Let s(d) denote the chance of survival as a function of the damage d.
Consider the probability that a read maps at exactly one position in the genome by chance, that is a function of the number of mapping positions (approximately the length of the genome, L, multiplied by the number of colors) and the number of potential different sequences (4 l, where l is the read length).
Rather, it all exists along a probabilistic spectrum, with a candidate's chance of winning primarily a function of the size of his lead, the time remaining until Election Day and the number of undecideds left in the electorate.
We created a multivariable model with baseline scores included as a predictor variable to ensure that any observed difference in change in test score from before to after the rotation between residents in the no order set period and residents in the order set period was not a function of chance differences in baseline scores between these groups.
In a fixed effects model, the fundamental assumption is that a single true effect size underlies all study results and that observed estimates vary only as a function of chance.
This 240 feet wide grand entrance also serves a security function of reducing the chance of a car bomb reaching the main entrance.
