Grammage greater strength. Paper weight is sometimes stated using the "#" symbol. For example, "20#" means "20 pounds per basis ream of 500 sheets". When the density of a ream of paper is given in pounds, it is often accompanied by its "M weight". The M weight is the weight (in pounds) of 1000 cut sheets. Paper suppliers will often charge by M weight, since it is always consistent within a specific paper size, and because it allows a simple weight calculation for shipping charges. For example, a 500-sheet ream of 20# copy paper may be specified "10 M". 1000 cut
Many-one reduction problem is easy to solve. The many-one reduction is more effective at separating problems into distinct complexity classes. However, the increased restrictions on many-one reductions make them more difficult to find. Many-one reductions were first used by Emil Post in a paper published in 1944. Later Norman Shapiro used the same concept in 1956 under the name "strong reducibility". Suppose "A" and "B" are formal languages over the alphabets Σ and Γ, respectively. A many-one reduction from "A" to "B" is a total computable function "f" : Σ → Γ that has the property that each word "w" is in
