Baseball fielding positions

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Roles of Fielders

P: Pitcher (Position "number" 1). While the primary role of a pitcher is to pitch the ball, he must also be able to field his position. This consists of fielding ground balls and bunts up the middle of the diamond, and running to cover first base on any batted ball that pulls the first baseman out of position.
C: Catcher (2). He must catch, or at least block, all the pitches to prevent baserunners from advancing, in addition to preventing stolen bases with a strong throwing arm. He must also catch pop-ups into the foul territory behind the baseline, and tag out runners who are attempting to score, while blocking their access to home plate.
1B: First Base (3). The first baseman's job, in addition to fielding balls hit in his direction, is primarily to catch throws from the other infielders (2B, 3B and SS) in order to retire the batter and prevent him from getting on base. When a runner is on first base, the first baseman will tend to stand on or near the bag, holding the runner close to prevent the runner from stealing second base.
2B: Second Base (4). Second basemen have an important defensive role to field ground balls hit toward him and, if necessary start a double play. When the ball is hit to the shortstop, the second baseman will help "turn" a double play by stepping on second base, fielding the throw from SS, and throwing to first base, to retire both the batter, and the runner on first.
3B: Third Base (5). Third base is known as "The Hot Corner", since most right-handed hitters will tend to hit the ball hard in this direction. The third baseman must be able to field ground balls and throw strongly to first base, as well as cover fly balls in fair and foul territory.
SS: Short Stop (6). Shortstops, like the second baseman, must field ground balls and start or turn double plays. In addition, they need a stronger arm as the throw to first base is further from the shortstop side.
LF: Left Field (7), R & L CF: Right & Left Center Field (8), RF: Right Field (9). The role of the outfielders is to chase down and catch any ball hit into the outfield and, if necessary, make a rapid and accurate return throw, either to a base or to the "cut-off man", a infielder who has moved into a position specifically to make a relay throw.

Missing Persons
The number of missing people grew to estimates as high as over 6000 in the months following the attack, but steadily declined as stories were checked and duplicate entries removed. (See Timeline of WTC missing).
As of August 2002, there were approximately 90 people who were officially missing; that is, their remains had not been identified and no family members had requested a death certificate.
Detailed listing.
Survivors
The great majority of the over 40,000 people working at the World Trade Center at the time of the attack evacuated safely, including 18 who escaped from above the impact zone in the second tower hit. By 9/20/2001 6291 people, including rescue and recovery workers, had been treated for injuries.
Detailed listing.

Pentagon
The Pentagon reports 125 staffers killed or missing, with 121 remains recovered and identified, as of Sept. 11, 2002. At least one person died later as a result of wounds incurred.
The listing and memorial.

Missing Persons
The Pentagon reports 4 staffers missing. One passenger on the airliner which hit the Pentagon was also never identified.
Detailed listing.

Survivors
88 treated at hospital.
Detailed entry.

Victim legends
Due to the very large number of World Trade Center casualties and missing persons, victim legends were a common form of September 11, Terrorist Attack urban legends. These were tales of victims who did not exist, spread by word-of-mouth and the Internet. Official sites, such as http://www.september11victims.com, contain accurate entries and are trusted content. Because Wikipedia, and many other websites allowed freely adding victims, there were no doubt many obvious fake entries. Fake victims added to these lists were often simply missing at the time of the attacks, or actually survivors of the attacks.

Complexity classes P and NP

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Computational complexity theory is part of the theory of computation dealing with the resources required during computation to solve a given problem. The most common resources are time (how many steps does it take to solve a problem) and space (how much memory does it take to solve a problem).
In this theory, the class P consists of all those decision problems that can be solved on a deterministic sequential machine in an amount of time that is polynomial in the size of the input; the class NP consists of all those decision problems whose positive solutions can be verified in polynomial time given the right information, or equivalently, whose solution can be found in polynomial time on a non-deterministic machine. The biggest open question in theoretical computer science concerns the relationship between those two classes:
Is P = NP ?
Most people think that the answer is probably "no"; some people believe the question may be undecidable from the currently accepted axioms. A $1,000,000 prize has been offered for a correct solution.

If P = NP, P would encompass the NP and NP-Complete areas.
An important role in this discussion is played by the set of NP-complete problems (or NPC) which can be loosely described as those problems in NP that are the least likely to be in P. (See NP-complete for the exact definition.) Theoretical computer scientists believe this is how P, NP, and NPC currently exists amongst each other. The intersection of P and NPC equals the empty set.
In essence, the P = NP question asks: if positive solutions to a YES/NO problem can be verified quickly, can the answers also be computed quickly? Here is an example to get a feeling for the question. Given two large numbers X and Y, we might ask whether Y is a multiple of any integers between 1 and X, exclusive. For example, we might ask whether 69799 is a multiple of any integers between 1 and 250. The answer is YES, though it would take a fair amount of work to find it manually. On the other hand, if someone claims that the answer is YES because 223 is a divisor of 69799, then we can quickly check that with a single division. Verifying that a number is a divisor is much easier than finding the divisor in the first place. The information needed to verify a positive answer is also called a certificate. So we conclude that given the right certificates, positive answers to our problem can be verified quickly (i.e. in polynomial time) and that's why this problem is in NP. It is not known whether the problem is in P. The special case where X=Y was first shown to be in P in 2002 (see references for "PRIMES in P" below).
A decision problem is a problem that takes as input some string and requires as output either YES or NO. If there is an algorithm (say a Turing machine, or a LISP or Pascal program with unbounded memory) which is able to produce the correct answer for any input string of length n in at most n^k steps, where k is some constant independent of the input string, then we say that the problem can be solved in polynomial time and we place it in the class P. Intuitively, we think of the problems in P as those that can be solved reasonably fast.
Now suppose there is an algorithm A(w,C) which takes two arguments, a string w which is an input string to our decision problem, and a string C which is a "proposed certificate", and such that A produces a YES/NO answer in at most n^k steps (where n is the length of w and k doesn't depend on w). Suppose furthermore that
w is a YES instance of the decision problem if and only if there exists C such that A(w,C) returns YES.
Then we say that the problem can be solved in non-deterministic polynomial time and we place it in the class NP. We think of the algorithm A as a verifier of proposed certificates which runs reasonably fast. (Note that the abbreviation NP stands for "Non-deterministic Polynomial" and not for "Non-Polynomial".)
To attack the P = NP question, the concept of NP-completeness is very useful. Informally, the NP-complete problems are the "toughest" problems in NP in the sense that they are the ones most likely not to be in P. This means that if a single NP-complete problem could be shown to be in P, then it would follow that P = NP. Unfortunately, many important problems have been shown to be NP-complete and not a single fast algorithm for any of them is known.
The P = NP question has also been addressed using oracles.
Although we don't know whether P=NP, we do know of problems outside both P and NP. The problem of finding the best move in Chess or Go (on an n by n board) is EXPTIME-complete. This means it requires exponential time, and so is outside P and NP. The problem of deciding the truth of a statement in Presburger arithmetic is even harder. Fischer and Rabin proved in 1974 that every algorithm which decides the truth of Presburger statements has a runtime of at least 2^(2^(cn)) for some constant c. Here, n is the length of the Presburger statement. Hence, the problem is known to need more than exponential run time. Even more difficult are the undecidable problems, such as the halting problem. They cannot be solved in general given any amount of time.
All of the above discussion has assumed that P means "easy" and "not in P" means "hard". While this is a common and reasonably accurate assumption in complexity theory, it is not always true in practice, for several reasons:
It ignores constant factors. A problem that takes time 10¹⁰⁰⁰n is P (in fact, it's linear time), but is completely intractable in practice. A problem that takes time 10^-100002ⁿ is not P (in fact, it's exponential time), but is very tractable for values of n up into the thousands.
It ignores the size of the exponents. A problem with time n¹⁰⁰⁰ is P, yet intractable. A problem with time 2^n/1000 is not P, yet is tractable for n up into the thousands.
It only considers worst-case times. There might be a problem that arises in the real world. Most of the time, it can be solved in time n, but on very rare occasions you'll see an instance of the problem that takes time 2ⁿ. This problem might have an average time that is polynomial, but the worst case is exponential, so the problem wouldn't be in P.
It only considers deterministic solutions. There might be a problem that you can solve quickly if you accept a tiny error probability, but a guaranteed correct answer is much harder to get. The problem would not belong to P even though in practice it can be solved fast. This is in fact a common approach to attack NP-complete problems.
New computing models such as quantum computers, which also work probabilistically, may be able to quickly solve some problems not known to be in P.

No one knows whether polynomial-time algorithms exist for NP-complete languages. But if such algorithms do exist, we already know some of them! For example, the following algorithm correctly accepts an NP-complete language, but no one knows how long it takes in general. This is a polynomial-time algorithm if and only if P = NP.
   // Algorithm that accepts the NP-complete language SUBSET-SUM.
   //
   // This is a polynomial-time algorithm if and only if P=NP.
   //
   // "Polynomial-time" means it returns "YES" in polynomial time when 
   // the answer should be "YES", and runs forever when it's "NO".
   //
   // Input:  S = a finite set of integers
   // Output: "YES" if any subset of S adds up to 0.
   //         Otherwise, it runs forever with no output.
   // Note:  "Program number P" is the program you get by
   //         writing the integer P in binary, then
   //         considering that string of bits to be a 
   //         program.  Every possible program can be
   //         generated this way, though most do nothing
   //         because of syntax errors.  
   
   FOR N = 1...infinity
       FOR P = 1...N
           Run program number P for N steps with input S
           IF the program outputs a list of distinct integers
               AND the integers are all in S
               AND the integers sum to 0
           THEN
               OUTPUT "YES" and HALT
If P = NP, then this is a polynomial-time algorithm accepting an NP-Complete language. "Accepting" means it gives "YES" answers in polynomial time, but is allowed to run forever when the answer is "NO".
Perhaps we want to "solve" the SUBSET-SUM problem, rather than just "accept" the SUBSET-SUM language. That means we want it to always halt and return a "YES" or "NO" answer. Does any algorithm exist that can provably do this in polynomial time? No one knows. But if such algorithms do exist, then we already know some of them! Just replace the IF statement in the above algorithm with this:
           IF the program outputs a complete math proof
               AND each step of the proof is legal
               AND the conclusion is that S does (or does not) have a subset summing to 0
           THEN
               OUTPUT "YES" (or "NO" if that was proved) and HALT
