Exercises Part B: Fill & Download for Free

The #1 exercise for any creative writer is free association on the page, now called "timed” or “free" writing. Basically, you write without stopping and WITHOUT ANY RATIONAL THOUGHT for an extended period of time, say fifteen minutes. I did this exercise for three years running during my twenties, and it made me a writer. Here's an example from those days:You will save yourself a lot of grief if you learn to divide your creative mind into two distinct parts:A. Free AssociationB. EditingI call the first part "generating the raw material," and the second part "editing the raw material."Learn how to suspend your rational mind while scribbling your thoughts, and you won't go wrong.(You can always be rational later, during edits.)-Lance

Though the marks are not revealed yet of sbi po mains(will be after the final result), I will answer this question because I really think I performed fine in this subject and because i also used to ask questions like this to get the perfect content and strategies in this era of abundant yet hazy information everywhere. So, here I go:And it depends on your level of practice, I will only tell the source which matches with the current level of all banking exams.FOR PRE ONLY (OF ANY BANKING EXAM): In pre, you can easily cover this section through mocks too. But still it’s better to go in examination hall all prepared in this era of arrant competition. This book for beginners only:MAGICAL BOOK ON PUZZLE BY K KUNDAN (BSC PUBLICATION)-OPTIONAL** Avoid this book, if you have given few banking exams and given fine number of mock tests already.”2. FOR PRE AND MAINS:“A COMPLETE BOOK OF PUZZLE AND SEATING ARRANGEMENT BY ADDA247 PUBLICATIONS” - (MUST ONE)You can buy either whole mains kit containing four books (DI+PUZZLE+BANKING AWARENESS+CRACKER)and the content is good of all or this one separately.The books contains PART-A,B, C and 10 practice sets. If you want to cover pre and mains both and decides to not go with the above mentioned one, then complete this whole book, you will see the difference certainly.But if you are done with the pre level puzzles then go with this order:PART C> PART B> PART A(focussing more on mains level exercise in this part) And those 10 practice sets are easy for you, you can leave them.3. FOR MORE EDGE THAN OTHERS:“PUZZLE MANIA BY OLIVEBOARD”You can practise the high level questions portion in this book between the time given to prepare for Mains after pre.Tip: Solve the reasoning section from mains cracker of Adda247+Oliveboard mocks.Any 2 of these 3 will serve the purpose.Practice is the key to nail this section and raising your level through solving high level puzzles gradually to clear mains.Tip: Watch and practice puzzles from ibps guide(youtube channel) for high level content puzzles. (Try to solve it by yourself, first.)You can buy these books online in Amazon.Thankyou!

Contrary to (apparently) popular belief, pi itself has a precise value (even though it can’t be expressed in a finite number of decimal digits).Likewise, its square root has a precise value, even though it can’t be expressed in a finite number of decimal digits either.Now, it’s true that there are numbers that can’t be expressed in a finite number of decimal digits, but can be expressed in a finite number of digits in some other number base. For example, 1/3 in decimal is 0.333… repeating forever—but in base 3, it’s just 0.1. Pretty trivial.Contrary to those, pi is an irrational number, which means (among other things) that with *any* integer as the base, it’ll always require an infinite number of digits to express the precise value. And since Pi is irrational, its square root is also irrational (given any integers [math]A[/math] and [math]B[/math][math][/math] forming a rational number [math]A \over [/math][math]B[/math][math][/math], then its square [math]({A \over B})^2[/math] = [math]{A^2} \over {B^2}[/math], and since [math]A[/math] and [math]B[/math][math][/math] are both integers, [math]A^2[/math] and [math]B^2[/math] are also integers, so the square of any rational number is also rational).On the other hand, we could use the square root of pi as the number base. In this case we’d express the square root of pi with absolute, perfect precision as “10”, and we’d express pi (with equally perfect precision) as “100”.Note that although using the square root of pi as a number base isn’t at all common, using a irrational number as the base of a number system isn’t all that rare at all. Natural (aka Napierian) logarithms use an irrational number normally referred to simply as “e” as their base. Although logarithms are a somewhat different way of writing a number, they are exactly that: a way of writing a number. A number represented as a logarithm can also be represented using positional notation (and mostly vice versa, though there are a few exceptions—e.g., there’s no logarithm of 0).Using an integer-based number system we can only directly express an approximation of any irrational number—but that certainly does not mean the number doesn’t exist or doesn’t have a precise value. It only means the typical notations we use to write numbers have limitations that prevent us from expressing some numbers precisely.All that said, the square root of pi (in decimal) to a precision much greater than you’re ever likely to need or care about is 1.772453851.As a sort of personal aside, I’m bothered by the terminology involved. Pi was originally defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, but in the terminology used by mathematicians, even though its very definition is a ratio, it’s still not considered a rational number. Rational numbers are restricted to numbers that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers (well, the modern definition deal in equivalence classes, but that’s close enough for now). When I originally wrote this answer, I pointed to the fact that Pi is a transcendental number rather than its being irrational. Transcendental numbers are more restricted than irrational numbers (i.e., all transcendental numbers are irrational, but not all irrational numbers are transcendental), and the extra restrictions of being a transcendental number are irrelevant to the discussion at hand, so I’ve (somewhat reluctantly) edited to only discuss the fact that pi is irrational.If you’d like to get into a bit more detail about this aspect of things or some of the misconceptions about Pi more generally, Peter James Thomas was kind enough to point to his article The Irrational Ratio in the comments. I found it quite interesting, and rather entertaining (and it doesn’t require a degree in mathematics to follow it, or anything like that either—though if the last time you took a math class was as long ago as it was for me, you may have to do a little thinking here and there to exercise parts of your brain that have been lying dormant for a little too long).
