31 The choice between searching for the least or most distant neighbours may depend on the experimental ( or even presentational ) needs because in the former case the algorithm finds more detailed and possibly informationally redundant order of probes , while in the latter case it finds a minimal set of probes connected by clones spanning large regions of the genome .
32 Say cost ( N , C ) is the cost of stepping from a node N to one of its children , C. Since the aim is to find a path , the space which the algorithm explores has nodes consisting of pairs
33 The input to the algorithm consists of
34 To do that , at each step , the algorithm constructs a planning sub-task .
35 When the algorithm begins , nodes are ’ scattered ’ randomly or evenly across a space described by the values of their weights w .
36 It is given before the algorithm begins .
37 The algorithm begins with a few small clusters , and it enlarges them and creates new clusters as it is presented with more data .
38 The algorithm begins :
39 If the algorithm begins with an empty grammar , then this recorded sequence of ’ top symbols ’ is simply the original input text . )
40 The modification to the algorithm assigns values to each element within the transition window , not just to the final element of the transition .
41 Thus , the algorithm searches a space in which each node is a pair : ( N , LOp )
42 The initial choice of strings may be random , but the algorithm works better if some of the ones it starts with are varied but fairly sensible .
43 The algorithm works by progressively updating a label D[u] assigned to each vertex u until D[u] becomes equal to the shortest path length from s to u .
44 If all such letters are found , the algorithm checks whether the resulting string is a word ( i.e. the end-of-word flag is set at the tree-node reached by the search ) .
45 When the algorithm starts with an empty grammar , the only symbols it has are those in the text .
46 The algorithm includes an extra variable called LR , for ’ Last Rule ’ , which is set to the rule which generated the current state N.
47 Maybe P and Q and R behave alike , but there may be times when the algorithm folds a set { P , Q , R } where , say , Q sometimes occurs in a context which never contains P or R. The algorithm looks for any context which contains some of X 's children but not the others .
48 Whenever a new OR symbol X is folded , the algorithm modifies every AND production which contains an alternative for X. In the right hand side of each such production , it replaces every occurrence of P or Q or R or … by X. Thus , the production
49 For this reason , the algorithm needs to scan backward as well as forward , and therefore takes twice as long as the simple algorithm .
50 I had acquired his confidence , which I believe I still retain , but for a number of reasons which were quasi-political we drifted apart towards the end of his second premiership , and although we have remained on friendly terms , the intimacy has long vanished .
51 In his socially approved role as witch-finder , the witch-doctor receives clients , listens carefully to their problems and in the divining sessions points to their probable origin .
52 In the same fashion , if the witch-doctor offers advice which turns out to be wrong , you write him off as a quack and change your doctor .
53 That is , if the same grammatical tag is found more than once in a position it is necessary only to know that the tag occurs in that position and the best scores associated with that tag .
54 The porter fetches it every morning . ’
55 The porter says : ‘ Be on your way .
56 The porter stops a couple of paces on and says , ‘ Paul . ’
57 She would be well and truly mystified by the sight of an elderly king who needs to be helped into his chair one minute , but can swing his cane around like a golf stick the next , and even more flummoxed by the depiction of a world in which the porter has closed circuit television , but the method of killing has n't changed a jot .
58 The porter has a kilt poking out from under his jacket , and Macduff is stuck with wearing a raincoat on top of his dinner suit for the whole show .
59 When he returns for his payment she shows him another body , claiming the porter has not done the job asked of him .
60 This third body is disposed of , but as the porter returns he encounters the hunchback husband who he supposes to be the corpse returning yet one more time .
