By using the result table after macro execution, more specific quantitative quality assurance criteria can be specified, for example: that calculated readings speed oscillate be- tween 10 and 14 CPS (o between 120 and 170 WPM). It is also to be kept in mind that the macro has been designed and programmed while bearing in mind the standard formats generated by "Subtitle Workshop" when exported to a Word file, so that the necessary format adjustment previous to running the macro is minimized. To finalize this paper, which tries to foresee tentative applications in the re-
Volts: 2.5 1.25 .625 .3125 .156 .078 .039 .0195 Figure 2.3 shows how the tracking ADC resolves an input voltage of .37v. The counter starts at zero, so the comparator output will be high. The counter counts up, once for every clock pulse, stepping the DAC output voltage up. When the counter passes the binary value that represents the input voltage, the comparator output will switch and the counter will count down. The counter will eventually oscillate around the value that represents the input voltage. The primary drawback to the tracking ADC is speed—a conversion can take up to 256 clocks for an 8-bit output, 1024 clocks for a 10-bit value, and so on. In addition, the conversion speed varies with the input voltage. If the voltage in this example were .18v, the conversion would take only half as many clocks as the .37v example. The maximum clock speed of a tracking ADC depends on the propagation delay of the DAC and the comparator
sinners. T h i s eternally changing feature of reality is described by the Taoist symbol of Yin and Yang, the two comma shapes flowing into one another, each with the seed of its opposite deep in its center. T h e more polarized a system is, the more likely it is to reverse its polarity. T h i s can happen little by litde, in graduated stages, or it can come about catastrophically and all at once. Under the stimulus of conflict with a polarized opposite, a character will begin to oscillate, to swing like a pendulum, further away from the opposite at times, closer at other times. If the stimulus is continued to a certain tipping point, the character may flip polarity, and become temporarily aligned with the opposite pole. T h e shy person, impacted repeatedly by an outgoing person, will retreat and advance, but if the stimulus continues, he or she will make a comical or dramatic reversal to experiment with the unfamiliar experience of being confident and highly
