Original research date March 2008 Growth of Muslim Population in Medieval India 1000 1800 is a book by K.S. Lal published in 1973. The book assesses the demographics of India between 1000 and 1500 AD. On the basis of the available historical evidence, K.S. Lal concluded that the population of India in 1000 was about 200 million and in 1500 AD 170 million. He says however that any study of the population of the precensus times can be based only on estimates, and estimates by their very nature tend to be tentative K.S. Lal estimates that about 60 to 80 million people died in India between 1000 and 1525 as a result of the Islamic invasion of India. He concluded that about 2 million people died during Mahmud of Ghazni s invasions of India pp. 211 217 . Criticism K.S. Lal s study of the demographic situation in medieval India was also criticized. Simon Digby criticized the book in a review in Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies The author is known for his detailed studies of the Khalji dynasty and of the fifteenth century Delhi Sultanate. He is well versed in the sources of medieval North Indian history. In the present study he has assembled almost all the conceivably relevant data and for this reason it will remain of value as a compendium of references. Yet the unknown variables are so great and the quality of the data yielded by our sources so poor that almost any detailed general estimates of population based upon them must appear wilful, if not fantastic. Historian Irfan Habib criticized the book in his Economic History of the Delhi Sultanate An Essay in Interpretation Habib 1978 . K.S. Lal wrote a reply to Irfan Habib s criticism in 1979 Lal 1979 and in 1999 Lal 1999 . References Irfan Habib. Economic History of the Delhi Sultanate An Essay in Interpretation 1978 K.S.

A growth chart is used by Pediatrics pediatricians and other health care providers to follow a child s growth over time. Growth charts have been constructed by observing the growth of large numbers of normal children over time. The human height height , weight , and head circumference of a child can be compared to the expected parameters of children of the same age and sex to determine whether the child is growing appropriately. Growth charts can also be used to predict the expected adult height and weight of a child because, in general, children maintain a fairly constant growth curve. When a child deviates from his or her previously established growth curve, investigation into the cause is generally warranted. For instance, a decrease in the growth velocity may indicate the onset of a chronic illness such as inflammatory bowel disease . Growth charts can also be compiled with a portion of the population deemed to have been raised in more or less ideal environments, such as nutrition ... . Growth charts are different for boys and girls, due in part to pubertal differences and disparity ... follow distinct growth curves which deviate significantly from normal children. As such, growth charts have been created to describe the expected growth patterns of several genetic diseases.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Log.svg thumb A graph of logarithmic growth In mathematics , logarithmic growth describes a phenomenon whose size or cost can be described as a logarithm function of some input. e.g. y C log x . Note that any logarithm base can be used, since one can be converted to another by a fixed constant. Logarithmic growth is the inverse of exponential growth and is very slow. A familiar example of logarithmic growth is the number of digits needed to represent a number, N , in positional notation , which grows as log sub b sub N , where b is the base of the number system used, e.g. 10 for decimal arithmetic. Another example is in cryptography , where the key cryptography key size needed to protect against a brute force attack for a certain period of time grows logarithmically with the desired protection interval. In the design of computer algorithm s, logarithmic growth, and related variants, such as log linear, or linearithmic , growth are very desirable indications of efficiency. Logarithmic growth can lead to apparent paradoxes, as in the martingale roulette system martingale roulette system, where the potential winnings before bankruptcy grow as the logarithm of the gambler s bankroll. It also plays a role in the St. Petersburg paradox . In microbiology , the rapidly growing exponential growth phase of a cell culture is sometimes called logarithmic growth. During this bacterial growth phase, the number of new cells appearing are proportional to the population.
