Curtain Positions and Reporting
In entry/exit areas, the optimal curtain position is typically in the center, specifically sectors X or a point on line X-O.
Current Status Reporting
YY designates the current status of the recipient. In an exit curtain, the leader at point O should form the curtain up.
“Current Status” (YY) refers to the recipient’s current status.
QRS Grid Submission
When submitting a QRS grid, include the letter and scale, QRS identifier, top left corner, and period.

Standard Deviation Calculation (by hand):
Formula:
s=1n−1∑i=1n(xi−xˉ)2s = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1} \sum_{i=1}^{n} (x_i – \bar{x})^2}s=n−11i=1∑n(xi−xˉ)2
where xix_ixi are individual data points, xˉ\bar{x}xˉ is the sample mean, and nnn is the number of data points.
Indexing in Pandas DataFrames:
df[...]: Basic column selection.df.Loc[...]: Label-based indexing (rows/columns).df.Iloc[...]: Position-based indexing.

Census and Sample Methods in Statistical Investigations
Census Method
Census method is a method of data collection where every item of the universe or population related to the problem under investigation is studied.
Suitability
Census method is particularly suitable for statistical investigations with:
- Small population size
- Widely diverse items in the population
- Requirement of intensive examination of different items
- High degree of accuracy and reliability needed
Merits
- Reliable and Accurate: Results are accurate and highly reliable because each item of the
Futures and Forwards: Hedging and Pricing Strategies
Chapter 2: Futures and Forwards
Futures Contract: A standardized contract traded on an exchange to buy or sell an asset at a future date at a price specified today. It can lead to losses if the price of the underlying asset goes up in the future.
Forward Contract: A customized contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a future date for a price agreed upon today. It can lead to profits if the price of the underlying asset goes up in the future.
Cash Flows: In a forward contract, no cash

Comprehensive Guide to Taxation: Key Concepts and Calculations
MTR (Marginal Tax Rate) = Change in Tax / Change in Taxable Income = (New Total Tax – Old Total Tax) / (New Taxable Income – Old Taxable Income)
ATR (Average Tax Rate) = Total Tax / Taxable Income
ETR (Effective Tax Rate) = Total Tax / Total Income
