Income inequality Gini Coefficient: Gini Coefficient is measure of inequality on a scale of zero and one, if the score is “0” it implies all population has the same income which means every household has the same income, if the score is “1” is the opposite, where everyone has unequal income and is at perfect inequality. If only one household has all the income then the score would be “1”, which refers to complete inequality. A research report on OECD countries reflect AUS is the eleventh most unequal
Table 4.1 presents the characteristics of the milk market participant and non-participant households. There are statistically significant differences between the two groups on 17 covariates. Husbands in participant households are on average older (mean 50) than husbands in non-participant households (mean 47). In terms of remoteness, participant households are located closer to the main road and milk collection centers (MCC) (2.84 and 2.79km respectively) compared to non-participant household (5

LINE CLIPPING ALGORITHMS Line clipping is the process of removing lines/portions of lines that are outside of an area of interest. There are two main algorithms of line clipping namely: 1) Copen- Sutherland 2) Liang Barsky Copen – Sutherland This algorithm is used to detect and dispense with two trivial cases and in order to clip a line we are required to consider only the end points. When the endpoints of a specific line lie inside the window then it can be said to be trivially accepted and clipping
