Examples of work-to-rule in the following topics:
-
- The trapezoidal rule (also known as the trapezoid rule or trapezium rule) is a technique for approximating the definite integral $\int_{a}^{b} f(x)\, dx$.
- The trapezoidal rule (also known as the trapezoid rule or trapezium rule) is a technique for approximating the definite integral $\int_{a}^{b} f(x)\,dx$.
- The trapezoidal rule works by approximating the region under the graph of the function $f(x)$ as a trapezoid and calculating its area.
- The trapezoidal rule tends to become extremely accurate when periodic functions are integrated over their periods.
- Use the trapezoidal rule to approximate the value of a definite integral

- The right hand rule is used to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive charge.
- The direction of the magnetic force F is perpendicular to the plane formed by v and B, as determined by the right hand rule, which is illustrated in the figure above.
- These two observations are in keeping with the rule that magnetic fields do no work.
- The direction of the magnetic force on a moving charge is perpendicular to the plane formed by v and B and follows right hand rule–1 (RHR-1) as shown.
- Apply the right hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a charge

- Finally, strategies are specific ways in which composers work within a style—the things that make one composer's work sound different from another's, even if they compose in the same style.
- For the most part, voice-leading principles are "rules" according to Meyer's definitions.
- Note, however, that while "avoid parallel fifths" takes on the form of what we consider "rules" in day-to-day speech, Meyer's rules of musical style are different.
- Meyer's rules are descriptive: these things tend to happen universally, frequently, rarely, never, in specific situations, etc.
- But its specialness is dependent on the ability for the "rules" of that language to be bent, even broken.

- Many daycares have strict rules about sick children needing to stay away until they are no longer infectious, enforcing those rules can be very difficult.
- Daycare providers often undergo extreme pressure to accept a sick child "just this once," the parent has no other care options and cannot miss work.
- Daycare providers often undergo extreme pressure to accept a sick child "just this once" because the parent has no other care options and cannot miss work.
- Daycare providers often undergo extreme pressure to accept a sick child "just this once" the parent has no other care options and cannot miss work.
- Daycare providers often undergo extreme pressure to accept a sick child "just this once" because the parent has no other care options and cannot miss work.

- Matrices and graphs allow us to apply computers to analyzing data: This is helpful because doing systematic analysis of social network data can be extremely tedious if the number of actors or number of types of relationships among the actors is large.
- Most of the work is dull, repetitive, and uninteresting, but requires accuracy; exactly the sort of thing that computers do well, and we don't.
- Matrices and graphs have rules and conventions: Sometimes these are just rules and conventions that help us communicate clearly.
- But sometimes the rules and conventions of the language of graphs and mathematics themselves lead us to see things in our data that might not have occurred to us to look for if we had described our data only with words.
- So, we need to learn the basics of representing social network data using matrices and graphs.
-
- Majority rule is a decision rule that selects the option which has more than half the votes.
- Some scholars have recommended against the use of majority rule, at least under certain circumstances, due to an ostensible trade-off between the benefits of majority rule and other values important to a democratic society.
- Most famously, it has been argued that majority rule might lead to a "tyranny of the majority," and the use of a supermajority and constitutional limits on government power have been recommended to mitigate these effects.
- Recently some voting theorists have argued that majority rule is the rule that best protects minorities.
- Popular sovereignty in its modern sense, that is, including all the people and not just noblemen, is an idea that dates to the social contracts school (mid-17th to mid-18th centuries), represented by Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679), John Locke (1632–1704), and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778), author of The Social Contract, a prominent political work that clearly highlighted the ideals of "general will" and further matured the idea of popular sovereignty.

- The 1975 amendments, also called the National Exchange Market System Act, directed the securities and exchange commission to work with the industry toward establishing a national market system together with a system for the nationwide clearance and settlement of securities transactions.
- Some of the more notable rules include:
- Access Rule - addresses access to market data such as quotations (Rule 610)
- Market Data Rules: a) Allocation amendment – institutes a new Market Data Revenue Allocation Formula, b) Governance amendment – creates advisory committees, c) Distribution and Display Rules – governing market data (Rule 600, 601 & 603).
- The order protection rule has generated controversies since it requires traders to transact on a trading venue at the lowest price rather than on a venue that offers the quickest execution or the most reliability.
-
- Bayes' rule expresses how a subjective degree of belief should rationally change to account for evidence.
- Bayes' rule relates the odds of event $A_1$ to event $A_2$, before (prior to) and after (posterior to) conditioning on another event $B$.
- The rule simply states:
- Bayes' rule tells us how unconditional and conditional probabilities are related whether we work with a frequentist or a Bayesian interpretation of probability.
- Bayesian inference is a method of inference in which Bayes' rule is used to update the probability estimate for a hypothesis as additional evidence is learned.

- Weber's bureaucracy focused on creating rules and regulations to simplify complex procedures in societies and workplaces.
- Bureaucracy is a complex means of managing life in social institutions that includes rules and regulations, patterns, and procedures that are designed to simplify the functioning of complex organizations.
- Included in those forms, however, are countless rules and laws that dictate what can and cannot be included.
- Weber's theories on bureaucracy included topics such as specialization of the work force, the merit system, standardized principles, and structure and hierarchy in the workplace.
- Weber viewed this as a bleak outcome that would affect individuals' happiness as they would be forced to function in a highly rational society with rigid rules and norms without the possibility to change it.
