Manual Sizing In Latex

Latex is not giving us freedom of manual text font sizing. But there is a command which can be useful to us for manual sizing the text in latex.



Sometimes the question is raised how to get bigger font sizes than the standard LaTeX command \Huge provides (see: font sizes).
It can easily done by using the \fontsize command followed by \selectfont. If unusual sizes are used the fix-cm package should be loaded.


\fontsize{36}{42}\selectfont


Don't forget to use the \textbackslash selectfont command to activate the new font size. The second argument of the \fontsize command is the interlinear space and should have about additional 20% of the first value.


\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\usepackage{fix-cm}
\begin{document}
\fontsize{60}{70}\selectfont Pushpkant Yadav
\end{document}

Place Figure in Multicols Latex

The following, inserted into the preamble, defines two new environments, tablehere andfigurehere, which insert tables and figures inline with the column text.
% Figures within a column...
\makeatletter
\newenvironment{tablehere}
{\def\@captype{table}}
{}
\newenvironment{figurehere}
{\def\@captype{figure}}
{}
\makeatother
In addition to this, you'll probably need to scale graphics to the column width. This can be achieved with the \resizebox command inside a figure or our new figurehereenvironment. For example,
\begin{figurehere}
\centering
\resizebox{\columnwidth}{!}{\includegraphics{gf-graphs.eps}}
\caption{\label{gf-graphs}Graph showing applied RF frequency against magnetic field from the sweep coils, the gradient of the lines reveals information about $g_f$ for each isotope. The left gradient, corresponding to \chem{^{85}{Rb}} is $7.73 \times 10^9 (\pm 1.5 \times 10^8)$.  The right gradient, corresponding to \chem{^{87}{Rb}}, is $5.24 \times 10^9 (\pm 6.00 \times 10^7)$ }
\end{figurehere}

Fastest Folder Copy Vb.Net









  For making a fastest copier window 7 comes with robocopy, stands for the robust copy, is very fast copier than the other one. But the main problem with the robocopy is that it only works with command line interface.
  Here is solution of this epic problem. We are here with a full GUI robocopier. All you have to do is just follow the below procedure and make your own folder copier.

1. Make a windows form Project in vb.net 2010 and name it "Folder Copy"
2. Change the name of form from "form1.vb" to "FolderCopy.vb"
3. Add Two TextBoxes named as "SourceText" & "DestText"
4. Add a Button and Name it as "CopyBtn"
5. In the coding window make a function as below, for checking whether another copy is running or not.

    Public Function IsProcessRunning(ByVal name As String) As Boolean
        For Each cls As Process In Process.GetProcesses()
            If cls.ProcessName.StartsWith(name) Then
                Return True
            End If
        Next
        Return False
    End Function

6. Add a subroutine for disable and enable the application textboxes and buttons so that no one can change any thing in b/w by mistake.



    Public Sub enable_me(ByVal stat As Boolean)
        If stat = True Then
            CopyBtn.Text = "Copy"
            CopyBtn.Enabled = True
            SourceText.Enabled = True
            DestText.Enabled = True
        Else
            CopyBtn.Text = "Copying"
            CopyBtn.Enabled = False
            SourceText.Enabled = False
            DestText.Enabled = False
        End If
    End Sub


7. Make a global string variable to hold the current path of application.


    Dim own_path As String = Application.StartupPath


8. In the CopyBtn_Click event type the following code:



  Private Sub CopyBtn_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
                                            ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CopyBtn.Click


        Dim robo As StreamWriter
        Dim robo_text As String = vbNullString




        robo = New StreamWriter(own_path + "\robo.bat")


        robo_text = "@echo off" +
                    vbNewLine +
                    "robocopy /e /R:1 /W:1 " +
                    SourceText.Text + " " +
                    DestText.Text +
                    vbNewLine


        robo.Write(robo_text)
        robo.Close()


        'Shell(own_path + "\robo.bat", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus)


        Process.Start(own_path + "\robo.bat", AppWinStyle.MinimizedNoFocus)
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000)




        While (IsProcessRunning("Robocopy") = True)
            Application.DoEvents()
            enable_me(False)
        End While
        enable_me(True)


    End Sub


9. In the Form Closing event type the following code:



    Private Sub FolderCopy_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object,
                     ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs)
                              Handles Me.FormClosing
       
         Dim del As StreamWriter


        If File.Exists(own_path + "\robo.bat") Then


            del = New StreamWriter(own_path + "\d.bat")


            del.Write("@echo off" + vbNewLine +
                            "del robo.bat" + vbNewLine +
                             "del d.bat")
            del.Close()
            'Process.Start(own_path + "\d.bat", AppWinStyle.MaximizedFocus)
            Shell(own_path + "\d.bat", AppWinStyle.MaximizedFocus)
        End If
        MsgBox("Thank you For Using the Folder Copy" + vbNewLine + "Pushpkant Yadav")
    End Sub


10. In form load event type the following code:



    Private Sub FolderCopy_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object,
                  ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        DestText.Text = Application.StartupPath
       
        While (IsProcessRunning("Robocopy") = True)
            Application.DoEvents()
            enable_me(False)
        End While
        enable_me(True)


    End Sub


that is all, now run your application, copy the path of folder of source and destination with double quotes and press copy button the application will make a batch file and copy all the files from source folder to destination folder. Remember robocopy can't copy individual files.  So never try to copy single files without the folder.


if all the above work has been done correctly the final code will look like:







'copy all files from one folder to another




Imports System.IO


Public Class FolderCopy


    Dim own_path As String = Application.StartupPath


    Private Sub CopyBtn_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
                              ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CopyBtn.Click


        Dim robo As StreamWriter
        Dim robo_text As String = vbNullString




        robo = New StreamWriter(own_path + "\robo.bat")


        robo_text = "@echo off" +
                    vbNewLine +
                    "robocopy /e /R:1 /W:1 " +
                    SourceText.Text + " " +
                    DestText.Text +
                    vbNewLine


        robo.Write(robo_text)
        robo.Close()


        'Shell(own_path + "\robo.bat", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus)


        Process.Start(own_path + "\robo.bat", AppWinStyle.MinimizedNoFocus)
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000)




        While (IsProcessRunning("Robocopy") = True)
            Application.DoEvents()
            enable_me(False)
        End While
        enable_me(True)


    End Sub

Construction:



Incandescent light bulbs consist of a glass enclosure (the envelope, or bulb) with a filament of tungsten wire inside the bulb, through which an electric current is passed. Contact wires and a base with two (or more) conductors provide electrical connections to the filament. Incandescent light bulbs usually contain a stem or glass mount anchored to the bulb's base that allows the electrical contacts to run through the envelope without gas/air leaks. Small wires embedded in the stem in turn support the filament and/or its lead wires. The bulb is filled with an inert gas such as argon to reduce evaporation and prevent oxidation of the filament.
An electric current heats the filament to typically 2,000 to 3,300 K (3,140 to 5,480 °F)), well below tungsten's melting point of 3,695 K (6,191 °F). Filament temperatures depend on the filament type, shape, size, and amount of current drawn. The heated filament emits light that approximates a continuous spectrum. The useful part of the emitted energy is visible light, but most energy is given off as heat in the near-infrared wavelengths.
Three-way light bulbs have two filaments and three conducting contacts in their bases. The filaments share a common ground, and can be lit separately or together. Common wattages include 30–70–100, 50–100–150, and 100–200–300, with the first two numbers referring to the individual filaments, and the third giving the combined wattage.
While most light bulbs have clear or frosted glass, other kinds are also produced, including the various colors used for Christmas tree lights and other decorative lighting. Neodymium-containing glass is sometimes used to provide a more natural-appearing light.




Many arrangements of electrical contacts are used. Large lamps may have a screw base (one or more contacts at the tip, one at the shell) or a bayonet base (one or more contacts on the base, shell used as a contact or used only as a mechanical support). Some tubular lamps have an electrical contact at either end. Miniature lamps may have a wedge base and wire contacts, and some automotive and special purpose lamps have screw terminals for connection to wires. Contacts in the lamp socket allow the electric current to pass through the base to the filament. Power ratings for incandescent light bulbs range from about 0.1 watt to about 10,000 watts.
The glass bulb of a general service lamp can reach temperatures between 200 and 260 °C (392 and 500 °F). Lamps intended for high power operation or used for heating purposes will have envelopes made of hard glass or fused quartz.

I Networks: Network Theorems: Thevenin's Theorem



Statement of Thevenin's Theorem:

A general statement of Thevenin's Theorem is that any linear active network consisting of independent and or dependent voltage and current source and linear bilateral network element can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source in series with a resistance, the voltage source is being the open circuited voltage across the open circuited load terminals and the resistance being the internal resistance of the source network looking through the open circuited load terminals. 

or we can say that

Any two terminal bilateral linear d.c. circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source and a series resistor.

The theorem was first discovered by German scientist Hermann von Helmholtz in 1853, but was then rediscovered in 1883 by French telegraph engineer Léon Charles Thévenin (1857–1926).


Steps for Solving a Network Utilizing Thevenin's Theorem:


I. Remove the load resistance Rl and find the open circuit voltage Voc across the open circuited load terminals.
II. Deactivate the constant sources ( for voltage source, remove it by internal resistance which is usually zero, and for current source remove it by internal resistance which is usually infinite, so voltage source is shorted and current source is opened ) of the source side looking through the open circuited load terminals. Let this resistance be Rth.
III. Obtain Thevenin's equivalent circuit by placing Rth in series with Voc.
IV. Reconnect Rl across the load terminals.

The Load current I  can be given as:
Voc/(Rth+Rl)
