in the round
(adjective)
Sculpture that stands freely, separate from a background.
Examples of in the round in the following topics:
-
Italian Sculpture in the Baroque Period
- Baroque sculpture dominated Italy in the 1600s and was characterized by sculpture in the round.
- Baroque sculpture is the sculpture associated with the Baroque cultural movement in 17th century Europe.
- Baroque sculpture often had multiple ideal viewing angles and reflected a general continuation of the Renaissance's move away from relief to sculpture created in the round.
- Bernini was also given the commission for the Tomb of Pope Urban VIII in St Peters.
- His international popularity was such that the streets were lined with admiring crowds during his walks in the city.
-
Answers and Rounding Off
- A simple way to round off answers is to carry your final answer one more decimal place than was present in the original data.
- Round only the final answer.
- For example, the average of the three quiz scores 4, 6, 9 is 6.3, rounded to the nearest tenth, because the data are whole numbers.
- Most answers will be rounded in this manner.
- Especially in Probability Topics (Section 3.1), the chapter on probability, it is more helpful to leave an answer as an unreduced fraction.
-
Introduction to evaluating the normal approximation
- Many processes can be well approximated by the normal distribution.
- We have already seen two good examples: SAT scores and the heights of US adult males.
- Testing the appropriateness of the normal assumption is a key step in many data analyses.
- The observations are rounded to the nearest whole inch, explaining why the points appear to jump in increments in the normal probability plot.

Some Useful Terms
- Round - In a canon, obviously every section of the canon must "fit" with the section that comes after it.
- (In other words, they must sound good when sung or played at the same time).
- A round is a special type of canon in which the last section also fits with the first section, so that the canon can be repeated over and over without stopping.
- Rounds are usually pretty short and always start at the same note, or the octave.
- But then the different voices develop the theme in different directions.

Multilateralism, Regionalism, and Bilateralism
- One other principle the United States traditionally has followed in the trade arena is multilateralism.
- For many years, it was the basis for U.S. participation and leadership in successive rounds of international trade negotiations.
- In 1979, as a result of the success of the Tokyo Round, the United States and approximately 100 other nations agreed to further tariff reductions and to the reduction of such nontariff barriers to trade as quotas and licensing requirements.
- -Israel Free Trade Area Agreement, took effect in 1985, and the second, the U.S.
- The latter pact led to the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1993, which brought the United States, Canada, and Mexico together in a trade accord that covered nearly 400 million people who collectively produce some $8.5 trillion in goods and services.

Introduction to Meiosis
- The ability to reproduce in kind is a basic characteristic of all living things.
- The number of sets of chromosomes in a cell is called its ploidy level.
- In most plants and animals, through tens of rounds of mitotic cell division, this diploid cell will develop into an adult organism.
- To achieve this reduction in chromosomes, meiosis consists of one round of chromosome duplication and two rounds of nuclear division.
- However, because there are two rounds of division, the major process and the stages are designated with a "I" or a "II."

Rules of Probability for Mendelian Inheritance
- An example of a genetic event is a round seed produced by a pea plant.
- Mendel demonstrated that the probability of the event "round seed" was guaranteed to occur in the F1 offspring of true-breeding parents, one of which has round seeds and one of which has wrinkled seeds.
- When the F1 plants were subsequently self-crossed, the probability of any given F2 offspring having round seeds was now three out of four.
- In other words, in a large population of F2 offspring chosen at random, 75 percent were expected to have round seeds, whereas 25 percent were expected to have wrinkled seeds.
- The dominant trait is expressed in 3/4 of the offspring and the recessive trait is expressed in 1/4.
-
Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment
- From these genotypes, we infer a phenotypic ratio of 9 round/yellow:3 round/green:3 wrinkled/yellow:1 wrinkled/green .
- Ignoring seed color and considering only seed texture in the above dihybrid cross, we would expect that three-quarters of the F2 generation offspring would be round and one-quarter would be wrinkled.
- Here, the probability for color in the F2 generation occupies the top row (3 yellow:1 green).
- The probability for shape occupies the second row (3 round:1 wrinked), and the probability for height occupies the third row (3 tall:1 dwarf).
- Thus, the probability of F2 offspring having yellow, round, and tall traits is 3 × 3 × 3, or 27.
-
Round-off Error
- A round-off error is the difference between the calculated approximation of a number and its exact mathematical value.
- A round-off error, also called a rounding error, is the difference between the calculated approximation of a number and its exact mathematical value.
- As such, values are expressed in the form of a decimal with infinite digits.
- To make calculations much easier, the results are often 'rounded off' to the nearest few decimal places.
- The more rounding off that is done, the more errors are introduced.

Lab 2: Sampling Experiment
- In this lab, you will be asked to pick several random samples.
- In each case, describe your procedure briefly, including how you might have used the random number generator, and then list the restaurants in the sample you obtained
- Round to the nearest whole number.
- Round to the nearest whole number.
