What is the apostrophe in A' mean in sets?
I recall seeing some apostrophes after a letter, doesn't necessarily have to be A, but I am getting ready for a very important exam. This is just a theory, but when I first learned it, A' would be a combination of all the sets just like when you're finding Union. Please correct me if I wrong, and if possibly provide an example. Thank you very much whoever can answer my question!
Why won't my PHP form submissions take apostrophes? The form submits fine until I add 'one', then I get this: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version
you are making a basic mistake with input validation or quoting, which is especially difficult to get right in php if you have the magic escaping function on that was supported until php 5.2 (or 5.4?)You are probably creating a sql statement with string operations like this:$sql=”insert into table set row=’”.$input.”’;because you copied it from some random example on the Internet.The best solution to fix this is to use prepared statements (bound parameters) (pdo or mysqli) instead of string operations to build the sql statement or the use the mysql quote function like this:$sql=”insert into table set row=’”.addslashes($input).”’;You could also use a ORM class instead of doing the sql directly when you use any of the php frameworks like laravel.please note that when this is not done properly, you will likely create security issues that can compromise your site.
English 11 help:ONE sentence uses the apostrophe correctly?

What does an apostrophe means when working with angles?
it means a "minute", where each minute is worth 1/60 of a degree. Each minute can be further divided into 60 smaller units called seconds, and marked with a ". As in 5° 40' 17" Babylonians (before the Greeks, two thousand years ago) used a system based on 60. Before calculators, this was practical because 60 is one of those magical numbers that can be divided by a whole bunch of other numbers. 60 is divible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 15, 20, 30. Babylonians had also noted that dividing the circle in 360 degrees (rather than 365, the real number of days in the year) was also very practical (same reason). When astronomy became a mathematical science, astronomers (who wrote in latin) divided the degree in 60 small parts, and called each one a "pars minuta prima" (the first small part); each one of these could be divided again in 60 even smaller parts called "pars minuta secunda (the second small part). From the first, we have kept the word minute, with emphasis on the first syllable: MIN-it (the word is also used as an adjective, meaning 'very small' as in "my piece of cake is minute compared to by brother's gigantic piece" -- emphasis on the syllable NU: miNUte). From the second divisions, we have kept the word "second". At one point, when 16th century astronomers went crazy with calculations, some even went to the fifth level of division by 60. Today, we do not go beyond seconds. If we need more precision, we go to decimal fractions of seconds (or even decimal fractions of degrees), as in five degrees, 40 minutes and 17.3 seconds: 5° 40' 17.3" = 5.6714722...° --- In most calculators, if you want the sine of an angle, you must enter the angle in degrees. 5° 40' = 5 + (40/60) = 5.66666... degrees Sin(5.66666...) = 0.0987408... In some spreadsheets (like Excel), you must provide the angle in "radians". One radian is the angle that gives you, on a circle's circumference, a curved length equal to one radius. Since the circumference (360 degrees) = 2*pi*r, then 1 radian = 360 / (2*pi) = approx. 57.29577951 degrees. So, in Excel, you'd have to ask for SIN(5.66666/57.29577951) ---- Once you have the appropriate trig function, you can find the sides in a triangle.
In calculus, what does the apostrophe over the f(x) (like this: f'(x) or y') mean?
The term " f'(x) " reads f prime x or the first derivative of f(x), f(x) being the general form of the function in question.Mathematical symbols are just ways to express a relationship of variables in the shortest way possible. A one-paragraph word problem is essentially reduced to a few lines of equations with universally understood symbols, and universal understanding here just means Mathematicians, and those who employ the structures of Mathematics, came to use these symbols to represent common (i.e., the same) values or variables across all mediums, that they've become commonplace.You can, of course use your own symbology, including the apostrophe (') noted in your question, to mean other things for you, just remember to place your assumptions before using the symbols, if you wish to be understood by those who will come after you and analyze your work.And if you are lucky enough, the world may actually come to adopt your symbolism, essentially transforming them into universally understood symbols as well.
Why do so many people use apostrophes inappropriately?
Because the “proper use” is difficult and people don’t like difficult things.Nobody wants to learn rules, “I know how to speak English”, they say. “I don’t need you to tell me how to use apostrophes.”, “Why are apostrophes thought of as important, everybody knows what you mean, dont (sic) they?”, “I haven’t got time to learn rules”, “Rules are made for breaking”, “Shakespeare spelled words differently lots of times”All excuses for not being bothered to learn simple rules and apply them. They probably drive BMWs and think they should be called BMW’s.The rules are fairly simple, with the only real complication being possession by a named person with an “s” at the end of their name, so you get “James’s bike” but “Jesus’ disciples”. And the possessives of compound nouns, like “mother-in-law’s tongue” as opposed to the plural “mothers-in-law”. Oh, and then there’s the one that lots of people get wrong, “its and it’s”. It’s the posessive that causes the ignorant to give us “grocer’s apostrophes” on, and off, everything: “theres a bus”, “its her’s”, “hi’s leg’s”.Many of these come from homophones (words that sound alike, in case anyone reading doesn’t know) - two, to, to, their, there, they’re, for, four, fore, and the strange case of loose and lose.
How can I resolve a middle name issue in the GRE account registration?
Confirm with the ETS customer care, they're very responsive and helpful. I had the same problem myself and this is what's important:The name you use when you register — and the spelling of that name — must exactly match (excluding accents, apostrophes and spaces) the name printed on the identification (ID) documents that you will present on the day of the test...Be sure to provide your entire first (given) name (excluding accents, apostrophes and spaces).My identification document was my passport where there's no middle name column either. There the first (given) name has "VEDANT DAS".Another thing mentioned by ETS is:If you have a two-part last name, be sure to supply your complete last name as it appears on the ID documents (excluding accents, apostrophes and spaces) that you will present on the day of the test. For example, a last name of Fernandez de Córdova would be entered as FernandezdeCordova.The same rationale applied to the first name as well (at least for me). So on ETS and my GRE etc, my first name was "VedantDas" and my last name was "Swain".Therefore depending on where your middle name goes in your identification documents you'll have to do the needful. Make sure you confirm with the ETS customer care.
