I.Q. (intelligence quotient) in general, is an assessment of your ability to think and reason. IQ score is a standardized way of comparing this ability with the majority of people the same age as you are. A score of 100 means that compared to these people in your general age group that you have basically an average intelligence. Most psychologists would say those scoring in a range of 95 to 105 are of a normal intelligence or have an average IQ. Actual IQ score may vary plus or minus five points since it is very difficult to get an IQ score with complete accuracy. Keep in mind, there are many outside factors that may have a negative impact on your score. For instance, if you are not feeling well at the time of taking the test. Or perhaps you are distracted by something on that particular day. These things may affect your score. Additionally, IQ is not the be all end all of a person\'s abilities in life. IQ score fails to measure things such as manual dexterity (obviously), musical talent, and a slew of other abilities that may lead one to many different successes in life. However, your score on an IQ test will give you a pretty accurate indication of the ability you possess to think, reason and solve problems which can often be critical in many phases of your life.

The YOUNG I ChING 太玄經 ORACLE , March 2023 From he computer program THE YOUNG I CHING, modeled on T'ai Hsüan Ching 太玄經 (English: Canon of Supreme Mystery), you can expect food for thought on how to cope with difficult situations. Start playing THE YOUNG I CHING (Mystery) as follows: 1. Contemplate your question before typing it in, starting with something like why, how come, etc., avoid questions that can only be answered with yes or no. 2. The computer provides the current date and time. 3. You’ll get an immediate answer including a number (more on these later), - done! Even if you get an answer to your question that you can't make head nor tail, do not reject it from the outset. Take your time - gain distance and relax while looking at the dreamlike background pictures - allow any association and try to playfully resolve the complications in your thoughts. Historical: It is believed that the Chinese scholar Yang Hsiung (also Yang Xiong, 53 B.C. - 18 A.D.) gave his T'ai Hsüan Ching ( 太玄經 Mystery) to the I Ching (周易, Chou I, or Changes) which he held in high esteem but was in danger of being forgotten, in order to give the latter new impetus. "By the first century B.C. the I Ching consisted of a set of sixty-four texts, each associated with a six line graph ( or "hexagram"), in which component lines could be either solid or broken (signifying yang if solid, yin if broken). Under each hexagram, there are six assigned texts, each of which corresponds to one line of the graphic symbol (hence, the "Line Texts"). The core text of the Mystery, like that of its prototype, the Changes, presents a series of linear complexes. For the hexagram of the Changes, however, the Mystery substitutes a four-line "tetragram" whose component parts read from top to bottom (i.e., in the opposite order from the Changes). Also in contrast to the Changes, where the lines are categorized as either yin (broken) or yang (unbroken), the divination procedure prescribed in Yang's instructions involves three possibilities for each line of the graph: (1) an unbroken line (correlated with Heaven), (2) a line broken once (representing Earth), or (3) a line broken twice (symbolizing Man as one of the triadic realms, living between Heaven and Earth)". Michael Nylan, "THE ELEMENTAL CHANGES", The Ancient Chinese Companion to The I Ching, translated by Michael Nylan, SUNY, New York, 1994. p.8. In addition to these appraisals, you will receive two numbers as the answer, a) that of the trigram and b) that of the appraisal, so that you can read the full version at Michael Nylan's correct translation. Method: a) An alphabetical code (a=1, b=2, and so on) is used to convert the letters in the question into numbers, which are then added. The sum (according to Shao Yong), is transformed into the upper bigram. b) The hour, month, and year are automatically obtained from the computer. A specific algorithm is applied in order to combine these with the day and convert them into the lower bigram (again according to Shao Yong). c) The numerical values of the lower and the upper bigram are the coordinates for finding the tetragram with the nine appraisals, one of which is determined as the answer by transforming hour and minute (freely according to Shao Yong's method). Texts: The basis of this app is that T'ai Hsüan Ching. Instead of my own words, without exception I have used proverbs and quotations from all over the world, whose fields of meaning either coincide or at least overlap with the key words of the appraisals. This eventually results in a relatively autonomous canon of answers, a Mystery- wordplay, so to speak, reminiscent of T'ai Hsüan Ching and I Ching and mimics its systematics so stringently so that I believe that it is justified to access it according to Shao Yong's guidelines . - And Yang Xiong would certainly have turned a blind eye to this as well.
