify the sound in uniform ways, while backslash usually means "something similar to", and occasionally is used to make a new symbol with no relation at all to the old one. The underscore symbol, "", is only used as a separator between other symbols within the representation of a single sound.

CXS is a handy single phonetic alphabet if you only get to learn one, and we won't expect you to learn any other phonetic alphabets for this book. But, that said, you'll also find IPA being used routinely by conlangers in finished documents (like slide presentations, or language descriptions made to be printable on paper); so it will probably pay off for you to become somewhat familiar with IPA as well. To help you along with that, we've set up a chart showing both IPA and CXS together, for comparison.

Distinguishing sounds from letters
You may have noticed during the Beginner lesson on sounds that there was some trouble distinguishing between the sounds that we say and the words that we write. To solve this problem linguists tend to write sounds — that are spoken — between a pair of forward-slashes (//) and letters — that are written — between angle brackets (<>).

For example, the English word ship is written <ship> and pronounced // (in CXS, or in IPA).

Talk:Pita-Ten

First header
What happened to the pita ten manga page? And what happened to the pita ten anime information? attention should be payed to that.Kurui 00:00, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * We must IMPROVE the Pita-Ten article!! It's one of the best animes!!! PiyokoPyo 00:00 23 March (UTC)
 * It's on my "Anime I love but can't find the time to fix up the Wikipedia article to do list" --Squilibob 02:55, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

A few things to improve

 * Why does each character have it's information here AND on a page of their own? That is totally unnecessary and clogs up the main page. Plus, the character section is a mess. The indenting of information seems a little overused and it's just a block of information.I don't really want to go through it as I've only just started reading the manga and don't want to read spoilers.
 * Also, the artical refers to it as PitaTen, Pita-Ten, Pitaten and Pita Ten. Shouldn't it all be the same? My copy says Pita-Ten, but I don't think that all do. It might be better if all used said the same version through the article because using variations just adds to the messiess of the page. A section could be made to mention the different versions of the name though. Tartan 18:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I have proposed that the pages be combined into one page List of Pitaten characters or something similar. We're definitely using Pitaten throughout the article as that is what the name of the article is. --Squilibob 06:40, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I have merged the character pages as per WP:FICT as a lot of anime article have been merged as such lately. --Squilibob 14:03, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Shōjo or Shōnen?
A lot of edit warring has been occurring on this article over whether it is a shōjo or shōnen series. Instead of just reverting each others changes please state your reasoning for why it should be classed one way or the other. --Squilibob 05:44, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think people are stating it as a shounen series because the manga was serialized in a shounen magazine. Even so, this is in no way a shounen series in my opinion, and I'm positive most people will agree. The majority of it's fanbase is female, isn't that enough? Do I have a source? Yes, Google. I don't know what it's creator calls it, but if most people think of it as shoujo, it's shoujo. SoulSlayer 17:40, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Flawed logic aside (Google should NOT substitute for an unbiased census), shoujo/shounen classifications are defined solely as the intended target audience by the author/publisher. Running a series in a shounen serial makes it undeniably shounen, regardless of subject matter.  This is not for debate. -StarCreator <IP_ADDRESS> 08:35, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Spoilers
The opening part of this section has a spoiler in it; it tells how the anime ends.. or, rather I should say it ruins the ending. Repku 19:05, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Pita-ten?
Why is this not located under Pita-Ten? The manga is licensed in the U.S. by Tokyopop with a dash, thus by wikipedia policy, the article should call it Pita-Ten. --Wirbelwind 05:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Requested move
Pitaten → Pita-Ten — In the Manual of Style for Japan-related articles, #7 states "Names should be romanized according to common usage, which includes unconventional romanizations by licensees....".

Tokyopop
Iwant to delee the external link to the tokyopop site,as tokyopop is a fanbased website,and not of the standard of an unbiased informative website.It is purley fanbased,ans as such, we should not be using it as a reference,as it is 'not purely factual'.

Manga vs. Anime
I do remember an earlier version of this article containing information about the differences between the two mediums. It was a bit too extensive, but a think a general description should be included. --Imaginationac (Talk | Edits |<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Email]) 00:52, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Television Osaka as a producer
Television Osaka is indeed a main producer of the anime series; in the (Snubbed, copyright violation) and ending credits it is as follows: 製作: テレビ大阪、読売広告社、ぴた組, and in ja.wikipedia and some other websites already documented. It is also noticable in the copyright notice of the product: (C)コゲどんぼ・メディアワークス/ぴた組・テレビ大阪. I don't think this is something so controversial that would start an edit war! Furthermore, Animanga infobox in English Wikipedia doesn't have a parameter like  that exists in Japanese Wikipedia to show such details. And then we have articles in Japanese Wikipeia like スマイルプリキュア! (Smile PreCure!) [shows the network in infobox in form of 放送局: ABC・テレビ朝日系列] or マギ (Magi) [shows the network in infobox in form of 放送局: MBS・TBS系列] that are simulcasts and their key stations (as content provider in the network and main producer and investor) are highlighted in the infobox. To highlight the key station in the infobox in some form (what I tried to do) is useful information in my opinion, and I don't see the need to remove it repeatedly. Raamin (talk) 02:44, 14 December 2013 (UTC) 2. The famitsu link I provided highlights Television Osaka (as the key station) and mentions it explicitly alongside TXN (テレビ大阪・テレビ東京系ほか全国16局). TV Osaka is one the main producers of this series and the key station. I provided a reliable source that highlights TV Osaka; I find this a useful information that helps readers and have the right to add it. I didn't violate any policy or gudeline; you can't revert my edits and remove infos with their sources from the article, just becuase you don't like it. Raamin (talk) 20:31, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Provide a reliable source that Osaka is a producer of the anime, that's all I said. Having it in the copyright notice is not enough. Do not highlight the main station in the infobox for accesibility to general readers. DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 02:52, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
 * We can see it clearly in the credits in OPs and EDs; How is this something to be ignored?! TV Osaka even hosted the anime website (in contrast to TV Tokyo that hosts websites of anime it produces). These are simple facts; I don't understand the strong opposition to add such an information? Furthermore, why commands like "Do not highlight the main station in the infobox for accesibility to general readers"? I am not violating any ploicy or guideline; is this not true? Highlighting the key station in the infobox is useful in my opinion (I can even provide reliable sources that highlight it), and you haven't provide a good reason to show why I am not allowed to do so. Raamin (talk) 03:08, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
 * The primary source opening only repeats the copyrighted quote which you pasted. That is not enough. Provide a reliable source which says 製作: (TV Osaka) Ex: ToS staff. Madhouse lists (TV作品（アニメーション制作） TV東京), the second being Tokyo TV which I infered as TXN because of the many channels it premiered on. Because of this, I have to be skeptical of TV Osaka. As for highlighting the keystation, you need to keep in mind the format a general reader sees. The format (TXN (TV Osaka)) does not make sense and is an issue of accessibility. We do not follow the Japanese article's formats and fancruft. For producing studios, use the produced by template of the infobox such as the one at Rozen Maiden. I am going to be away now. Don't expect a reply until tomorrow. DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 03:40, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
 * 1. Episodes of Pita-Ten anime series are available on DVD. I quote from WP:RS: "The term "published" is most commonly associated with text materials, either in traditional printed format or online. However, audio, video, and multimedia materials that have been recorded then broadcast, distributed, or archived by a reputable party may also meet the necessary criteria to be considered reliable sources. Like text sources, media sources must be produced by a reliable third party and be properly cited. Additionally, an archived copy of the media must exist. It is convenient, but by no means necessary, for the archived copy to be accessible via the Internet." Quote from WP:Published: "A film, video, CD, or DVD distributed to theatres or video stores; a radio program including its contents actually broadcast; a television broadcast; a streaming video or audio source on the Internet; a song recording distributed to a public." Credits in the openings and endings are part of this published material and can be used as a (primary) source. For such simple infos, there is no need for an edit war! If you don't agree with my argument, we could take this matter to WP:RSN. This is word for word from credits: 製作: テレビ大阪、読売広告社、ぴた組, English equivalent would be Production: Television Osaka, Yomiko Advertising, Pita-Group. Japanese Wikipedia uses exactly these credits; I don't see what the problem is.

First of, I never said primary sources should not be used. I missed the production credits in the opening and had assumed you were only using the copyrighted text as your source, but that picture proves the production credits. Secondary, I had the right to be skeptical about TV Osaka. All the sources in the article, which I had to comb through tons of archives to add, never explicitly stated that fact. Thirdly, the style of highlighting of main network was perfectly debatable. Both styles are not against guidelines. You believe it benefits readers, I believe it is redundant and better summarized as TXN for a general reader and detailed in the prose. It is not wrong here to disagree about this. DragonZero ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 07:30, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Third opinion
1. We should differentiate between a network (like TXN), and a television station (like TV Tokyo); in animanga infobox regional and satellite TV stations are listed in general. 2. If we compare it with USA, the Japanese system is the other way around. TV networks like ANN, NNS, TXN or JNN or not a parent company (like CBS), owning and running local TV stations (like WCBS); these networks are owend by their member TV stations and led by key TV sations like TV Asahi, NTV, TV Tokyo or TBS (these stations I mentioned all are located in Tokyo and only accessible in Kantō region). 3. In Pita-Ten's case, we should mention TXN, because the series was a simulcast on all its 6 member stations (and was also shown on 10 other non-affiliated stations mentioned in infobox).

Talk:Quantum mechanics/Course

What does the hat notation imply?

$$\psi(\hat{r})$$

It's a very usual notation in Quantum mechanics: Did you notice the observable $$\hat{X}$$ also weared one? Well, the hat just means "this is an observable". So yes, $$\hat{r}$$ (position) is also an observable. Whitout further knowledge the only explanation that can be given is "you can certainly observe (measure) the position of a particle".

If you know about Fourier transform, I can expand it - and when you have all the basis, it's fairly trivial that $$\hat{r}$$ (or $$\hat{x}$$ in 1D) and $$\hat{p}$$ (linear momentum) are observables.

Please post any questions you have. It's the best way to motivate me to contribute. --Jorge 15:21, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Why "I"?
Why is this called Quantum Mechanics "I"? Which criteria do we follow to separate on courses? --Jorge 17:08, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Wavefunction as 'the basis of quantum mechanics'
It is arguable that the wavefunction is the basis of QM. Aside from this, it is more logical in practice that students should deal with Dirac's notation for quantum systems, which can be thought of as an amalgam of Schrödinger's and Heisenberg's approach to QM. In the real world, hardly anyone talks about wavefunctions anymore. They're simply not as useful!

States should be represented as vectors in a vector space:

$$\vert \psi \rangle$$

Then the expectation value of some measurement (say of position using the position operator $$\hat{x}$$) is given by

$$\langle \psi \vert \hat{x} \vert \psi \rangle$$

Would you agree that this is the way to go?

Dmonkey 00:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

 * I can talk you about my experience: A few years ago I knew very well about Fourier transforms, and (from it) about identifying functions with vectors of infinite and continous dimension (and transforms with matrix multiplication), and also about wavefunctions, but haven't been thaught yet about what those <s, |s and >s meant. Every time I saw that notation in a WP article I couldn't understand a single equation!! I even didn't link the different <s, |s and >s with what I know is "their content", and thougth they were some kind of mysterious operators, rather than mere special parenthesis. When they tougth it to me, I had no more problems with them, and of course I also "fell in love" with the burden the notation removed from me, and the smartness of identifying a vector (and matrices) without relying on its coordinates (which depended on the basis, e.g. x, or p).
 * I agree with you that the state space (although not necesarily the quantum one) should be presented and used earlier, and that the Dirac notation should also be presented before QM, in a Mathematics course, so the student doesn't have to discover by himself that the notation isn't something pertaining to QM, but rather mathematical language. (And a language that contributes to alienate even more QM to the new student). The notation can be presented as earlier as in first year's Algebra, after Quadratic Forms (associating bras with row vectors, kets with column vectors, operators with matrices, and yuxtaposition with matrix multiplication - at this point the student knows yet about diagonalizing and bases of eigenvectors). A year or two later, after Hermitic operators matrices are taugth, it should be showed why converting kets to bras (transposing complex vectors) implies conjugating the complex scalars within them.
 * We must be careful that the notation is well explained and understood, because no material on QM is comprehensible to who doesn't understand it. I, however, disagree with the removal of the wavefunction, since it is a lot easier for the student to understand and believe interference if he has acces to the image of a wave in space. It is also more suited to explain the current of probability than kets, for the explicit graphical interpretation it provides.
 * Let's see what everybody else believes. --Jorge 02:10, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Jorge, I have never seen a treatment of the nomenclature at the level you describe above. I think a math refresher course aimed at reviewing/showing the math concepts and tying them to the nomenclature you describe above would be a very useful course/module for people like me twenty years away from the advanced math concepts we handled in College. Perhaps such an outline of lesson plans could rely heavily on Wikibooks. I think their math shelves are fairly advanced. Mirwin 05:50, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

 * http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Waves/Fourier_Transforms This has twelve pages of pretty good review of math related to waves. Probably should link to it anywhere someone might need a review of waves treated mathematically.  Mirwin 05:56, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

 * I've started Dirac's notation as you requested. Not that I have much time now that the semester has started again, but this is the way wiki works, with little steps =) --Jorge 01:07, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

state machines in QM
Is there value in discussing state machines in the QM study guide? This would include not only finite state machines but also abstract state machines. ASMs provide an analysis of the concept of state, which can be beneficial in some discussions. FSMs have the advantage of simplicity. I suspect that both could be used in the foundations of QM. Can you provide references to previous publications or wiki discussions of state machines in QM? Thanks. Telecomtom 07:04, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

not verifying, just fixing formatting
Why are some of her roles in bold text and others not?

What is unknown about the 2 titles in the Fumiko Orikasa#Unknown section? The years? i got the years from the linked articles and added both to the Fumiko Orikasa section.

1 of those titles is Restol, The Special Rescue Squad. Is it "unknown" because it's a "South Korean animated television series" rather than Japanese anime? We might bend the rules a little putting it in the Anime series section by virtue of the fact that (according to the anime article) in Japan and in Japanese, anime (a term derived from a shortening of the English word animation) describes all animated works, regardless of style or origin. That way we avoid having a section with Restol as its only entry. Could even rename the section Animated series if we had to.

Can a bot italicize all the titles in the Fumiko Orikasa section, or would someone have to change them all manually?

A Tailored Gentleman

A Tailored Gentleman (Spanish: Caballero a la medida) is a 1954 Mexican comedy film, directed by Miguel M. Delgado and starring Cantinflas, Martha Valdés and Ángel Garasa. The film's art direction was by Gunther Gerszo.

Plot
Cantinflas is a model of tuxedos for a tailor shop, wandering around in the streets wearing the tuxedos while also wearing an ad put on his back. In the meantime, he also works as a tailor for his neighbors, and collaborates with Lita (Martha Valdés) and Father Feliciano (Domingo Soler) in the neighborhood's dispensary, where Lita works as a nurse. At the same time, the life of Don Pascual Lachica (Ángel Garasa), an anguished millionaire whose family only respects him as a provider, is shown. One day after work, Cantinflas arrives to return the tuxedo, but the store was closed, so he takes the ad off his back and returns home while still well-dressed, running on his way home into the wedding of Don Pascual's daughter. Don Pascual, seeing him elegantly dressed, confuses him with a millionaire and likes the sincerity with which Cantinflas treats him and offers him his friendship.

Through Cantinflas, Don Pascual discovers that his money and himself can be useful to the poor, and provides money for the charitable works Cantinflas does. However, when Simón Sicario, the evil villain of Cantinflas's neighborhood, is murdered and robbed, Cantinflas is believed to be the culprit.

Ramesh Babu

Ghattamaneni Ramesh Babu (13 October 1965 – 8 January 2022) was an Indian actor and film producer, who was known for his work in Telugu cinema. Babu made his on screen debut with the film Alluri Seetharama Raju in 1974. He acted in over 15 films before retiring from acting in 1997. In 2004, he became a producer and established Krishna Productions Private Ltd, a film production company named after his father. He produced films like Arjun and Athidhi, both of which had his brother Mahesh Babu in leading role. One of his last roles was as a presenter for the 2011 film Dookudu.

Early life
Ramesh Babu was born on 13 October 1965 in Chennai, Tamil Nadu to prominent Telugu film actor Krishna and his first wife Indira Devi. He was their first-born child. He has three younger sisters, actress-producer Manjula Ghattamaneni, Padmavathi and Priyadarshini and one younger brother, Mahesh Babu an actor in Telugu Cinema.

Acting career
In 1977, Ramesh Babu ventured into films as a child actor at the age of 12 with his father's film Manushulu Chesina Dongalu. After two years, at the age of 14, he was cast in a vital role in the film Needa, which was directed by Dasari Narayana Rao. The film also had his four-year-old brother, Mahesh Babu in a small role. After that, he took a brief hiatus from acting. In 1987, he made his comeback as a lead actor with the film Samraat, directed by V. Madhusudhana Rao. The film had Sonam paired alongside Ramesh and Sharada in a vital role. In 1988, he was seen in films such as Jandhyala's Chinni Krishnudu, A. Kodandarami Reddy's Bazaar Rowdy and in Kaliyuga Karnudu and Mugguru Kodukulu, both directed by his father. Mugguru Kodukulu also had his father and brother acting alongside him. Bazaar Rowdy became a blockbuster and giving Ramesh his first success as a solo hero. In 1989, he was seen in Dasari Narayana Rao's Black Tiger and V. Madhusudhana Rao's Krishna Gaari Abbayi. In 1990, he was seen in K. Murali Mohan Rao's Ayudham and S. S. Ravichandra's Kaliyuga Abhimanyudu. In 1991, he was seen in Naa Ille Naa Swargam, also starring his father. In 1993, he once again collaborated with Dasari Narayana Rao for the film Maama Kodalu and was also seen in Anna Chellelu opposite Aamani. In 1994, he was seen for the last time in a leading role in the film Pacha Thoranam. The film was directed by Adurthi Saibhaskar and had Rambha acting opposite Ramesh. In 1997, he was seen in a supporting role in N. Shankar's Encounter.

Film producer
In 2004, Ramesh Babu established a film production company named Krishna Productions Private Ltd in Hyderabad. He named the company after his father and ventured into film production with the film Arjun. Directed by Gunasekhar and starring his brother Mahesh Babu, Shriya Saran, Keerthi Reddy, Raja, Prakash Raj and Saritha, the film was successful at the box office and completed its 100-day theatrical run in 6 centres. His production house was praised for the ₹ 40 million worth Meenakshi Amman Temple set that was built by Thotta Tharani for the film. His next production venture was Athidhi. Directed by Surender Reddy, the film once again had his brother Mahesh Babu in lead role. Amrita Rao was paired opposite Mahesh and Murali Sharma in a negative role. For Athidhi, Ramesh Babu's production house collaborated with UTV Motion Pictures to produce the film. This was the first time a corporate company entered into Telugu film production. The film opened to negative reviews and failed at the box office. In 2011, Babu was seen as a presenter for the film Dookudu.

Personal life and death
Ramesh Babu died from the effects of liver disease on 8 January 2022, at the age of 56, in Hyderabad, India.

Talk:Strongly interacting massive particle

Another meaning
SIMP is also an acronym for MITRE's "Simple Instant Messaging and Presence" protocol.
 * We don't seem to have an article on that at this time. RJFJR (talk) 02:11, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Section for review
This section, added by one user in a series of edits, should be reviewed and edited for clarity RJFJR (talk) 02:07, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

 A strongly interactive dark matter is what waves in wave-particle duality in terms of Louis de Broglie's Double Solution Theory.

Non-linear Wave Mechanics: A Causal Interpretation - Louis de Broglie. Amsterdam: Elsevier, 1960.

 * “Since 1954, when this passage was written, I have come to support wholeheartedly an hypothesis proposed by Bohm and Vigier. According to this hypothesis, the random perturbations to which the particle would be constantly subjected, and which would have the probability of presence in terms of [the wave-function wave], arise from the interaction of the particle with a “subquantic medium” which escapes our observation and is entirely chaotic, and which is everywhere present in what we call “empty space”.”

"The interaction of the particle with a "subquantic medium"" is another way of describing a strongly interactive dark matter. In de Broglie's double solution theory, in a double slit experiment the particle travels through a single slit and the associated wave in the strongly interactive dark matter passes through both.

A strongly interactive dark matter medium would be displaced by the particles of matter that exist in it and move through it. This is what de Broglie was referring to when he said, "The interaction of the particle with a "subquantic medium"".

Aetherdisplacement (talk) 13:31, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is not a place for original research. If you believe that strongly interacting DM is the same as de Broglie's subquantic medium, publish your research in a reputable journal, do not deface an encyclopedia. vttoth (talk) 05:43, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

- What the following articles are referring to is a strongly interactive dark matter.

Fluid mechanics suggests alternative to quantum orthodoxy http://newsoffice.mit.edu/2014/fluid-systems-quantum-mechanics-0912

 * “The fluidic pilot-wave system is also chaotic. It’s impossible to measure a bouncing droplet’s position accurately enough to predict its trajectory very far into the future. But in a recent series of papers, Bush, MIT professor of applied mathematics Ruben Rosales, and graduate students Anand Oza and Dan Harris applied their pilot-wave theory to show how chaotic pilot-wave dynamics leads to the quantumlike statistics observed in their experiments.”

A “fluidic pilot-wave system” is the strongly interacting dark matter.

‘When Fluid Dynamics Mimic Quantum Mechanics’ http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/07/130729111934.htm

 * “If you have a system that is deterministic and is what we call in the business ‘chaotic,’ or sensitive to initial conditions, sensitive to perturbations, then it can behave probabilistically,” Milewski continues. “Experiments like this weren’t available to the giants of quantum mechanics. They also didn’t know anything about chaos. Suppose these guys — who were puzzled by why the world behaves in this strange probabilistic way — actually had access to experiments like this and had the knowledge of chaos, would they have come up with an equivalent, deterministic theory of quantum mechanics, which is not the current one? That’s what I find exciting from the quantum perspective.”

'1st place: Shifting the morals of quantum measurement' http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/2011/dec/16/physics-world-reveals-its-top-10-breakthroughs-for-2011

 * "Using an emerging technique called "weak measurement", the team is the first to track the average paths of single photons passing through a Young's double-slit experiment – something that Steinberg says physicists had been "brainwashed" into thinking is impossible."

'Quantum mechanics rule 'bent' in classic experiment' http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-13626587

 * "For his part, Professor Steinberg believes that the result reduces a limitation not on quantum physics but on physicists themselves. "I feel like we're starting to pull back a veil on what nature really is," he said. "The trouble with quantum mechanics is that while we've learned to calculate the outcomes of all sorts of experiments, we've lost much of our ability to describe what is really happening in any natural language. I think that this has really hampered our ability to make progress, to come up with new ideas and see intuitively how new systems ought to behave.""

'New 'Double Slit' Experiment Skirts Uncertainty Principle' http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=new-double-slit-experiment-skirts-uncertainty-principle

 * "Intriguingly, the trajectories closely match those predicted by an unconventional interpretation of quantum mechanics known as pilot-wave theory, in which each particle has a well-defined trajectory that takes it through one slit while the associated wave passes through both slits."

What waves in a double slit experiment is the strongly interactive dark matter.

There is evidence of the strongly interactive dark matter every time a double slit experiment is performed, it's what waves.

DAMA Reference
Reference 12 in "SIMPs annhilations would produce significant heat. DAMA set limits with NaITl crystals.[12]" doesn't seem to support this sentence but instead refers to heat flow in Uranus, which is covered in the next paragraph/sentence which is referenced by [13]. Do we need change the referencing? RJFJR (talk) 15:07, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I think so. I've moved ref 12 and flagged it. - Rod57 (talk) 14:41, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Is this exactly the same as strongly interacting dark matter
Is this exactly the same as strongly interacting dark matter ? That's what most of the references talk about. Perhaps this article should be split or renamed or the relationship clarified ? - Rod57 (talk) 04:20, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Good catch, but I think the phrase you use was never particularly common because SIMP is more catchy and because SIDM is already an acronym for something else. And scientists have a sense of humor ... SIMP was already funny because it rhymes with WIMP, but now we have a whole new meaning coming into fashion. — Soap — 14:12, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

The Apprentice (British TV series) series 15

The fifteenth series of British reality television series The Apprentice (UK) was broadcast in the UK on BBC One, from 2 October to 18 December 2019. As with the previous series, the first task was conducted abroad, with the candidates travelling further afield than had been previously staged in the programme's history of business-related tasks held in other countries. In addition, the sister programme The Apprentice - You're Fired saw a change in the host before the series broadcast, with comedian Tom Allen overseeing interviews with candidates after their final appearance within this series. Alongside the standard twelve episodes, the series was preceded by the mini online episode "Meet the Candidates" on 24 September, with two specials aired alongside the series – "The Final Five" on 10 December, and "Why I Fired Them" on 18 December.

Sixteen candidates took part in the fifteenth series, with Carina Lepore becoming the overall winner. Excluding the specials, the series averaged around 7.17 million viewers during its broadcast.

Series overview
Applications for the fifteenth series began in late November 2018, towards the end of the fourteenth series, with applicants assessed and interviewed by production staff between January and February 2019. Filming took place during Spring to early Summer that year, once the final line-up of sixteen participants had been finalised, with final editing completed before the programme's premiere episode was broadcast in mid-Autumn. The series maintained the changes to the format introduced in the previous series, though filming for the series involved travelling abroad to South Africa, the most distant place used for a production site in the programme's history. Both teams adopted names in the third task upon each having mixed genders, with the names Empower and Unison used for the rest of the contest. Of those who took part, Carina Lepore would become the eventual winner, going on to use her prize to set up an artisan bakehouse chain of retail units.

Performance chart
Key:
 * The candidate won this series of The Apprentice.
 * The candidate was the runner-up.
 * The candidate won as project manager on their team, for this task.
 * The candidate lost as project manager on their team, for this task.
 * The candidate was on the winning team for this task / they passed the Interviews stage.
 * The candidate was on the losing team for this task.
 * The candidate was brought to the final boardroom for this task.
 * The candidate was fired in this task.
 * The candidate lost as project manager for this task and was fired.

Controversy
 "Gandhi" comments

Following the broadcast of the second episode, a WhatsApp group used by the candidates to stay in contact was shut down. The action by producers was claimed by Kenna Ngoma, in an interview with Digital Spy, to be in response to a leaked message from the group made by Lottie Lion, in which she referenced Lubna Farhan as Gandhi. Her message led to several complaints against the programme over racism. However, Lion denied these were true and stated that her words had been "misinterpreted" and "taken out of context". The programme's staff gave no comment to the allegations, but did forward the matter to the BBC, who made clear that the behaviour of candidates who appear on the programme must be appropriate during and after filming, deeming that the comments by Lion on WhatsApp had been "wholly unacceptable" regardless of her excuse. After an investigation into further complaints by other candidates and her actions, both the BBC and the production staff made the decision to not have her appear in the final two episodes of You're Fired, after deciding her comments had been "unacceptable" on WhatsApp.

La Zingarella (Correggio)

La Zingarella (literally The Little Gypsy Girl) is a 49 x 37 cm oil-on-panel painting executed ca. 1516–17 by the Italian Renaissance painter Correggio. It shows the Rest on the Flight into Egypt, although (as also seen in works around the same time by Dosso Dossi ) it omits the figure of Saint Joseph. It is now in the Museo Nazionale di Capodimonte in Naples.

History
It is recorded in the 1587 handwritten inventory of Ranuccio I Farnese's collection in Parma as "a portrait [sic] of the Madonna in gypsy costume by the hand of Correggio, in a walnut frame and with a green cendale curtain". The first printed reference to it is in the 1625 Musaeum by Federico Borromeo, archbishop of Milan: "Work by Correggio and also another painting, popularly known as 'la Zingara'. It was also copied by one of the Carracci brothers and we saw the original in Parma so damaged and ruined that we suspected it would soon disappear. The rest of the beauty of the work was undermined by the same artist by violating the laws of decorum, attributing to an Egyptian thief the figure of the Virgin". A 1935 restoration did further damage to the original.

However, Borromeo was still fascinated by the work and asked the duke of Parma's permission for Bartolomeo Schedoni to make a copy of it. That copy came to Milan after 1610 and inspired several Lombard artists such as Fede Galizia and Francesco Cairo. Other copies had also already been made in the 16th century, one of which can probably be identified with the work mentioned as being in Rome in the inventory of the collection of Girolamo Garimberto from Parma: "Another small painting of the Madonna dressed in gypsy costume, resting in a forest glade on the way into Egypt with her little son in her arms, very beautiful".

The criteria is notability. Frisbees are notable because every person in this country knows what they are. The fact that the germ of their origin may have been conceived in school is exquisitely irrelevant.  --Fuhghettaboutit 21:33, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * In the section, "Meteorological history", it states early on, "On February 23, Météo-France's office on the island of Réunion (MFR) started motioning a tropical depression to the northeast of Madagascar. that developed a closed circulation, which received a rating of T1.5 on the Dvorak Scale..." There are a couple of things I want to be sure about, before I conclude this review. In the first place, is "started motioning a tropical depression" correct, or is the word supposed to be "monitoring"? Secondly, the lower case "that", following "northeast of Madagascar." is obviously incorrect, but is it supposed to be the start of a new sentence, or should the period following "Madagascar" be changed to a comma? Other than that, everything looks fine to me. Grinding, grinding, grinding... what are we finding, finding, finding... (talk) 02:34, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

TwinsthenewTrend

TwinsthenewTrend is a YouTube channel featuring twin brothers Tim and Fred Williams, who reside in Gary, Indiana, critiquing music videos. In 2020, the channel gained attention when their videos reacting to popular music, heard for the first time by the duo, became the subject of numerous news stories and publicity. Their reaction videos are titled with the prefix, "First Time Hearing."

A video showing their reaction to listening to the 1981 song "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins became famous worldwide, garnering more than 6 million views in three weeks. The publicity caused the song to reach #2 on the iTunes top songs sales for August 18 and 19, almost 40 years after its release. Industry publication Variety reported that the song was the fourth biggest selling song of the week ending August 8, up from number 185 the week before.

The brothers, who say they were raised primarily on gospel and Christian rap music, have reacted to a wide range of music, including rock, country, opera, rhythm and blues and Japanese music.

The YouTube channel's reviews have attracted the attention of the original singers of popular hits. The brothers' reaction to the song "Fallin'" by Alicia Keys, "Jolene" by Dolly Parton, and "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" by Annie Lennox prompted direct social media reactions from the artists.

Il était une fois... (album)

Il était une fois... (, lit. 'Once upon a time') is the third studio album by French rapper Black M, released on 13 September 2019. It consists of 17 tracks including 9 featurings with Bigflo & Oli, Heuss l'Enfoiré, Soolking, PLK, Koba LaD and Niro.

Genesis
In September 2018, Black M announced on social networks that he was preparing his third album, which should be released in September 2019 and be accompanied by a tour. He released the first single from this future album on 3 June 2019 which is called Bon (Prologue). On 13 September 2019, three years after the release of his previous album, Black M released his third studio album, Il était une fois...

Commercial reception
During its first week of operation, the disc sold only 5,600 copies, reaching 9,000 sales at the end of the third week. A disappointing performance for the artist in view of the sales of his previous albums. Despite good promotion and several appearances on television, the record was a real commercial failure.

Family Circle a singing group from the 1980's. Most articles I have read say they are from the '70's, but their first album was released in 1983 not 1973. The error was due to a miss print on the record labels. I worked for SkyDisc Records from 1978 to 1986. We noticed the miss print but it was after many copies were pressed and shipped to customers.
