There are some omissions, reorderings for continuity and tweaks to make the story flow onstage, but the language of the play is Strout's.

The big picture: The modernization of cars, trucks, planes and public transit could be one of the greatest reorderings of civilization since the dawn of the horseless carriage.

It's easy to imagine a big-budget feature version of "Good Omens" that would lean into the sentimentality while also giving more striking visual treatment to Adam's accidental reorderings of the world, like the sudden emergence of Atlantis and the appearance of tunneling Tibetans in Lower Tadfield.

Representative sample for parallel coordinates. When used for statistical data visualisation there are three important considerations: the order, the rotation, and the scaling of the axes. The order of the axes is critical for finding features, and in typical data analysis many reorderings will need to be tried. Some authors have come up with ordering heuristics which may create illuminating orderings.

When a text is edited, its Burrows–Wheeler transform will change. Salson et al. propose an algorithm that deduces the Burrows–Wheeler transform of an edited text from that of the original text, doing a limited number of local reorderings in the original Burrows–Wheeler transform, which can be faster than constructing the Burrows–Wheeler transform of the edited text directly.

The play opens and closes completely normally—"Philip Glass" enters a bakery, where in passing he encounters an old love of his accompanied by a friend.Guernsey, Otis L. and Sweet, Jeffrey. All in the Timing The Best Plays of 1993-1994, Hal Leonard Corporation, 1994, , pp. 295-296 Between the two ends of this scene, in a long section marked by the ringing of a bell (a recurring device in Ives' plays), come rhythmic reorderings of the words used in the opening and closing.

In a well balanced segment, the partnered wagons may be moved around arbitrarily and, as long as parity is not destroyed, the meaning of the term stays the same. For example, in the above example, the applicator (M) can be brought to its abstractor [w], or the abstractor to the applicator. In fact, all commutatives and permutative conversions on lambda terms may be described simply in terms of parity- preserving reorderings of partnered wagons. One thus obtains a generalised conversion primitive for λ-terms in the De Bruijn notation.

Different permutations may be related by transformation, through the application of zero or more operations, such as transposition, inversion, retrogradation, circular permutation (also called rotation), or multiplicative operations (such as the cycle of fourths and cycle of fifths transforms). These may produce reorderings of the members of the set, or may simply map the set onto itself. Order is particularly important in the theories of composition techniques originating in the 20th century such as the twelve-tone technique and serialism. Analytical techniques such as set theory take care to distinguish between ordered and unordered collections.

Threads communicate primarily by sharing access to fields and the objects that reference fields refer to. This form of communication is extremely efficient, but makes two kinds of errors possible: thread interference and memory consistency errors. The tool needed to prevent these errors is synchronization. Reorderings can come into play in incorrectly synchronized multithreaded programs, where one thread is able to observe the effects of other threads, and may be able to detect that variable accesses become visible to other threads in a different order than executed or specified in the program.

The memory requirements for using a direct solver can then become a bottleneck in solving linear systems. One can combat this problem by using fill-reducing reorderings of the matrix's unknowns, such as the Minimum degree algorithm. An incomplete factorization instead seeks triangular matrices L, U such that A \approx LU rather than A = LU. Solving for LUx = b can be done quickly but does not yield the exact solution to Ax = b. So, we instead use the matrix M = LU as a preconditioner in another iterative solution algorithm such as the conjugate gradient method or GMRES.

The PC tree, developed by Wei-Kuan Shih and Wen-Lian Hsu, is a more recent generalization of the PQ tree. Like the PQ tree, it represents permutations by reorderings of nodes in a tree, with elements represented at the leaves of the tree. Unlike the PQ tree, the PC tree is unrooted. The nodes adjacent to any non-leaf node labeled P may be reordered arbitrarily as in the PQ tree, while the nodes adjacent to any non- leaf node labeled C have a fixed cyclic order and may only be reordered by reversing this order.

A PQ tree is a tree-based data structure that represents a family of permutations on a set of elements, discovered and named by Kellogg S. Booth and George S. Lueker in 1976. It is a rooted, labeled tree, in which each element is represented by one of the leaf nodes, and each non-leaf node is labelled P or Q. A P node has at least two children, and a Q node has at least three children. A PQ tree represents its permutations via permissible reorderings of the children of its nodes. The children of a P node may be reordered in any way.
