Jaundice The medical term for it is "icterus", from the Greek word "ίκτερος"; adjectival form, icteric. Jaundice Jaundice, also known as icterus, is a yellowish or greenish pigmentation of the skin and whites of the eyes due to high bilirubin levels. It is commonly associated with itchiness. The feces may be pale and the urine dark. Jaundice in babies occurs in over half in the first week following birth and in most is not a problem. If bilirubin levels in babies are very high for too long, a type of brain damage, known as kernicterus, may occur. Causes of jaundice vary
Initial condition even only a few iterations from an exact initial condition. Initial condition In mathematics and particularly in dynamic systems, an initial condition, in some contexts called a seed value, is a value of an evolving variable at some point in time designated as the initial time (typically denoted "t" = 0). For a system of order "k" (the number of time lags in discrete time, or the order of the largest derivative in continuous time) and dimension "n" (that is, with "n" different evolving variables, which together can be denoted by an "n"-dimensional coordinate vector), generally "nk" initial conditions are
