By its Chairman and Managing Director, Corporate Office, ICICI Bank Tower, Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai 400 051. 2.The Personnel Manager, HR Department, ICICI Bank Limited, 192, Anna Salai, Chennai - 600 002. ...Respondents WRIT PETITION filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India praying for the issuance of a Writ of Mandamus, directing the respondents to grant pension in accordance with the Regulation 36(2) read with Regulation 39 of the Bank of Madura Employees Pension Regulation, 1995 based on the 10 month average emoluments last drawn by the petitioners with attendant D.A. And arrears of commutation from the date of retirement of each of the petitioner's. For Petitioner :Mr.Balan Harida For R2 :Mr.AL.Somayaji, Senior Counsel for M/s. Aiyar & Dolia O R D E R
Whether a writ under Article 226 of the Constitution is maintainable against the private banker is the first and foremost issue to be decided in this case.
2.00 If the answer is yes then the merits and de- merits of the case is to be considered. If the answer is no, the writ petition is liable to be dismissed and the prayer of the petitioner is to be rejected.
3.00 Sri Balan Haridas, learned counsel appeared for the petitioner and Sri AL.Somayaji, learned senior counsel appeared for the second respondent. Both sides advanced forceful and useful arguments.
4.00 Before I proceed to discuss the various points raised by both sides, I may have to note the law on the subject and the legal principles merging there from since settled by the Apex Court in identical cases, then to apply the same in the facts and circumstances of this case, in order to ascertain the writ jurisdiction of this Court in a case of this nature.
4:01 However for the purpose of understanding it would be sufficient to refer the material facts which are almost admitted. The material facts are not in dispute.
5.00 The facts to the extent necessary are: The banker is the respondent and it is ICICI Bank Limited. The petitioners are the employees of the Bank. The petitioners were originally employed with Bank of Madura and promoted as Officers and were working in the same capacity. The Bank of Madura introduced a Pension Scheme in the year 1995 and the petitioners opted for the same. As per Regulation 36 of the Bank of Madura Employees Pension Regulations, if an employee retiring in accordance with the provisions of the service rules or settlement, after completing a qualifying service of not less than 33 years, the amount of basic pension shall be calculated at 50% of average emoluments.
5:01. While so Bank of Madura Limited amalgamated with ICICI Bank in the year 2001. As per Clause 6 of the Scheme of Amalgamation, the existing privileges/service conditions enjoyed by the employees of Bank of Baroda will be protected under the Amalgamation Scheme. After the merger, the Officers' Association of which the petitioners are also members have entered into a new compensation structure and pursuant to the agreement dated 29.06.2001, all the officers started drawing new pay scale and it was specifically agreed that till such time the new scheme is made applicable on mutual acceptance, the existing scheme would continue. At this stage, it is necessary to clarify that the existing scheme means the scheme which was in existence with Bank of Madura Employees' Pension Regulations and the Memorandum of Settlement dated 27.10.1999.
5:02. The forceful contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that even as per the agreement under the Heading "Provident Fund/Pension Fund" it was specifically agreed that till such time new scheme is made applicable on mutual acceptance, the existing scheme would continue. It was never contemplated in the Agreement, dated 29.06.2001, which is a wage revision agreement that the pension will be paid based on the last drawn pay without applicable Dearness Allowance. It is also stated that as per clause 2(iii) of the Memorandum of Settlement dated 27.10.1999, it is clarified that the pension amount shall be calculated based on the average emoluments i.e. the average of pay drawn by an employee during the last ten months of his service as per Regulation 39 and subsequent wage revisions has made it explicitly clear that the wage revision will be taken note of while granting pension to the retired employees.
5:03. The interesting and powerful contention of the respondent bank is that the pension scheme in the bank was introduced in the year 1995 by Bank of Madura and its basic pay including stagnation increments, if any and all other allowances ranked for Provident Fund in addition to Dearness Relief calculated up to Index No.1148 points in the All India Consumer Price Index and it is worked out as per the Industry Level agreement, dated 14.12.1999 between Indian Banks Association and the organizations of Bank Officers, which was given effect to in Bank of Madura, as per the decision of their Board dated 21.01.2000 and after merger with ICICI Bank on 10.03.200. As per the scheme of Amalgamation, the existing service conditions as applicable to the employees of Bank of Baroda will be allowed to continue in the following terms: "All the employees of the Transferor Bank in service on the effective date shall become the employees of the Transferee Bank on such date without any break or interruption of service and on emoluments which are not less favourable than those subsisting with reference to Transferor Bank as on the effective date."
5:04. It is also an admitted fact that after amalagation, the respondent bank revised the compensation structure for the officers of the Transferor bank effective from 01.07.2001, in terms of agreement dated 29.06.2001 with the Officers' Association of the petitioners, where in it was agreed after negotiations that the erstwhile Officers of Bank of Madura would get monthly salary and Dearness Allowance would be merged in Basic Salary.
5:05. The contention of the respondents bank is that by virtue of the said agreement, the pay structure of the petitioners was revised with the conversion of the variable Dearness Allowance into Fixed Dearness Allowance of which 25% was merged with the basic pay and remaining 75% of the Fixed Dearness Allowances was to be merged with basic salary in 3 equal annual instalments on 01.07.2002, 01.07.2003, 01.07.2004.
5:06. It is further contended that in terms of another agreement dated 10.09.2002 with the said Association, the ICICI Bank merged the balance Fixed Dearness Allowance with the Basic Salary with effect from 01.10.2002 onwards. Therefore the powerful argument of the Banker is that the concept of Dearness Allowance ceased to be existence in the respondent bank.
5:07. It is further contended that in respect of other employes of ICICI Bank there is no component of Dearness Allowance right from its inception and there is no scheme for payment of pension for its employees. It is stated that the alignment of compensation of salary structure was made by the respondent bank for the benefit of the employees of Bank of Madura and as agreed in the terms of the said agreement, the benefit of pension for the officers who opted for pension shall continue as per the Pension Scheme existing as on the date of the merger of Bank of Madura with ICICI Bank.
6.00 Therefore the case of the petitioner is that the pension was contemplated based on the last drawn pay together with Dearness Allowance is not correct. It is an admitted fact that at the time of revision of the compensation structure, there was an agreement to continue the existing pension scheme for the time being and there was no mutual settlement reached with reference to the pension issue. Hence pension is continued to be paid as per the existing pension scheme to the pension officers and the petitioners are granted pension, which includes basic pension and applicable Dearness Relief even though the petitioners are not entitled for the same.
6:01. The specific case of the banker is that the petitioners are being paid pension including Dearness Relief over and above what they are entitled for.
6:02. At this stage, it is relevant to note other important facts. An Early Retirement Option - 2003 was introduced in July 2003 for all its employees of the bank and it provided for payment of immediate pension to those eligible employees as per the regulations of Bank of Madura who opted for Early Retirement Option, irrespective of the fact whether they have reached the age of superannuation, as otherwise they have been eligible to receive only on reaching the age of superannuation.
6:03. It is further submitted by the respondent Bank that the modalities for payment of pension to the pensioners being that the last drawn 10 months average basic pay which includes FPA, PQA, Spl.Pay if any is taken into account and then arrived at the notional basic pay for the purpose of pension for pension basic. However, with regard to the payment of Provident Fund to the employees, the last drawn pay of the employee was taken into account as per the industry level practice.
6:04. The contention of the petitioners is that the basic pension should be worked out as per the said revised salary which does not have a component of Dearness Allowance and it should be worked out on the 10 months average emoluments last drawn by the petitioners. According to the respondent it is a fallacious argument. The reason given by the bank is that in that case the petitioners would be entitled for fixed pension calculated on the last drawn emoluments only as on the date of their respective date of retirement and they would not be eligible for Dearness Relief on such monthly fixed pension. There is considered force in this argument.
6:05. The case of the petitioners is that they made representations to the banker as they have accepted the earlier retirement option and retire from service and the bank having relieved them has a positive obligation under the pension regulation of the scheme by paying the petitioner the pension in terms of the regulation of Bank of Madura.
6:06. The reply from the banker is that after amalgamation and while amending Pension Regulations of Bank of Madura, Sub clause (v) was specifically introduced for employees who opted for pension under the said Pension Regulations and who opted for retirement under the Early Retirement Option - 2003 as enumerated in Regulation 2 (zea) and who have completed 20 years of service in the bank shall be eligible for pension from the date of retirement and the payment of pension shall commence from the very next month. It is significant to note that while amending Regulation 35 and by introducing Sub-clause (v), no corresponding amendment was made to Regulation 38. With regard to the entitlement for Dearness Relief under Regulation 38 under the Early Retirement Option - 2003 of Bank of Baroda demands the employees for opting Early Retirement Option 2003 would be entitled to receive only the basic pension. Thus the employees who had opted for retirement under the Early Retirement Option - 2003 are not entitled for Dearness Relief under Regulation 35.
7.00 The material and relevant facts which are high lighted above are sufficient to answer the two points involved in this case.
7:01 The first point is of jurisdiction and the second one is on the merits of the matters.
8.00 Maintainability:
8:01 This point is directly covered through a Judgment of Apex Court in //Federal Bank Ltd. Vs. Sagar Thomas and Others //(2003) 10 SCC 733//. Through an elaborate and detailed discussion the Apex Court has clarified whether the writ petition is maintainable against the private banker. It was held that :
"A writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India may not be maintainable against (i) the State (Government); (ii) an authority; (iii) a statutory body; (iv) an instrumentality or agency of the State; (v) a company which is financed and owned by the State;
(vi) a private body run substantially on State funding; (vii) a private body discharging a public duty or positive obligation of a public nature; and (viii) a person or a body under a liability to discharge any function under any statute, to compel it to perform such statutory function. It is no doubt true that a mandamus can be issued to any person or authority performing public duty, owning positive obligation to the affected party."
8:02 On consideration of number of decisions on the point, the Apex Court found the above principles which may be relevant for coming to a conclusion whether any public element is involved or not in the activities of the private body. The Apex Court also held that private companies would normally not be amenable to the writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution. But in certain circumstances a writ may be issued to such private bodies or persons as there may be statutes which need to be complied with by all concerned including private companies. The Apex Court has also given example on such statutes, there are certain legislations like the Industrial Disputes Act , the Factories Act or for maintaining proper environment , say the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 or the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 etc. or statutes of the like nature which fasten certain duties and responsibilities statutorily upon such private bodies which they are bound to comply with. If they violate such a statutory provision a writ would certainly be issued for compliance with those provisions. The Apex Court also held that if a private employer dispenses with the service of its employee in violation of the provisions contained under the Industrial Disputes Act, in innumerable cases the High Court has interfered and issued a writ to private bodies and companies in that regard. But the difficulty in issuing a writ may arise where there may not be any non-compliance with or violation of any statutory provision by the private body. In that event a writ may not be issued at all. Other remedies, as may be available, may have to be resorted to.
8:03 While laying law of the land, the Apex Court also noted that merely because Reserve Bank of India lays the banking policy in the interest of the banking system or in the interest of monetary stability or sound economic growth having due regard to the interests of the depositors does not meant hat private companies carrying on the business or commercial activity of banking, discharge any public function or public duty. These are all regulatory measures applicable to those carrying on commercial activity in banking and these companies are to act according to these provisions failing which certain consequences follow. It is further stated that a private company carrying on banking business as a scheduled bank cannot be turned as an institution or a company carrying on any statutory or public duty and their obligation cannot be enforced through issuance of a writ under Article 226.
8:04 In the above case a disciplinary action has been taken against one of the employees of the Federal Bank, and the services of the employee with the Bank was terminated. The action of the bank was challenged by the respondent by filing a writ petition. The Apex Court held that the employee is not trying to enforce any statutory duty on the part of the Bank.
8:05. It is a direct decision of the Supreme Court of India with regard to maintainability of writ petition, clarifies that a writ cannot be issued where there is no non-compliance or no violation of statutory provisions by the bank.
8:06. There is no doubt with regard to the status of ICICI Bank which is a company registered under Indian Companies Act, 1956 and it is not owned by the Central or State Government. In writ petitions W.P.14176 of 1996 and W.P.5184 of 1997, this Court following the decision of the Division Bench reported in 1995 1 LLM 677 held that the respondent bank is not amenable to writ jurisdiction, while so, the decision of another Division Bench reported in 1998 1 LLM 235 held that there is no universal or general rule that no writ petition can lie against a private person or a private institution.
8:07 That aspect has been clarified by the Apex Court through a Judgement reported in Federal Bank Ltd. Vs. Sagar Thomas and Others (2003) 10 SCC 733.
9.00 PENSION :
9:01 Article 311(2) of the Constitution of India does not deal with the question of pension at all. It deals with three situations namely (i) Dismissal (ii) Removal and (iii) Reduction in rank.
9:02 The earlier view of the Supreme Court of India that the right of the employee to receive pension is property is under Article 31(1) and the employee had not power to withhold the same and the said claim is also property under Article 19(1)(f) and it is not saved by sub- article (5) of Article 19. Therefore denying the right of employee to receive pension affects the fundamental right of the petitioner under Articles 19(1)(f) and 31(1) of the constitution and the writ petition under Article 32 is maintainable 9:03 But the latest view taken by the Supreme Court of India says that pension is no more a property. No doubt pension is not a bounty and it is not depending upon the sweet will and pleasure of the employer and the employee is entitled to receive the same, similarly the employer cannot refuse the pension and cannot interfere with the pension without giving reasonable opportunity to the employee. Pension can normally be treated as a matter of right when there is no law covering but when there is a specific law and regulations the pension is to be paid to the employee but subject to the review and alteration by the employer. Therefore the employer has to properly consider the claim of the employee for payment of pension strictly in accordance with the law or the regulations. A right to receive the pension is a condition of service. Whenever an employer exercising its discretion and introducing new schemes or regulations it should be based upon good faith and due care and for the benefit of the employee. With radical change and developing social notion and social security, pension is not ex-gratia payment but a payment for the services rendered for long and in old age, the employee should not be left in lurch and reduced to destitution and pensury. Therefore the payment of pension is, therefore, a right and it does not depend upon the sweet will and discretion of the employer. The right of pension and its payment cannot be denied and the payment of pension is covered by the rules made on that behalf.
9:04 What is the qualifying service for for calculating the pension and how the pension is to be paid etc are governed by regulations. There will be revised pension rules depends upon the facts and circumstances of each case, the amount of pension to be received by the retired employee is to be decided. Therefore the concept of pension is now well known and has been clarified by the Supreme Court time and again. Pension is not a charity or bounty nor is it gratuitous payment solely dependent on the whim or sweet will of the employer and it is earned for rendering long service and is often described as deferred portion of compensation for past service.
9:05. In the instant case, the banker is not denying the payment of pension. The specific contention of the banker is that clause (v) was introduced while amending the existing pension regulations and they came into effect from 01.07.2003 and it is strictly in accordance with the amendments.
9:06. The banker is paying the pension.
Similarly the employee who had opted for Early Retirement Option - 2003 are not entitled for Dearness Relief under Regulation 38.
9:07. In Union of India V. P.N. Menon AIR (1994) SC 2221, it is observed as follows:
"The scheme to merge a part of the dearness allowance for purpose of fixing the dearness allowance was evolved and was linked with the average cost of living index at 272 which fell on 30th April 1977. In this background it cannot be said that the date 30th September 1977 was picked out in an arbitrary or irrational manner, without proper application of mind. The option given to employees who retire on or after 30th September 1977 but not later than 30th April 1979 to exercise an option to get their pension and death-cum-retirement gratuity calculated by excluding the element of dearness pay as indicated in the Office Memorandum or to get it included in their pension and death-cum-retirement gratuity was not an exercise to create a class within class. The decision having a nexus with the price index level at 272, which it reached on 30th September, 1977 was just and valid."
9:08. Similarly in Union of India V. B.Rama Murthy (1995) 2 SCC 430, it is clearly held that:
"Government of India's Office Memorandum dated 25.05.1979 introduced that half of the dearness pay was treated as pay to compute retirement benefits. Earlier only 3/10th of 10 months' average pay was computed for pension under the impugned order in para (iii) of the Office memorandum dated 25.05.1979 and the computation would be 5/10th of it. In other words, the Office Memorandum is more beneficial rather than earlier computation. The Supreme Court held that the Rule is not arbitrary and there is no invidious discrimination in the classification of the pensioners who retired on different dates and in computation of the pension for different periods."
9:09. In Union of India Vs. Brig. P.K.Dutta 1995 (1) SLR 342, it is held that the:
"Pension Regulations are non-statutory in character. However in the same Judgment, it is held that the pensionary benefits are provided for and are payable only under these regulations and can, therefore, be withheld or forfeited under, and as provided by those very regulations."
9:10. Therefore it is clear that the Pension Regulations are not statutory in character.
9:11 While so in Federal Bank Ltd. Vs. Sagar Thoma and Other (2003) 10 SCC 733 it has been clearly held that writ cannot be issued where there is no non-compliance or violation of any statutory provision.
9:12. In the instant case, there is no statutory obligation on the part of the respondent banker to pay the pension as demanded by the petitioners. The banker is paying the pension as per the rules and regulations. The petitioners are demanding at a different rate.
9:13 There is no statutory obligation on the banker to pay the same as demanded by the petitioners which is not strictly as per the regulations. The reasons have already been highlighted in the preceding paragraphs. The earlier pension regulations were amended and Sub-clause (v) was introduced and while amending Regulation 35 by introducing Sub Clause (v), no corresponding amendment was made to Regulation 38 and it means the employees opted for Early Retirement Option 2003, would be entitled to receive only the basic pension and there is no statutory right on those employees who have opted for retirement under the Early Retirement Option - 2003 to claim Dearness Relief under Regulation
38. 9:14. In V.M.Gadre Vs. M.G.Diwan AIR (1996) SC 1534, Supreme Court has held that:
"The Court cannot substitute a totally new pension-plan in place of an existing one as each service and each institution has its own service conditions and merely because in another service the pension plan is petter it cannot be adopted and substituted in a different service. In any service, a pension plan is only one component of the basket of service conditions for the service and it cannot be viewed in isolation and where comparison is permissible all the conditions have to be compared because in one service weightage may have been given to fixation of pension whereas in another the benefit may have been given to house rent or maximum medical expenses."
9:15. In N.Venkatramani Vs. Indian Bank and another 2005 WLR 820, a Division Bench of this Court at Para 12 observed that: the right of the employee to receive pension depends upon the interpretation of Regulation 18 vis-a-vis the amended Regulation 28, by which, the proviso came to be added with effect from 01.09.2000. It is a case dealing with broken service and the facts are not identical. However the Division Bench has clearly held that the right of the pensioner depends upon the interpretation of the regulation.
9:16. The specific plea of the respondents is that they are paying the pension to the petitioners under the Early Retirement Option - 2003 and their demand to pay pension pension as they like is not a statutory right conferred on them and the writ petition is not maintainable is with substance and with some force. Apart from that on merits also Sri. Somayajji learned senior counsel appearing for the respondents was able to convince that the employees who have opted for Earlier Retirement Option - 2003 are entitled to receive only basic pension and are not entitled for Dearness Relief as provided under the Regulation 38 in view of the amended regulation Sub- clause (v).
10:00 Thus both on the merits as well as on the point of jurisdiction, the petitioners have no case.
11.00 For all the foregoing reasons, I find no merits in the writ petition and hence the writ petition is dismissed. No Costs.

Update (2016-12-22): I am no longer supporting this library for all the reasons I address in my post The Dark Side of Polyfilling CSS. If you choose to use this library, please make sure you read the post, so you fully understand the challenges and limitations involved in writing CSS polyfills.
Polyfill.js is a library designed to make writing CSS polyfills much, much easier. It's an abstraction library that takes care of the boilerplate, so you can focus on what your polyfill actually does.
For most CSS polyfills, the hardest part is not the polyfill logic itself, it's the boring stuff, the stuff that the browser is supposed to do for you: downloading the CSS, parsing it, and finding the parts you care about. If the CSS contains media queries, you need to deal with them, detect when they apply, and manually listen for changes.
Furthermore, on the Web today, most polyfills exist isolated from each other, which means they all repeat the same expensive tasks. Polyfill.js solves this problem. It provides a common API for Polyfill authors to hook in to, so all the hard work happens only once at most. The stylesheets are downloaded, parsed, and stored in a cache so additional requests don't do double work.
Development — 28KB, with comments
Production — 3.6KB, minified
Full Project — ZIP format
Polyfill.js has been tested in all modern browsers and supports Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Internet Explorer 7+.
Polyfill.js makes writing your own CSS Polyfill easy by breaking it down into the following three steps:
It doesn't really matter where you put it, as long as it appears after the stylesheet(s) containing the rules you want to polyfill.
<script src="path/to/polyfill.js"></script>
You create a new instance of the Polyfill object by passing in one or more keywords representing the CSS features you want to polyfill. The keywords can be declaration keywords (property-value pairs) or selector keywords.
The following expression creates an instance to polyfill the :local-link
CSS pseudo-class:
var localLinkPolyfill = Polyfill({ selectors: [":local-link"] })
Once you have your polyfill instance, you simply register two callbacks: doMatched()
and undoUnmatched()
. When the page first loads and Polyfill.js has done all its work behind the scenes, the doMatched()
callback is invoked and is passed a list of CSS rules that contain the specified keywords and match the current media.
If the media values change (usually by resizing the browser window) and new rules match, the doMatched()
callback will be invoked again, each time being passed the newly matched rules.
If the media value changes and some rules no longer match, the undoUnmatched()
callback is invoked and passed a list of rules that previously matched but no longer do.
"Sticky" is a new CSS position value to allow elements to stick in place only after a specified scroll position is met. This is most commonly used for navigation elements to stick in place after you start scrolling down the page.
Local links (:local-link
) is a new CSS pseudo-class for styling anchor tags that point to URLs within the current domain.
The Polyfill.js API consists of three public objects: Polyfill, Ruleset, and Rule. Only Polyfill is accessible in the global scope, the others are passed as arguments to callback functions.
Polyfill(options)
Create a new polyfill object. (Note: the new
operator is optional.)
keywords
: {Object} An object containing the CSS keywords to search the stylesheets for. The keywords object may consist of selector keywords and/or declaration keywords. (Note: if both are present a rule will be considered a match if it contains either selector keywords or declaration keywords.)
selectors
: {Array} a list of strings to match against CSS selectors.declarations
: {Array} a list of strings to match against CSS declarations (property-value pairs). The format of the string must be prop:value
. The string may optionally include an asterisk which will match any number of characters, e.g. display:*flex
will match vendor prefixes. (Note: whitespace on either side of the colon is not significant.)exclude
: {Array} a list of link element ID attributes. If the exclude option is present, all stylesheets but the ones with those IDs will be downloaded. include
: {Array} a list of link element ID attributes. If the include option is present, only those stylesheets will be downloaded. (Note: exclude
and include
cannot be used together)returns {Polyfill} the newly created instance
// create a polyfill for some CSS pseudo-classes
var p1 = Polyfill({
exclude: ["third-party-css"],
keywords: {
selectors: [":local-link", ":nth-of-type"],
declarations: ["*border-radius:*", "position:sticky", "display:*flex"]
}
})
// create a polyfill for the flex display property
var p2 = Polyfill({
include: ["flexbox", "box"],
keywords: {
declarations: ["display:*flex"]
}
})
// create a polyfill by only passing keywords
var p3 = Polyfill({
declarations: ["filter:*"]
})
.doMatched(callback)
Register a callback to be invoked whenever new rules match the passed keywords. This happens as soon as the page is loaded as well as when media changes. The callback is invoked with a Ruleset object that contains all of the newly matched CSS rules.
callback {Function}: the function called
returns {Polyfill} the current Polyfill instance
polyfill.doMatched(function(rules) {
// do somthing...
})
.undoUnmatched(callback)
Register a callback function to be invoked whenever previously matched rules no longer match. This could be because the media changed or the polyfill was destroyed.
callback {Function}: A callback function. Each invocation is passed a Ruleset object which contains all of the newly matched CSS rules.
returns {Polyfill} the current Polyfill instance
polyfill.undoUnmatched(function(rules) {
// do somthing...
})
.getMatches()
Fetch all the CSS rules that match the current media. (Note: rules that are not in a media block always match.)
returns {Ruleset} a Ruleset object containing all of the currently matched rules.
var matches = polyfill.getMatches()
.destroy()
Destroy the polyfill instance by removing any media listeners and invoking the undoMatched
callback.
returns {undefined}
polyfill.destroy()
.each(callback)
Iterates over a Ruleset invoking a callback for each Rule object in the Ruleset. Callbacks are invoked with the Rule object as their only arguments.
callback {Function}: the function called per iteration
returns {Ruleset} the current instance
rules.each(function(rule) {
// do something...
})
.at(index)
Returns the Rule instance at the specified index.
index (Number): the index of the rule to return
returns {Rule} the Rule object at the specified index.
var rule = rules.at(0)
.getSelectors()
Returns the full selector as a string. If the rule contains more than one selector they are joined with a comma.
returns {String} the full selector
var selector = rule.getSelectors()
.getDeclaration()
Returns an object map of the CSS declaration. (Note: since an object cannot have duplicate keys, duplicate CSS property values ignored. If you need to access duplicate CSS values, you can manually inspect the Rule instance for the raw data.)
returns {Object} the rule's declaration
var declaration = rule.getDeclaration()
.getMedia()
Returns a string of the media query value. If the rule contains more than one media query value (e.g. a nested rule) the media values are joined on and
.
returns {String} the full media query
var media = rule.getMedia()
Putting it all together, this is all the code you'd need to write a functioning polyfill for the new CSS property :local-link
, which allows you to style links based on whether their href
attribute points to a URL on the same domain (ok, there's a little more to it than that, but you get the idea).
Note: This example uses jQuery:
// First write a RegExp to match URL parts
var reURL = /^(?:(https?:)\/\/)?((?:[0-9a-z\.\-]+)(?::(?:\d+))?)/
// Then extend jQuery's selector engine to target local links
$.extend($.expr[':'], {
"local-link": function(el) {
var url = reURL.exec(el.href)
, protocol = url[1]
, host = url[2]
return protocol == location.protocol && host == location.host
}
})
// Create the polyfill and register the callbacks, that's it!
Polyfill({ selectors: [":local-link"] })
.doMatched(function(rules) {
rules.each(function(rule) {
$(rule.getSelectors()).css(rule.getDeclaration())
})
})
.undoUnmatched(function(rules) {
rules.each(function(rule) {
$(rule.getSelectors()).removeAttr("style")
})
localLinkPolyfill.getCurrentMatches().each(function(rule) {
$(rule.getSelectors()).css(rule.getDeclaration())
})
})

A clean diesel light vehicle is 25% more economical than a corresponding gasoline model. This means that even if diesel fuel costs slightly more than gasoline in the US, clean diesel light vehicles manage more miles per gallon, which more than compensates for this.
No other powertrain has a greater operating range:on a full tank a German medium segment car cantravel around 800 miles on the highway and a CUV or premium car covers approximately 550 to 700 miles.
Clean Diesel engines demonstrate up to 25 % higher efficiency in comparison with modern gas engines, thus facilitating significantly larger ranges. This implies that the diesel engine makes a higher contribution to the achievement of fuel economy objectives, which in turn leads to significantly fewer trips by the customer to the gas station.
For Gas, the multiplier is 0.71 x Number Of Miles Traveled Per Day = Annual Trips Per Year

Whether premium passenger cars or premium SUVs/CUVs, a modern six-cylinder clean diesel(from German manufacturers) is as powerful as aV8 gasoline model and as economical/efficientas a four-cylinder vehicle.1
The Diesel sounds were provided by Robert Bosch GmbH. The old sound is from 1990 and the new sound is from 2011.

In the summer of 2011, U.S. Secretary of Transportation, Ray LaHood, was already emphasizing that the U.S. could save 1.4 million barrels of oil every day if one-third of all cars were fitted with Clean Diesel power trains1.
Clean Diesels have such low (classical) pollutant emissions that they meet the strict limit values in all 50 federal states, even in California (AdBlue and SCR).
Modern diesel power trains have developed to reach the status of high-performance, fuel-efficient, sophisticated and, above all, clean engines. As a result of the emissions legislation, exhaust emissions from diesel engines have been reduced by up to 98 percent since the start of the nineties.2
The Empire State building has 37 million cubic feet of volume.3 There are 8.741 square cubic feet in one pound of CO2.4 Therefore, the Empire State building can hold 4,232,925 pounds of CO2. If 1/3 of Americans switched to Diesel vehicles, 1.4M barrels of oil would be saved. From each barrel, 19 gallons of motor gas is created5. From each gallon of gas, 20 pounds of CO2 are emitted6. That means saving 1.4M barrels of oil is equivalent to 532M pounds of CO2 that would not be emitted from motor gas. This means that the amount of CO2 saved would be able to fill 125 Empire State buildings every day.

In 2009 (VW's Jetta TDI) and 2010 (Audi's A3 TDI) German Clean Diesel models won the renowned "Green Car of the Year" award (the BMW 335d, the VW Golf TDI and the VW Passat TDI were among the top five finalists).
Sales of clean diesel passenger cars rose by 36 percent in 2011.

If you noticed diffrence between the Internet connection speed your ISP provider promised you and your current speed. Chances are you don't know the diffrence between Mb vs MB
Mb(Megabit) and MB(MegaByte), don't wory most of
the people don't know the diffrence ,so that ISP providers use the lack of knowledge of people as their advantages ,so we are here to rescue you
where 1MB(MegaByte) equals to 8 Mb(Megabit),but the terms are used in specific ways: Megabits per second (mbps) are generally used to describe the speed of an Internet connection, whereas megabytes (MB) usually refer to the size of a file or storage space.
when ISP providers tell you "we provide you 100Mb per second",they don't specify wheater it is (Mb or MB) that's why the problem accours ,where the consumer think as MB and agrees for the connection (in such cases the connection can not be terminated whin 3 months are so beware of such things)that's why your struggling with unexpected download speed
You may be wondering how this relates to you and your broadband speed.
Data sizes are usually measured in 'bytes', and broadband speeds are measured in 'bits'. Based on the file size and your connection speed, you can estimate how long it'll take you to download something.
If you buy a internet
package with “up to 50Mbps”, it means that your download speed will be 6.25 MB per sec.
Here are some examples:
8 Mbits = 1 MB
1 Mbit = 0.125 MB
10 Mbit = 1.25 MB
12 Mbit = 1.5 MB
50 Mbits = 6.25 MB
100 Mbits = 12.5 MB
80 Mbits = 10 MB
2000 Mbits = 250 MB
You don't need special calculater are specific wesites to calculate this just type in google for Mb to MB converter

The fundamentals of process variables, material balances, energy balances, and entropy balances will be introduced. Phase and reaction equilibria will be presented. Application to power cycles and chemical reactor design will be made.
The goals of an engineering education should be: to supply you with a fundamental set of concepts and practices upon which engineering is built, and with which you can build an intellectual framework for the additional knowledge which you will undoubtedly need, to help you distinguish between what you know and what you don't know, to give you practice in educating yourself with whatever knowledge is necessary to solve the problem at hand, and to communicate clearly to others what the problem is and how to solve it.
This course is designed to teach you the fundamentals of chemical and thermal processes, to help you distinguish between what you know and what you don't know, to give you practice in educating yourself with whatever knowledge is necessary to solve the problem at hand, and to communicate clearly to others what the problem is and how to solve it. Toward this end, there are the following course components:
The homework will usually be assigned by email to the class list and also listed on the website. Homework will not be submitted for grading (with one exception). However, students will be chosen pseudo-randomly to present homework solutions for each problem in class. In addition to the solution, the presenting student will be expected to describe the fundamental principles needed to solve the problem, and how the problem applies in a larger engineering context.
Each presentation will be graded for technical content (by me), and for utility and clarity of presentation (by the other students). Students will not be given advance notice of the day they are to present. If you are not present on the day you are asked to present, you will receive a zero, unless you have informed me ahead of time (e.g., clinic or other trip), or your absence is due to a serious documentable cause (e.g., illness, earthquake, family tragedy). Students will be emailed their presentation grades as soon as they are available.
To be successful in this class, you must start on your homework early. There are often missing parameters or approaches that are not in the book, nor in the class notes. You are expected to find the missing material. You can often find it by asking me in person or by email, but you won't know what to ask until you start on the homework. People who wait until the night before will almost certainly be unable to finish.
There will be a computer assignment due each week. For the first twelve weeks, the assignments will be on Microsoft Excel and will be submitted electronically. There will be templates for each of the spreadsheet assignments available on the course website. For the last three weeks, the assignments will probably be on a commercial process flow simulator, and will probably be turned in as annotated printouts.
Pop quizzes may be given at any time during class. They will be short (5-to-10 minutes) and on a single concept or idea.
Three mid-term examinations and one final examination will be given. They will be open-book and open-note. The exams will consist of two sections: A series of short, single-topic questions, and several deeper questions. The short-question section must be completed during the assigned testing period, but the deeper-question section may be completed anytime during a 24-hour period commencing with the start of the short-question period.
The purpose of the short-question section is to test for a minimal competency in chemical and thermal processes. A list of exactly what concept or principle is being tested by each short question will be provided before the exam. Except for plugging in the numerical values, you can (and should) prepare complete solutions for the short questions before the exam. You must pass 70 percent of the short questions on each exam to pass the course. A student passing fewer than 70 percent of the questions on a given exam will have one week from the time the exams are returned to schedule and pass an oral examination on the same subjects, if they wish to remain in the class. Anyone failing an oral examination will fail the course.
The deeper questions are designed to test for the ability to integrate and synthesize several basic skills in the solution of an engineering problem. Exam problems from previous years will be included in the homework. There will be no extra review sessions scheduled outside of class before the exams.
The weighting of assessed material will be as follows:
| HW/Presentations | 25% |
| Computer Assignments | 20% |
| Quizzes | 5% |
| Midterms | 30% |
| Final | 20% |

Masses are not defined by relation to production, but by their unpredictable and unregulated “circulation” (3). “Revolution is movement, but movement is not a revolution” (18); as a result the restriction of movement (through legislation, ghettoization, militarization and consumption) is the means by which revolution is suppressed. Revolution is therefore an “assault on time” and safety lies not in fleeing but attacking literally before your opponent has the opportunity to destroy you (22).
Everything in this new warfare becomes a question of time won by man over the fatal projectiles toward which his path throws him. Speed is Time saved in the absolute sense of the word, since it becomes human Time directly torn from Death…
The establishment of cities at places of strategic importance led to their fortification, a phenomenon which both implies and invites a constant state of siege (15). This state of siege has been expanded both horizontally and vertically to a state of emergency through the growth (and ownership) of the seas and airspace and the undetectability of attackers (38, 40). The vague and constant state of emergency described by Virilio is reminiscent of the paranoia and defensive actions resulting from the actions of collectives like Anonymous and Wikileaks.
Hitler, like Napoleon, will be defeated by the fleet in being, which will constantly draw its victory from its inaccessibility to combat, from its abandonment of the harmful principle that we must attack as soon as the enemy is in sight, that we must shorten the distance between them and us. The fleet in being is logistics taking strategy to its absolute point, as is the art of movement of unseen bodies; it is the permanent presence in the sea of an invisible fleet able to strike no matter where and no matter when, annihilating the enemy’s will to power by creating a global zone of insecurity in which it will no longer be able to “decide” with certainty, to want–in other words, to win.
Technology produces faster and more efficient machines, which in turn speed up the process of technological innovation. Peace is only achieved through the over-driving and collapse of this process (46).
It is speed as the nature of dromological progress that ruins progress; it is the permanance of the war of Time that creates total peace, the peace of exhaustion.
Speed is the dividing line between East and West, North and South, and between those with hope and those without (47).
 It will tend to divide only into hopeful populations (who are allowed the hope that they will reach, in the future, someday, the speed that they are accumulating, which will give them access to the possible–that is, to the project, the decision, the infinite: speed is the hope of the West) and despairing populations, blocked by the inferiority of their technological vehicles, living and subsisting in a finite world.
Unsurprisingly, Virilio states that the natural outgrowth of a world system built on a hierarchy of speed is fascism (117).
The need for security has been manipulated into a form of consumption (122, 127). Since violence can be reduced to movement (40), security can therefore be defined as the absence of movement (125).
We will see the creation of a common feeling of insecurity that will lead to a new kind of consumption, the consumption of protection; this latter will progressively come to the fore and become the target of the whole merchandising system….The indivisible promotion of the need for security already composes a new composite portrait of the citizen–no longer the one who enriches the nation by consuming, but the one who invests first and foremost in security, manages his own protection as best he can, and finally pays more to consume less.

Nudges is a mobile application for Android and iOS with the aim of connecting people from nearby.
Who should use Nudges?
Everybody who wants to meet or connect with new people or old friends can use Nudges. You ever wanted to go for a drink but none of your friends
had time? Well, just create a group at the location you want to go and wait for people to join you.
What is the business model behind Nudges?
Currently, Nudges is developed by a single person (Thomas Anderl) and the expenses are manageable. This is the reason why there is no advertisement at
all and most features are available to everybody. If you want to support the idea you can get a premium version with some more functionality.
What will be part of the premium feature?
Since we decided against the idea of advertisement and we don't want to restrict the functionality of the free version, most of the features
will be of visual nature. Some basic concepts like a border around the profile are part of it. Also you optionally will be able to directly
send friendrequests instead of just likes to people you are swiping. If you have some other cool ideas, just contact me.
What login method shall I use?
We generally suggest using Facebook. Doing so makes it easier to login and you can directly access your images and import them from Facebook.
If you don't have Facebook or just don't want to use it, you can also use the basic login. Note, that Nudges will never post anything on your Facebook-account and won't
load any information about you, you didn't approve. The permissions needed are as few as possible.
What data are you saving about me?
We take privacy very serious. This is one of the reasons, why we save as little information as possible about you.
With great data comes great responsibility and space requirements, so we will try to keep this at a minimum. Your current location will
also not be saved in the database, but instead just used to find nearby groups.
What are groups?
The main concept of Nudges is built upon groups. Every user is allowed to create a single group and must
provide a location for that group. This location may be a club, a bar, the zoo or anything else. Other people who decide to
go there or are currently nearby will see said group and can request to join that group. The core group-related features can be found on the "Groups" tab.
What location shall I choose for the group?
You can take any place that is part of Google Places. So if you decide to go to a bar, just take the bar as a location. If you don't know exactly
where to go, you can also just choose a street or district. Just take what fits best. Please keep in mind to avoid providing your exact home address,
since it is then publically visible. Consider putting it in the chat, since only members can see that.
How can I directly add people?
Since we want you to meet new people, you can directly add people you are in a group with. Just go to the group and click on the persons icon.
If you are also part of the group, you can add that person by clicking the top right button on the popover that appears. This only works if you are
a member of this group.
Where can I edit my profile?
When you did login successfully you can open the sidemenu by either swiping on the screen from the left to the right, or by clicking the top right icon in the navigation bar.
From there you can click "Edit Profile" to change the public information about yourself. There are also other usefull functionalities you can use.
Can I turn off notifications?
Yes. You can go to "Settings" from the sidemenu and toggle the according field.
I feel offended by a profile or group. What can I do?
You can find a report button in form of a flag on user profiles and group pages. You are not allowed to be part of the group you want to report.
For extreme cases, feel free to contact us.
What/Who helped you building this app?
Kisses and hugs to:
Everybody who tested this application in the alpha/beta-phase and giving me appropriate feedback.
Alexander B. for providing the icon and helping with the design at some places.
The people working at Google Firebase, the backend solution taking care of security and authentication for me.
All the users out there, who make the community grow and thus Nudges a better place <3.
Who designed the homepage?
The theme is a template from Bootstrap and looks very awesome, so most of the credit goes to the people creating it. The template
is called "new age".
How can I contact you?
We am very happy about every type of feedback. As long as it is manageable, we will try to respond to most of it. So feel free to contact me
regarding feedback/problems/ideas/wishes/whatever by email as follows:


Ellen Veomett is a Professor of Mathematics at Saint Mary's College of California. Her background is in discrete geometry, and she got involved in studying the mathematics of redistricting in 2017. Her most well-known work in this area is her analysis of the Efficiency Gap, in which she showed how voter turnout affects the metric. She has also done an analysis of the Declination, and is working on various projects related to redistricting and to detecting gerrymandering.
Wes Pegden is an Associate Professor of mathematics at Carnegie Mellon University, where he does research on theoretical problems in probability and combinatorics, often arising from questions in computer science and statistical physics. One line of his research has resulted in mathematical tools for subjecting political districtings to rigorous statistical analyses. The key ingredient is mathematical theorems which allow Markov chains to be used to make rigorous and relevant statements about outliers, without requiring knowledge of the mixing behavior of the Markov chains in question. Leveraging these tools, Wes served as an expert witness in the League of Women Voters v. Pennsylvania case, which overturned the U.S. Congressional districting of Pennsylvania as a partisan gerrymander, and the Common Cause v. Lewis case, which overturned the state House and Senate districtings of North Carolina as partisan gerrymanders.

How do we make sure federal, state, and local funds are distributed in a manner that meets the greatest need? How can we be certain every vote counts? These and other questions will be of particular interest this year, as the decennial US Census is completed by July of this year.
Once the numbers are in, legislators and social scientists will be pouring over them. But so will mathematicians. Questions of equity and fairness are being addressed using sophisticated tools from theoretical and applied mathematics.
This year at MathFest, we consider this overlap between mathematics and social science. Listen to two talks given by math professors who study these problems. Participate in a panel that includes the former director of the redistricting staff of the NY State Democrats, a Senior Fellow at the NY Census & Redistricting Institute, the Co-founder of Social Explorer, and the Director of the NYC labor council. Network with these professionals and with graduate students in the social sciences who use the data to advocate for social change.
The main entrance to Fordham University is located at the northwest corner of Columbus Avenue at 60th Street (113 West 60th Street, New York, NY 10023). The A, B, C, D and 1 subway trains all stop at 59th Street/Columbus Circle. The campus is located one block west.
Registration and breakfast/lunch are located in the Atrium:
Talks are located at Fordham Law School, Room 3-04:
From Columbus Circle, head to Fordham University. Walk two blocks up from 60th St and make a left. Enter the law school building at 150 West 62nd Street. Take the elevator up to the 3rd floor - on the glass side of the building, walk left and down to room 3-04 (note that there are two entrances to each room).

git diff
.On OSX, XCode installs one such visual tool, FileMerge, into /Developer/Applications/Utilities/FileMerge.app. You can invoke FileMerge by its commandline name, opendiff. i.e. git difftool -t opendiff
. FileMerge/opendiff does a nice job of reporting each change when diffing plain text files, such as uncompiled code.
git help difftool
lists other tools it know how to use, such as araxis, bc3, diffuse, emerge, ecmerge, gvimdiff, kdiff3, kompare, meld, opendiff, p4merge, tkdiff, vimdiff and xxdiff. (Not all of these are installed by default. Araxis Merge, for instance, is a commercial product capable of visualizing diffs for Word, Excel, OpenDocument, PDF, RTF, images, and binary files. It's also expensive as heck.)
If your preferred diff tool is not on this list, git config
can be used to add custom support for it. git help difftool
has details.
For PDFs, I like diffpdf. It's free, open source, and one of the few diff tools that picks up on both visual and textual changes. I own a bunch of beta books, each of which get regular content updates by their authors. It's handy to be able to see exactly what's changing across time in those PDFs, whether it be diagram refinements, clarifying an example, subtle typo fixes, or whole new passages.
By the way, these tools don't necessarily have to be used via git. Generally they allow you to compare any arbitrary two (sometimes even three) files. Note that tools vary as to what, and how, they report changes. diff, for instance, punts on binaries:
$ diff foo.txt bar.txt 1,1 < Hello world --- > My little pony $ diff A.jpg B jpg Binary files A.jpg and B.jpg differ


amplifier: A sound processing module within a {_voice} that controls the volume. Each voice has two, one in each {_channel}. Each amplifier's volume is controlled by the sum of two envelope mod inputs, multiplied by a post mod input typically used for a pedal or a {_sweep} tremolo.
An amplifier is usually used at the output of the voice, in which case it also includes a pan control that can be modulated. But the B channel amplifier is used in certain {_patch patches} to control the mix of the A and B {_oscillator oscillators}, in which case the pan portion is disabled.
Also: {_oscillator}, {_waveshaper}, {_filter}

But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted.

Taxi
For the use of taxi services from Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport to any destination in Belgrade area and further, please contact the city service TAXI INFO desk, located in the baggage reclaim area. If this one is not working, there is one located immediately after you exit the baggage reclaim area, right next to the exit door.
Just be aware NOT taking the taxi from anyone who approaches you – they usually charge much more. Please take a taxi receipt at the information desk – it should state your end destination in Belgrade and the ride price. The price is fixed (1800 dinars for any location in the city center). See more info about the taxi
here.

title: Overview description: Crate is revolutionizing scalable databases by offering SQL syntax, replication, sharding and Lucene indexes in one complete distributed package {% extends "base.html" %} {% block header %}
Crate.io is revolutionizing the way you build scalable backends. Instead of nailing together different services to build your backend data store and wondering how to scale when your data grows from millions to billions, Crate's distributed database offers the simplicity and scalability you need from the outset.
Crate is a distributed data store. Simply install Crate directly on your application servers and make the monolithic centralized database a thing of the past. Crate takes care of synchronization, sharding, scaling, and replication even for mammoth data sets. If a node becomes unavailable, Crate self-heals and rebalances the cluster automatically.
Our guiding principle is simplicity. Crate is simple to set up, scale, and query in real time using SQL. Crate can be installed in the cloud, or using on-premise commodity hardware. Use our Docker image to simplify installations across your entire cluster.
Crate is a distributed system that runs on one machine or a cluster of machines.
Crate comes in one complete install package. It includes solid established open source components (Presto, Elasticsearch, Lucene, Netty) and extends those with added core functionality like read/write support, SQL language, dashboard and query console.
All nodes in a Crate Cluster are equal, a shared-nothing architecture. That makes configuration really easy. Furthermore, Crate is able to utilize all cluster resources for all functions if needed.
On each node, the Handler Side component receives client requests and processes them. After parsing, SQL queries are analyzed and executed in a distributed manner. To calculate the final result, remote nodes collect intermediate results and merge them in the next phase. To make BLOB delivery even faster, nodes are able to stream results directly as well.
Crate.IO has built a new breed of database to serve today’s mammoth data needs. Based on the familiar SQL syntax, Crate combines high availability, resiliency, and scalability in a distributed design that allows you to query mountains of data in realtime, not batches. It is also 100% open source. We built it so developers with a data intensive back-end won’t need to “glue” several technologies together to store documents, BLOBs and support real-time search. We also wanted to help developers avoid the manual work associated with tuning, sharding, replication and other operations required to keep a large de-normalized data store in good shape. We wanted a simple, failure-tolerant and massively scalable data store anyone can use, on-premise or in the cloud.
A data store for data-intensive apps would need to be persistent, horizontally scalable and support these five requirements:
(1) store documents, (2) BLOBs, (3) find them again (4) run queries (analytics) and (5) allow making straightforward changes to the data structure if needed.
This is where the medley of technologies comes in. Couldn’t developers just glue together several technologies and get at the same results? Here are some examples:
Let’s see how Crate deals with these 5 requirements, while also supporting a self-healing and self-configuring data store.
Crate is shipping with a built-in Administration Interface. The Command Line interface (Crate Shell – CraSh) allows interactive queries. Crate’s Python client is most advanced and features SQLAlchemy integration.
See Client Documentation for more information.


PEOPLE CENTERED RESEARCH:
3 Weeks
CIID 2017
TEAM:
Benedict Huebener
Keyur Jain
Rachel Lane
Cards to Save Humanity is a game for families to talk about controversial topics through card game mechanics and role playing. The project was influenced by recent political events that highlighted the divide between generations and the lack of communication happening even among family. In partnership with the Balthazar group, the concept was developed to support inter-generational exchange between Retired Adults and Young Adults.
During the first week, we defined, questioned, and redefined our research objective– Identify and understand opportunities for new intergenerational services, products, or experiences that interweave the needs and potentials of retired people with the needs and potential of younger adults. We refined the research to object to Uncover the behaviors or interactions between generations in which one or both sides find reason to challenge their own perspectives/biases towards a charged topic.
After defining our research focus we spent time generating research tools and a Research Protocol that would help gather enough content to synthesize insights. For example we created topic cards to help trigger reactions to sensitive topics without forcing interview participants to come up with their own.
Research from five deep-dive interviews with six people, aged from 30 to 69 and including three different nationalities, indicated that intergenerational tension was more pronounced in families than across broader communities. We also felt a need and desire for the younger generation to hear more from their parents and grandparents about their life histories and longview perspectives on some the political issues of today.
Based on our research insights we synthesized our design opportunity to "How might we connect people from different generations to build a longview on charged and complex topics?" Using this How Might We, we gathered and synthesized new ideas through cocreation sessions together with our research participants. Lightning rounds with different constraints helped generate more than 40 different concepts which we then clustered and found emerging themes.


hash
OS/161 Reference Manual
Name
hash - compute a simple hash function of a file
Synopsis
/testbin/hash file
host-hash file
Description
hash takes a file and computes a hash value for it by adding all the
bytes in the file together modulo a prime.
hash is by default also compiled for the System/161 host OS so you can
cross-check the answers you get.
Requirements
hash uses the following system calls:
Once the basic system calls are complete, hash should work on any file
the system supports. However, it will probably of most use for testing
while working on the file system assignment.
