Simple decimal form

In calculations on enzyme-catalyzed reactions, one of the ways a reaction equation can be entered is in the form atp+h2o+de=adp+pi. Note that hydrogen ions are never shown in a reaction equation at specified pH. Other programs may require that the reaction equation be written in the form ec3x6xlx3=adp+pi-(atp+h2o), where the name of the reaction is the EC (Enzyme Nomenclature) number with decimal points replaced by x s. It is especially simple to change the ranges of independent variables in tables and figures. 

In this equation f is the atomic scattering factor or atomic form factor, h,k,l are the Miller indices of the reflecting plane, and x ,y ,z are the coordinates of the scattering atom in decimal fractions of unit cell parameters, a,b,c, respectively. For simple structures the structure factor indicates what types of Bragg planes in a given kind of structure can produce a diffraction peak, i.e., have non-cancelled, coherent scattering, and also indicates the relative intensity of the allowed peaks (Warren 1969). A few structure factors for simple crystal structures are shown below. 

The importance of the quahty of the classification system is obvious. It should have simple basic classes so broad that no subject of possible interest to the company can arise outside its totality under these main headings, increasingly specific subclasses and subsubclasses are placed. A form of decimal or combination decimal and symbol (letter) system seems best suited. Alphabetical word systems are too cumbersome. 

Use of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of numbers including decimals and fractions simple use of formulas, charts, tables, drawings, specifications, schedules, wiring diagrams use of adjustable measuring instruments checking of reports, forms, records and comparable data where interpretation is required.
