05. Star Notary as ERC-721
# Star Notary as ERC - 721
In this section, we will discuss how to implement the ERC-721 interface. Once we implement the functions required for the interface, we will implement unit tests in Javascript and Solidity with the help of Truffle.
We'll do this in 4 steps throughout this concept.
- Step 1: ERC-721 Basics
- Step 2: Build out the Functions
- Step 3: Transfer Logic
- Step 4: Set Approval Method
Each step is laid out below in more detail. You can find all of the code written throughout these videos at the bottom of the page.
Step 1: ERC-721 Basics
In this section, you'll get started with the basics of implementing an ERC-721 token. Follow along using the ERC-721 Interface Definition for the video below.
C4L3 04.1.1 SC Part 6.1 Of Coding Series
Step 2: Build out the Functions
Now that you've gotten up and running with ERC-721, you'll need to implement some logic to the token functions. In the next video, we'll do exactly that!
C4L3 04.1.2 SC Part 6.2 Of Coding Series
Step 3: Transfer Logic
The next step in building out our ERC-721 token is to build out the transfer logic. The following video walks through each of the steps needed to do that.
C4L3 04.1.3 SC Part 6.3 Of Coding Series
Step 4: Set Approval Method
Finally, we'll add in functionality that gives permissions for an operator to transfer all your tokens. We'll implement this functionality in the next video using the set approval method.
C4L3 04.1.4 SC Part 6.4 Of Coding Series
## Resources
# Code
In this section, we added 3 new files:
- ERC721.sol - This is a standard description, and a copy of the interface definition.
- ERC721Token.sol - This contract is our implementation of the ERC721 interface.
- ERC721TokenTest.js - This file contains the tests for the ERC721Token.sol contract.
Code for each file is shown below.

Finger Jam
For the final Game Design (
LMC 4725), we were given a theme that we had to design a multi-player game around. Our theme for Finger Jam was humor. Our main inspiration for this game came from
Unfair Mario. We wanted to learn more about the interaction between humor and frustration. So, for Finger Jam we put some obvious elements of humor with the music and imagery, but we also added elements that made aspects of the game impossible.
The source code can be viewed
here.

Dear Friend, I know this letter may beat your imagination, as we have no previous correspondence. Iam contacting you to see if I can confide in you. To introduce my self, I am Mr Ahmed Ibrahim Tarlor. the son of the late former Angolian Diamond Merchant, so now I will like to do this transaction with you as some one who have been into production. My father the late Diamond Merchant made the sum of $15.7 USD in cash. I want to invest this money in your country with your assistance. This money in question has been in the security company since my fathers death until this moment. I am confused on how to handle this huge amount of money and also what to do with it as I don't have any one to confide in, here in Ouagadougou Burkina-Faso. May I there fore use this medium to request from you if you will be disposed enough to help me keep this huge amount of money in your country or any other place of your choice. I intend to invest this money on any profitable business venture. I will give you 35% of the total money for assisting me. For the confirmation of your willingness to assist me reply with your telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. Best Regards, MR.TANKO USMAN 00226-76-50-56-27 _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Psalm 87
A psalm of the sons of Korah; a song.
1 The Lord's city is established on the holy mountains.
2 Yahweh loves the gates of Zion
more than all the tents of Jacob.
3 Glorious things are said of you, city of God. Selah
4 I mention Rahab and Babylon to my followers.
See, there are Philistia, and Tyre, along with Ethiopia.
This one was born there.
5 Of Zion it will be said, "Each of these was born in her;
and the Most High himself will establish her."
6 Yahweh notes as he registers the peoples,
"This one was born there."
Selah
7 So also the singers and the dancers say,
"All my springs of water are in you."

Hannah's Prayer
1 And Hannah prayed and said,
“My heart exults in the LORD;
my strength is exalted in the LORD.
My mouth derides my enemies,
because I rejoice in your salvation.
2 “There is none holy like the LORD;
there is none besides you;
there is no rock like our God.
3 Talk no more so very proudly,
let not arrogance come from your mouth;
for the LORD is a God of knowledge,
and by him actions are weighed.
4 The bows of the mighty are broken,
but the feeble bind on strength.
5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger.
The barren has borne seven,
but she who has many children is forlorn.
6 The LORD kills and brings to life;
he brings down to Sheol and raises up.
7 The LORD makes poor and makes rich;
he brings low and he exalts.
8 He raises up the poor from the dust;
he lifts the needy from the ash heap
to make them sit with princes
and inherit a seat of honor.
For the pillars of the earth are the LORD's,
and on them he has set the world.
9 “He will guard the feet of his faithful ones,
but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness,
for not by might shall a man prevail.
10 The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces;
against them he will thunder in heaven.
The LORD will judge the ends of the earth;
he will give strength to his king
and exalt the power of his anointed.”
11 Then Elkanah went home to Ramah. And the boy ministered to the LORD in the presence of Eli the priest.
Eli's Worthless Sons
12 Now the sons of Eli were worthless men. They did not know the LORD.
13 The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant would come, while the meat was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand,
14 and he would thrust it into the pan or kettle or cauldron or pot. All that the fork brought up the priest would take for himself. This is what they did at Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
15 Moreover, before the fat was burned, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, “Give meat for the priest to roast, for he will not accept boiled meat from you but only raw.”
16 And if the man said to him, “Let them burn the fat first, and then take as much as you wish,” he would say, “No, you must give it now, and if not, I will take it by force.”
17 Thus the sin of the young men was very great in the sight of the LORD, for the men treated the offering of the LORD with contempt.
18 Samuel was ministering before the LORD, a boy clothed with a linen ephod.
19 And his mother used to make for him a little robe and take it to him each year when she went up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Then Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say, “May the LORD give you children by this woman for the petition she asked of the LORD.” So then they would return to their home.
21 Indeed the LORD visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. And the young man Samuel grew in the presence of the LORD.
Eli Rebukes His Sons
22 Now Eli was very old, and he kept hearing all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with the women who were serving at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
23 And he said to them, “Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all the people.
24 No, my sons; it is no good report that I hear the people of the LORD spreading abroad.
25 If someone sins against a man, God will mediate for him, but if someone sins against the LORD, who can intercede for him?” But they would not listen to the voice of their father, for it was the will of the LORD to put them to death.
26 Now the young man Samuel continued to grow both in stature and in favor with the LORD and also with man.
The LORD Rejects Eli's Household
27 And there came a man of God to Eli and said to him, “Thus the LORD has said, ‘Did I indeed reveal myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt subject to the house of Pharaoh?
28 Did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me?   ’ ”

In the previous vignette mash common baseline, we estimate the change in some quantity computed in multiple conditions over a common control condition. However, there might be no common control condition in a study. In this case, we define the reference condition as the mean over different conditions. Deviation in any condition is defined as a difference in the quantity over the mean. We want to estimate the change in some quantity computed in multiple conditions over their mean.
For example, we measure the gene expression under multiple conditions. We want to estimate the change in expression in multiple conditions over their mean.
As in the mash common baseline vignette, we include the additional burden of comparing all conditions to the same reference condition. To deal with these additional correlations, mashr allows the user to specify the reference condition using mash_update_data
with ref = 'mean'
, after setting up the data in mash_set_data
.
generate_data = function(n, p, V, Utrue, err_sd=0.01, pi=NULL){
if (is.null(pi)) {
pi = rep(1, length(Utrue)) # default to uniform distribution
}
assertthat::are_equal(length(pi), length(Utrue))
for (j in 1:length(Utrue)) {
assertthat::are_equal(dim(Utrue[j]), c(p, p))
}
pi <- pi / sum(pi) # normalize pi to sum to one
which_U <- sample(1:length(pi), n, replace=TRUE, prob=pi)
Beta = matrix(0, nrow=n, ncol=p)
for(i in 1:n){
Beta[i,] = mvrnorm(1, rep(0, p), Utrue[[which_U[i]]])
}
Shat = matrix(err_sd, nrow=n, ncol=p, byrow = TRUE)
E = mvrnorm(n, rep(0, p), Shat[1,]^2 * V)
Bhat = Beta + E
return(list(B = Beta, Bhat=Bhat, Shat = Shat, whichU = which_U))

5. Format Guide¶
Because the module depends heavily on regular expressions, please follow the guide on how to define your equations carefully, or the module might break. In a nutshell, open up your Python console and wrap the equation you want to solve in a string with the format similar to the example:
>>> eq = "max(600*a, 400) + min(200*a, 500) + min(100, 300*a) + 50*a = 600"
Before we delve into explanations in details, let’s define a few terms:
value_term: the value you want to solve your equation for, here it’s
600
.minmax_term: it is what it means in English, for example,
max(600*a, 400)
.cons_var_term: terms with constants times variables, such as
50*a
.
Note
The module does not support constants on the left-hand side of the equation just yet, which will be added in future versions.
In brief, what you can do include:
put the variable either in the 1st or 2nd place inside the parenthesis. For example, either
min(200, 300*a)
ormin(300*a, 200)
is fine.use min and max together in one equation.
use + and/or -.
have constants in front of min or max, such as
2*min(400, 400a)
.have any space between each component.
have leading 0s before variable, such as
min(0*a, 200)
.have constants inside min or max, such as
min(20, 30)
.
What you can’t do include:
use
==
instead of=
.for the
cons_var_term
, have variables before constants, such asa*50
instead of50*a
.missing any necessary parenthesis.
use other operators instead of + or -.
missing any necessary
*
operator for each variable.put any constants on the left-hand side of the equation. For example, it would break if you define your equation as:
>>> eq = "20 + max(600*a, 400) + min(100, 300*a) + 50*a = 600"
Do me a favor, if you have any constants, subtract it from the right-hand side and rearrange your terms before using the module.


Before we learn the rules for making tacit forms, you should understand why you are going to the trouble of learning how to write programs that hide their operands. First, they are extraordinarily compact. The explicit definitions we have written so far are laconically terse by the standards of most computer languages, but they will seem positively windy compared to the tacit forms. Second, the shorter definitions are easier to combine with other verbs and with the modifiers that add so much power to J expressions. Third, the tacit definitions are parsed when they are defined, in contrast to explicit definitions, in which each line is parsed as it is executed; we reduce interpretive overhead by using tacit forms. Fourth, in learning to write tacit verbs you are also learning to write tacit adverbs and conjunctions, with which you will be able to craft your own private toolkit of modifiers that you can use to combine verbs in ways that are useful to your application.
In what follows, Nx will represent a noun, Vx a verb, Cx a conjunction, and Ax an adverb, where x is any suffix.
We begin by observing that the rules we have learned so far give no meaning to some combinations of words. Consider three verbs in a row, with no noun to operate on, as in the sequence
(V0 V1 V2)
where each Vn represents a verb--an example would be ((+/) % #) . Without some special rules, we have no way to interpret this sequence. Such sequences of words that cannot immediately be executed to produce a result are called trains. Examples are C0 C1 A2, V0 V1, and the V0 V1 V2 we are considering now.
Understanding tacit programming will largely be a matter of understanding how trains are parsed and executed. You will learn that (V0 V1 V2) is a new verb that can be applied to noun operands, and you will learn how it applies to nouns. To begin with, observe that there is no reason that (V0 V1 V2) N should be the same as V0 V1 V2 N which as we know is (V0 (V1 (V2 N))) .
The meaning J assigns to (V0 V1 V2) Ny is:
(V0 V1 V2) Ny is (V0 Ny) V1 (V2 Ny)
This substitution goes by the name monadic fork. I think finding this definition was a stroke of brilliance in the design of J. An example of the use of the fork is:
(+/ % #) 4 6 8
6
which calculates the mean of the operand. It is processed using the substitution rule above as
(+/ 4 6 8) % (# 4 6 8)
6
which divides the sum of the items in the list by the number of items in the list. You can use fndisplay to help yourself see how the substitutions are made:
defverbs 'plus"0 div"0 tally'
(plus/ div tally) 4 6 8
+---------------------------------+
|(4 plus 6 plus 8) div tally 4 6 8|
+---------------------------------+
The sequence (+/ % #) is a verb. It can therefore be assigned to a name:
mean =: (+/ % #)
or
mean =: +/ % #
and then used by that name:
mean 12 18 24
18
Impressive, isn't it? With just 4 symbols we described a program to take the mean of a list of numbers (or a list of lists...). The beauty and the power are in the way the operands and verbs are connected; that's what we'll be learning in the next few chapters.
At this point you may be impressed with the economy of the monadic fork but a bit confused about the details. For example, we said that (V0 V1 V2) Ny is not the same as V0 V1 V2 Ny and yet we said that mean =: (+/ % #) is the same as mean =: +/ % # . How can that be? If we use the version without parentheses, why doesn't mean 12 18 24 get evaluated like
+/ % # 12 18 24
0.333333
?
I could give you a simple rule of thumb, namely that you can always imagine an extra set of parentheses around any value assigned to a name. That would be true but misleading, because it would encourage you to think that the values of defined names are substituted into a sentence before the sentence is executed. That gets it backwards: in reality the operands are supplied to the stored definitions, which include compounds defined in the sentence. The execution of a J sentence is a subtle alternation between creating definitions and executing them. We will take the next couple of chapters to give you a thorough understanding of execution, after which we will return to see what magic we can work with forks and their brethren.


Every scheduled function takes a dt parameter, giving the actual "wall clock" time that passed since the previous invocation (or the time the function was scheduled, if it's the first period). This parameter can be used for numerical integration.
For example, a non-accelerating particle with velocity v will travel some distance over a change in time dt. This distance is calculated as v * dt. Similarly, a particle under constant acceleration a will have a change in velocity of a * dt.
The following example demonstrates a simple way to move a sprite across the screen at exactly 10 pixels per second:
sprite = pyglet.sprite.Sprite(image) sprite.dx = 10.0 def update(dt): sprite.x += sprite.dx * dt pyglet.clock.schedule_interval(update, 1/60.0) # update at 60Hz
This is a robust technique for simple animation, as the velocity will remain constant regardless of the speed or load of the computer.
Some examples of other common animation variables are given in the table below.

ETYMOLOGY(Supplied by a Late Consumptive Usher to a Grammar School)
The pale Usher- threadbare in coat, heart, body, and brain; I see him now.  He loved to dust his old grammars; it somehow mildly reminded him of his mortality.
“While you take in hand to school others, and to teach them by what name a whale-fish is to be called in our tongue leaving out, through ignorance, the letter H, which almost alone maketh the signification of the word, you deliver that which is not true.” HACKLUYT
“WHALE. * * * Sw. and Dan. hval. This animal is named from roundness or rolling; for in Dan. hvalt is arched or vaulted.” WEBSTER’S DICTIONARY
“WHALE. * * * It is more immediately from the Dut. and Ger. Wallen; A.S. Walw-ian, to roll, to wallow.” RICHARDSON’S DICTIONARY
KETOS, Greek. CETUS, Latin. WHOEL, Anglo-Saxon. HVALT, Danish. WAL, Dutch. HWAL, Swedish. WHALE, Icelandic. WHALE, English. BALEINE, French. BALLENA, Spanish. PEKEE-NUEE-NUEE, Fegee. PEKEE-NUEE-NUEE, Erromangoan.
EXTRACTS(Supplied by a Sub-Sub-Librarian)
It will be seen that this mere painstaking burrower and grub-worm of a poor devil of a Sub-Sub appears to have gone through the long Vaticans and street-stalls of the earth, picking up whatever random allusions to whales he could anyways find in any book whatsoever, sacred or profane. therefore you must not, in every case at least, take the higgledy-piggledy whale statements, however authentic, in these extracts, for veritable gospel cetology. Far from it. As touching the ancient authors generally, as well as the poets here appearing, these extracts are solely valuable or entertaining, as affording a glancing bird’s eye view of what has been promiscuously said, thought, fancied, and sung of Leviathan, by many nations and generations, including our own.
So fare thee well, poor devil of a Sub-Sub, whose commentator I am. Thou belongest to that hopeless, sallow tribe which no wine of this world will ever warm; and for whom even Pale Sherry would be too rosy-strong; but with whom one sometimes loves to sit, and feel poor-devilish, too; and grow convivial upon tears; and say to them bluntly, with full eyes and empty glasses, and in not altogether unpleasant sadness- Give it up, Sub-Subs! For by how much more pains ye take to please the world, by so much the more shall ye for ever go thankless! Would that I could clear out Hampton Court and the Tuileries for ye! But gulp down your tears and hie aloft to the royal-mast with your hearts; for your friends who have gone before are clearing out the seven-storied heavens, and making refugees of long pampered Gabriel, Michael, and Raphael, against your coming. Here ye strike but splintered hearts together- there, ye shall strike unsplinterable glasses!

“In the free element beneath me swam, Floundered and dived, in play, in chace, in battle, Fishes of every color, form, and kind; Which language cannot paint, and mariner Had never seen; from dread Leviathan To insect millions peopling every wave: Gather’d in shoals immense, like floating islands, Led by mysterious instincts through that waste And trackless region, though on every side Assaulted by voracious enemies, Whales, sharks, and monsters, arm’d in front or jaw, With swords, saws, spiral horns, or hooked fangs.” MONTGOMERY’S WORLD BEFORE THE FLOOD.

“A mariner sat in the shrouds one night, The wind was piping free; Now bright, now dimmed, was the moonlight pale, And the phospher gleamed in the wake of the whale, As it floundered in the sea.” ELIZABETH OAKES SMITH. “The quantity of line withdrawn from the boats engaged in the capture of this one whale, amounted altogether to 10,440 yards or nearly six English miles.” * *
“Sometimes the whale shakes its tremendous tail in the air, which, cracking like a whip, resounds to the distance of three or four miles.” SCORESBY.
“Mad with the agonies he endures from these fresh attacks, the infuriated Sperm Whale rolls over and over; he rears his enormous head, and with wide expanded jaws snaps at everything around him; he rushes at the boats with his head; they are propelled before him with vast swiftness, and sometimes utterly destroyed.
* It is a matter of great astonishment that the consideration of the habits of so interesting, and, in a commercial point of view, so important an animal (as the Sperm Whale) should have been so entirely neglected, or should have excited so little curiosity among the numerous, and many of them competent observers, that of late years, must have possessed the most abundant and the most convenient opportunities of witnessing their habitudes.” THOMAS BEALE’S HISTORY OF THE SPERM WHALE, 1839.
“The Cachalot” (Sperm Whale) “is not only better armed than the True Whale” (Greenland or Right Whale) “in possessing a formidable weapon at either extremity of its body, but also more frequently displays a disposition to employ these weapons offensively and in manner at once so artful, bold, and mischievous, as to lead to its being regarded as the most dangerous to attack of all the known species of the whale tribe.” FREDERICK DEBELL BENNETT’S WHALING VOYAGE ROUND THE GLOBE, 1840.

The detective and Passepartout met often on deck after this interview, though Fix was reserved, and did not attempt to induce his companion to divulge any more facts concerning Mr. Fogg. He caught a glimpse of that mysterious gentleman once or twice; but Mr. Fogg usually confined himself to the cabin, where he kept Aouda company, or, according to his inveterate habit, took a hand at whist.
Passepartout began very seriously to conjecture what strange chance kept Fix still on the route that his master was pursuing. It was really worth considering why this certainly very amiable and complacent person, whom he had first met at Suez, had then encountered on board the Mongolia, who disembarked at Bombay, which he announced as his destination, and now turned up so unexpectedly on the Rangoon, was following Mr. Fogg's tracks step by step. What was Fix's object? Passepartout was ready to wager his Indian shoes—which he religiously preserved—that Fix would also leave Hong Kong at the same time with them, and probably on the same steamer.
Passepartout might have cudgelled his brain for a century without hitting upon the real object which the detective had in view. He never could have imagined that Phileas Fogg was being tracked as a robber around the globe. But, as it is in human nature to attempt the solution of every mystery, Passepartout suddenly discovered an explanation of Fix's movements, which was in truth far from unreasonable. Fix, he thought, could only be an agent of Mr. Fogg's friends at the Reform Club, sent to follow him up, and to ascertain that he really went round the world as had been agreed upon.
"It's clear!" repeated the worthy servant to himself, proud of his shrewdness. "He's a spy sent to keep us in view! That isn't quite the thing, either, to be spying Mr. Fogg, who is so honourable a man! Ah, gentlemen of the Reform, this shall cost you dear!"
Passepartout, enchanted with his discovery, resolved to say nothing to his master, lest he should be justly offended at this mistrust on the part of his adversaries. But he determined to chaff Fix, when he had the chance, with mysterious allusions, which, however, need not betray his real suspicions.
During the afternoon of Wednesday, 30th October, the Rangoon entered the Strait of Malacca, which separates the peninsula of that name from Sumatra. The mountainous and craggy islets intercepted the beauties of this noble island from the view of the travellers. The Rangoon weighed anchor at Singapore the next day at four a.m., to receive coal, having gained half a day on the prescribed time of her arrival. Phileas Fogg noted this gain in his journal, and then, accompanied by Aouda, who betrayed a desire for a walk on shore, disembarked.
Fix, who suspected Mr. Fogg's every movement, followed them cautiously, without being himself perceived; while Passepartout, laughing in his sleeve at Fix's manoeuvres, went about his usual errands.
The island of Singapore is not imposing in aspect, for there are no mountains; yet its appearance is not without attractions. It is a park checkered by pleasant highways and avenues. A handsome carriage, drawn by a sleek pair of New Holland horses, carried Phileas Fogg and Aouda into the midst of rows of palms with brilliant foliage, and of clove–trees, whereof the cloves form the heart of a half–open flower. Pepper plants replaced the prickly hedges of European fields; sago–bushes, large ferns with gorgeous branches, varied the aspect of this tropical clime; while nutmeg–trees in full foliage filled the air with a penetrating perfume. Agile and grinning bands of monkeys skipped about in the trees, nor were tigers wanting in the jungles.
After a drive of two hours through the country, Aouda and Mr. Fogg returned to the town, which is a vast collection of heavy–looking, irregular houses, surrounded by charming gardens rich in tropical fruits and plants; and at ten o'clock they re–embarked, closely followed by the detective, who had kept them constantly in sight.
Passepartout, who had been purchasing several dozen mangoes—a fruit as large as good–sized apples, of a dark–brown colour outside and a bright red within, and whose white pulp, melting in the mouth, affords gourmands a delicious sensation—was waiting for them on deck. He was only too glad to offer some mangoes to Aouda, who thanked him very gracefully for them.
At eleven o'clock the Rangoon rode out of Singapore harbour, and in a few hours the high mountains of Malacca, with their forests, inhabited by the most beautifully–furred tigers in the world, were lost to view. Singapore is distant some thirteen hundred miles from the island of Hong Kong, which is a little English colony near the Chinese coast. Phileas Fogg hoped to accomplish the journey in six days, so as to be in time for the steamer which would leave on the 6th of November for Yokohama, the principal Japanese port.
The Rangoon had a large quota of passengers, many of whom disembarked at Singapore, among them a number of Indians, Ceylonese, Chinamen, Malays, and Portuguese, mostly second–class travellers.
The weather, which had hitherto been fine, changed with the last quarter of the moon. The sea rolled heavily, and the wind at intervals rose almost to a storm, but happily blew from the south–west, and thus aided the steamer's progress. The captain as often as possible put up his sails, and under the double action of steam and sail the vessel made rapid progress along the coasts of Anam and Cochin China. Owing to the defective construction of the Rangoon, however, unusual precautions became necessary in unfavourable weather; but the loss of time which resulted from this cause, while it nearly drove Passepartout out of his senses, did not seem to affect his master in the least. Passepartout blamed the captain, the engineer, and the crew, and consigned all who were connected with the ship to the land where the pepper grows. Perhaps the thought of the gas, which was remorselessly burning at his expense in Saville Row, had something to do with his hot impatience.
"You are in a great hurry, then," said Fix to him one day, "to reach Hong Kong?"
"A very great hurry!"
"Mr. Fogg, I suppose, is anxious to catch the steamer for Yokohama?"
"Terribly anxious."
"You believe in this journey around the world, then?"
"Absolutely. Don't you, Mr. Fix?"
"I? I don't believe a word of it."
"You're a sly dog!" said Passepartout, winking at him.
This expression rather disturbed Fix, without his knowing why. Had the Frenchman guessed his real purpose? He knew not what to think. But how could Passepartout have discovered that he was a detective? Yet, in speaking as he did, the man evidently meant more than he expressed.
Passepartout went still further the next day; he could not hold his tongue.
"Mr. Fix," said he, in a bantering tone, "shall we be so unfortunate as to lose you when we get to Hong Kong?"
"Why," responded Fix, a little embarrassed, "I don't know; perhaps—"
"Ah, if you would only go on with us! An agent of the Peninsular Company, you know, can't stop on the way! You were only going to Bombay, and here you are in China. America is not far off, and from America to Europe is only a step."
Fix looked intently at his companion, whose countenance was as serene as possible, and laughed with him. But Passepartout persisted in chaffing him by asking him if he made much by his present occupation.
"Yes, and no," returned Fix; "there is good and bad luck in such things. But you must understand that I don't travel at my own expense."
"Oh, I am quite sure of that!" cried Passepartout, laughing heartily.
Fix, fairly puzzled, descended to his cabin and gave himself up to his reflections. He was evidently suspected; somehow or other the Frenchman had found out that he was a detective. But had he told his master? What part was he playing in all this: was he an accomplice or not? Was the game, then, up? Fix spent several hours turning these things over in his mind, sometimes thinking that all was lost, then persuading himself that Fogg was ignorant of his presence, and then undecided what course it was best to take.
Nevertheless, he preserved his coolness of mind, and at last resolved to deal plainly with Passepartout. If he did not find it practicable to arrest Fogg at Hong Kong, and if Fogg made preparations to leave that last foothold of English territory, he, Fix, would tell Passepartout all. Either the servant was the accomplice of his master, and in this case the master knew of his operations, and he should fail; or else the servant knew nothing about the robbery, and then his interest would be to abandon the robber.
Such was the situation between Fix and Passepartout. Meanwhile Phileas Fogg moved about above them in the most majestic and unconscious indifference. He was passing methodically in his orbit around the world, regardless of the lesser stars which gravitated around him. Yet there was near by what the astronomers would call a disturbing star, which might have produced an agitation in this gentleman's heart. But no! the charms of Aouda failed to act, to Passepartout's great surprise; and the disturbances, if they existed, would have been more difficult to calculate than those of Uranus which led to the discovery of Neptune.
It was every day an increasing wonder to Passepartout, who read in Aouda's eyes the depths of her gratitude to his master. Phileas Fogg, though brave and gallant, must be, he thought, quite heartless. As to the sentiment which this journey might have awakened in him, there was clearly no trace of such a thing; while poor Passepartout existed in perpetual reveries.
One day he was leaning on the railing of the engine–room, and was observing the engine, when a sudden pitch of the steamer threw the screw out of the water. The steam came hissing out of the valves; and this made Passepartout indignant.
"The valves are not sufficiently charged!" he exclaimed. "We are not going. Oh, these English! If this was an American craft, we should blow up, perhaps, but we should at all events go faster!"

The appearance of a lattice display depends partly on the
“theme” active when the display is plotted (see
trellis.device
for details). This theme is used to
obtain defaults for various graphical parameters, and in particular,
the auto.key
argument works on the premise that the same source
is used for both the actual graphical encoding and the legend. The
easiest way to specify custom settings for a particular display is to
use the par.settings
argument, which is usually tedious to
construct as it is a nested list. The simpleTheme
function can
be used in such situations as a wrapper that generates a suitable list
given parameters in simple name=value
form, with the nesting
made implicit. This is less flexible, but straightforward and
sufficient in most situations.

Forecast: Light winds with mostly dry conditions to persist through Wednesday
by Guy HagiHONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - Light winds will continue through the first half of the week as a front stalls and diminishes near Kauai.
Outside of a few clouds and showers setting up over interior areas each afternoon due to sea breezes, mostly dry and stable conditions are anticipated.
Increasing moisture associated with another front that is forecast to move into the area will bring increasing rainfall chances and the potential for gusty northeast winds by the end of the week.
A new northwest swell now spreading into the area is forecast to product surf above the advisory threshold along north- and west-facing shores. As this swell subsides on Wednesday, a new very large northwest swell is expected.
Surf from that swell will produce surf well above warning levels along north- and west-facing shores of the smaller islands.
The swell is expected to gradually subside through Friday night.
