Several variations exist depending on the type of reference, the number of authors including the use of et al., and whether or not you are quoting from a paper document or an Internet source. In addition, the way in which quotes are used varies depending on how the quote is framed in the sentence and depending on length (especially if more than 40 words). For each reference, look up the style in the manual until this information is memorized, which will not take long after writing several papers in this program. For the reference page, notice every comma, every use of capitalization, italicizing, and other formatting issues.

This week’s critical thinking assignment explores the system-level scripting functionality of the Linux operating system.

The sed command will also be used to change the data within the test file. These steps will be discussed and illustrated with screenshots in the following paper.

In Chapter 3, there were 12 areas of bias spread across the 3 areas of heuristics. The main theme of the text was to prove that we are predisposed to certain outcomes.

Overall, we are biased in many ways when it comes to making decisions, or predicting outcomes of a particular event.

3. Meaning/Purpose - In the biblical/Christian Worldview our purpose in life is to build a relationship with God through his son Jesus Christ. We are also to spread the message of Jesus to others so that they may be saved as well.
