FORD

The etymology of ford refers us to the Latin language: vadus . The term is used to name the site of a watercourse that, thanks to its shallow depth and stable bottom, allows passage .

Ford

For example: "We have been walking for more than two hours and we still have not found any fords: I don't know how we are going to cross the stream" , "The route crosses a shallow ford, which you can pass without problems" , "The truck got stuck in a ford ” .

The fords can be of natural origin or be developed by man to allow transfers . There are fords in streams and rivers that can be crossed on foot, on horseback, or on a vehicle (car, truck, truck, motorcycle, etc.).

The concept, however, also has other meanings. Called ford to the work that is done on public roads to allow vehicles to access a garage or other space : "I am waiting for the municipality to grant me permission to make the ford so I can start using the garage" , "Sir, it is forbidden to park next to this ford as vehicles enter and exit here . "

Specifically, once the person in question has the necessary authorization to be able to undertake what is the construction of the ford, then they must perform another function. You will have to indicate by means of the corresponding mark or sign that it is a ford for which the city council is being paid and that, therefore, it is absolutely forbidden to park the vehicle in that place.

Thus, for example, if someone, for whatever reason, decides to park their car in the ford, whoever is paying for it may contact the authorities directly so that they can appear at the place and proceed to take him away by Crane.

The sector of the sea where boats can anchor is also called a ford: "Let's find a ford to spend the night and then we will continue the trip" , "As soon as I find a ford, I will anchor the boat . "

In the same way, we cannot forget that there are different populations scattered all over the world that also use the term ford in their names. Specifically, among the most significant are the following:
-Vado. It is a Spanish hamlet that is located in the province of Palencia and that belongs to the municipality of Dehesa de Montejo. It has about 30 inhabitants, approximately according to the latest data collected, and offers the visitor several attractions. Specifically, among these are the Gothic Church of San Sebastián, its small spring, the anthropomorphic tombs found and the rock hermitage of San Vicente.
-Los Vados, which is a town that belongs to the municipality of Arenas (Málaga).
-Vado Real, Colombian population belonging to the municipality of Suaita. Its economy is fundamentally based on what is livestock and the cultivation of sugar cane and coffee.

According to the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ), ford is also the becoming that allows the development of something: "I promise you that I will give up to this matter as quickly as I can . "

Its creator, the programmer Phil Katz (founder of PKWARE ), had to face a lawsuit for the violation of copyright in the development of the format. The zip uses various compression algorithms and supports an encryption system that is based on a unique key.

Vassal is the one who, in ancient times, was obliged to pay fiefdom . It was the subject of a sovereign or any other type of supreme government , and it was linked to some lord (noble) through a bond of vassalage. The concept is typical of feudalism , a system of social organization that prevailed in western Europe between the 9th and 15th centuries . This society was based on the cultivation of the land by the serfs or vassals, who had to deliver part of their production to the lord (who, in turn, was loyal to a king). The vassal was the man who requested protection from a nobleman of superior rank (from the point of view of the social hierarchy) and who swore allegiance to him on his behalf. Both established a vassalage contract that implied mutual obligations.

The lord received part of the agricultural production in exch...

DISCRETE VARIABLE

The variables are symbols that can acquire different values and appear in formulas, algorithms, functions and propositions of mathematics and statistics. According to their particularities, they are classified differently. There are random variables , dependent variables , independent variables , variables qualitative , quantitative variables and continuous variables , among others. This time we will refer to the discrete variables . It is interesting to know the etymological origin of the two words that give shape to the term that now occupies us: -Variable derives from Latin, more precisely from “variabilis” which is the result of the sum of two elements of that language: the verb “variare ", Which can be translated as" change of appearance ", and the suffix" -able ", which is used to indicate" possibility ". -Discrete, on the other hand, also comes from Latin. In your case, it is the result of the union of two other components: th...
