Growth of population is inversely proportion ....
Ie to say Gross would increase but distribution could be more and more uneven .
Rich US or poor India, the population growth is much more in poor of the people".
In any country....
Mostly not.

Is exponential growth of desktop computing power not valid anymore? Today, it looks more like a logarithmic growth.
For example, at the beginning of 1990th a typical desktop CPU was 20..50 MIPS (386,486), then in 2000 it was 1000..3000 MIPS (Pentium III...

I also think you have to factor cost into "power" comparisons .
Exponential growth is shown as a straight line on a logarithmic scale.
Versus "exponential".

Estimate your rate of growth, in rows per time unit.
Then roughly 7 rows will fit in an 8 kB block .

Well, the ARM processors don't maintain a stack directly-- but they do have instructions that are designed with that in mind: LDM and STM .

I'm looking for a good way to represent organic growth - especially trees and flowers - using code.
I've found Lindenmayer Systems as a reasonable way to portray this, but need a good place to start programming this.
Any good suggestions?

"using code" is a bit fuzzy, so I can hardly answer .
I am not sure how much you already know on the topic, but I believe Wikipedia's article on L-system should be a good start .

Please order the function belows by growth rate
n ^ 1.5 n ^ 0.5 + log n n log ^ 2 n n log ( n ^ 2 ) n log log n n ^ 2 + log n n log n n
ps: Ordering by growth rate means, as n gets larger and larger, which function will eventually be higher in value than...

In all of those cases, you're dealing with pairs of functions that themselves have different growth "growth rate" is going to be exactly that of the one with the higher growth rate of the two.

I was wondering if anyone knows the growth policy of ArrayList in Java 1.6? The java doc says
The details of the growth policy are not specified beyond the fact that adding an element has constant amortized time cost.
But I just wonder the details because...

This is what I see when I look at the source of ensureCapacity :
int newCapacity = (oldCapacity * 3)/2 + 1;
ArrayList doesn't need a loadFactor... .
Every copy of the Sun JDK comes with a src.zip that contains the source .
You can read the source for yourself.

I've written a small app to periodically query, sanitize, and insert a legacy database's data into SqlServer. There are about 3M records and, if I make the polling widow pretty small, I can imagine the transaction log getting pretty big. How can I minimize...

Otherwise you will need to perform transaction log back ups .
If simple, the transaction log space should be freed and reused as transactions are committed, limiting space used .
Depends on the backup mode of the target database.

I'd say stick is, it "depends".
The exponential growth strategy is used throughout STL and it seems to work fine.
