Does the C plus plus in computer language stand for Cobalt?
C was made in the 70s. Smalltalk was made in the 70s. Squeak was made in 1996, Croquet in 1999, and cobalt in 2007C was the third in a progression of three languages named A, B, C, from what I heardA is actually BCPL I thinkBCPL B C C++ (P was taken for pascal p-code)
Can you install a hardwood floor over an existing hardwood floor?
I've done it many times. Make sure the original layer of wood is nailed tightly to the subfloor so that it doesn't squeak. Ideally you would go perpindicular to the original flooring, especially if it is Fir which has very loose milling. If you go the same direction as the Fir, you are married to the same vertical problem of movement that is inherent in that product. A layer of 30# felt helps reduce that movement problem. Most people want to lay it the same direction, because that asthetically looks the best, which is why they layed it that way in the first place. Summary: lots of nails in original floors to stabilize, 30# felt for movement if it's Fir
How does the size of a ideal mechanical advantage compares to the mechanical advantage?
This is because the actual mechanical advantage is the actual calculation found after dividing the effort force by the output force. Ideal mechanical advantage is what many people would call and estimate. When estimating mechanical advantage, the numbers are always rounded. This makes actual mechanical advantage less. Sources: Science teacher ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The answer above is incorrect. The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) is usually less than the mechanical advantage (MA) in a given machine because of the friction acting on the machine. There will always be some frictional resistance that increases the effort necessary to do the work.
How good is laminate flooring by dupont?
I installed Dupont Real Touch elite in our 13 x 12 dining room and I'm very pleased at the way it looks. It is a high-quality laminate with a medium-grade padding preattached to each plank. While this makes for ease of installation, it does prevent you from upgrading the padding because you cannot double up on padding layers. The seams are virtually invisible and the installation was extremely easy once you get the hang of handling the glueless click-lock planks. I was able to install it without damaging a single edge and the precision click-lock system functioned 100% for every plank. The Dupont material has an embossed grain which is matched to the pattern of the printed woodgrain. This gives it an authentic look of real wood. However, that authenticity varies greatly depending on the type of finish you choose, with some species looking distinctly plasticky. The distressed wood finishes and the more recent tile style finishes look extremely good. It is too early to comment on its longevity, because the dining room installation is only 2 years old. However, we have two rowdy boys, and they have not scratched it yet. We had a couple of parties on it, and I was happy to see that it stood up to stiletto heels and street shoes. I feel that it is very robust and will last many years. In contrast, the Bruce oak-plank flooring I installed in the famly room badly needs refinishing after only 5 years. I currently have 240 sq ft of this laminate stacked in my master bedroom acclimating (you must do this). In shopping around for laminate, I did not find a material that compared on price and quality. [Lowes has a very good deal on special orders - 20% off this week.] Some points to consider: * Our dining room is a simple layout - oblong with two open-pan passageways. All the trim and moulding was removed, and replaced with new non-wood materials. That is to say, it was an "ideal installation". It is MUCH harder to fit click-lock type laminates where you have many door frames to cope with. If you have facing doors or doors that are adjacent, you will need to remove at least one full door frame. I recommend that D-I-Yers avoid click-lock in such situations and use tap-and-glue. * You must prep the floor under the laminate. Screw down any loose flooring and fill/sand low spots with s floor filler compound. Do a "squeak test" by walking the floor. * It is worth covering bad subfloors with a rigid underlayment. This can even be useful if you want to level up the thinner laminates to an adjacent tile floor. The subfloors in my modern tract house are absolute junk, with problems such as board seams missing the underlying joists or nails missing joists. Even after fixing and patching the floor, I overlayed it with 3/8 OSB over rosin-coated paper (prevents squeaking) which is a dirt cheap solution to creating a nice flat surface. Make sure you staple that underlayment down with a fastener every 4"-6" (many fasteners per 8x4 sheet). * You must leave an expansion gap. Given this, it is almost always worth removing the baseboards so that the edge of the laminate goes under the baseboard for a clean finish. If you do not, you have to finish the floor edge with .5" quarter round. This makes it a pain to back up your furniture close to the wall. * Do not install the baseboard tightly against the floor in places where you walk close to the wall. It will creak or click as the floor moves under the base board. * Heavy furniture close to the wall will compress the foam underlayment, causing a slight gap at the baseboard. * I'm very handy with the tools, but I guess that this material is impossible to mend, unlike real wood or engineered wood floors. Hope this helps.
What is abstract data type for C Plus Plus examples?
An abstract data type (ADT) exists purely to provide a common interface to all the objects that may be derived from it, without providing the full implementation of that interface. It is a concept rather than an actual object.For instance, an Animal object is a fairly general class of object, while Cat and Dog are specific types of Animal. It does not make sense to allow users to create an instance of Animal, since it would impossible to provide an implementation for every type of animal that that class could possibly represent.For instance, all animals make a noise, so it makes sense for the Animal class to have a MakeNoise() method. But we cannot implement this method since the Animal class would have to determine what type of animal it actually was before it could produce the correct sound. Animals simply do not do this in real life: a dog does not ask itself whether it is a cat or a dog before deciding that it should bark rather than meow!So we declare Animal to be an ADT by making the MakeNoise() method pure-virtual. We can then derive a Cat object from our Animal ADT and implement the MakeNoise() method within the Cat object. We can do the same for the Dog class, a Mouse class, an Elephant class, and so on. Each specific object knows what sound it must make.Since all these specific classes are derived from a common ADT, the Animal class, we can create collections of animals, without regard to their specific type. When we call an animal's MakeNoise() method, a Cat object will meow while a Dog object will bark, the Mouse will squeak and the Elephant will trumpet. We've effectively called a general method but got a specific method instead, without having to work out which specific method to call.That is the essence of all ADTs; by creating a new data type from an ADT, we can provide a specific implementation for an already existing common interface. Clients of the ADT (such as a queue or stack) needn't know what data types it contains, nor what data types it could contain in the future because they already know the common interface of the ADT. If you decide you want a lion in your queue, derive one from the ADT and the client won't care: the MakeNoise() method will make the lion roar!

Why do mice sqeak?
Normally mice do not squeak. Normal mouse communication is far too high pitched for the human ear to hear. Mice do squeak when they're ill with respiratory infections. Sometimes they will squeak audibly for the rest of their lives. Baby mice will also squeak audibly if they are nursing from their mothers, scared, or hurt.

That usually means they are becoming flat. Also it could be something on your tire. Take it in and have it looked at.
Why does my car's wheels squeak when driving?
That could be the brake pad "squealers". They are designed to squeal when they are worn out. Time for a brake job.
Why Lexus RX 300 Squeak while driving and turning left?
Follow the steering column down to the floor, there you'll see a u-joint fitting with rubber bushings. Spray there with WD-40 and the squeak will go away.
