Eighth note Eighth note An eighth note (American) or a quaver (British) is a musical note played for half the value of a quarter note (crotchet) and twice that of the sixteenth note (semiquaver), which amounts to one quarter the duration of a half note (minim), one eighth the duration of whole note (semibreve), one sixteenth the duration of a double whole note (breve), and one thirty-second the duration of a longa, hence the name. It is the equivalent of the "fusa" in mensural notation Eighth notes are notated with an oval, filled-in note head and a straight note stem with one
Time value of money on time value, and provides a simple introduction before considering more complicated and less familiar situations. This exposition follows . The fundamental change that the differential equation perspective brings is that, rather than computing a "number" (the present value "now"), one computes a "function" (the present value now or at any point in "future"). This function may then be analyzed—how does its value change over time—or compared with other functions. Formally, the statement that "value decreases over time" is given by defining the linear differential operator formula_37 as: This states that values decreases (−) over time (∂) at the discount
