I am a European citizen, working on an international assignment in Iran currently. I am travelling in a few days to the USA. I have a 10-year multiple-entry USA visa, which I got since I was in Iran for business.



Now I have residency, even if temporary. No need to hide that at immigration but I'm worried I might be denied boarding should I complete APIS with residency address in Iran. Should I choose my home country as residency and inform the immigration officer about Iran? Or no need to worry?

          You reside in Iran. You are therefore probably disqualified from using the visa waiver program. But you're not going to use it; you have a visa.



          There is nothing that would lead to an automatic denial of boarding because of residence in Iran. You shouldn't try to hide your residence. If you appear to be evasive, you will create more problems for yourself.



          I wouldn't go so far as to say that you have no need to worry. You'll probably get some extra questions about your activities in Iran. But claiming a different residence would almost certainly not help you, and it will probably hurt you.

          • @Daisy of course. They need to know the country that issued your passport to identify the passport. (Passport numbers are not necessarily unique across countries, although they should be unique for passports issued by the same country.) Besides, if you were an Iranian citizen, getting admitted to the US would be an entirely different matter. But there's no guarantee that they won't also transmit your Iranian address, or the number of your Iranian visa or residence document, to the US. Even if they do, however, there should be no problem.

          How can temperature be calculated given relative humidity and dew point?

          Image
          How can temperature be calculated given relative humidity and dew point? While looking into the better indicator of how miserable it feels outside, either dew point or relative humidity, I came across this statement: The optimum combination for human comfort is a dewpoint of about 60 F and a RH of between 50 and 70% (this would put the temperature at about 75 F). Source: http://www.theweatherprediction.com/habyhints/190/ This led me to this calculator that will calculate the temperature given relative humidity and dew point - for example a dew point of 70 degrees F and a relative humidity of 90% results in a temperature of 73.11 degrees F. The web site for this calculator says the values are based on the August-Roche-Magnus approximation and gives the following equation to calculate temperature: $T =243.04 Large fracfrac17.625 TD243.04+TD-lnleft(fracRH100right)17.625+lnleft(fracRH100right)- frac17.625 TD243.04+TD$ Given the equation I'm still having a hard time figuring out...

          I have a recursive function to validate tree graph and need a return condition I have a tree graph. Each node has attribute 'amount'. The rule governing the attribute value of root is this, The root 'amount' value is the sum of the 'amount' attribute of each of it's children. This continues to the last node with children. In other words this tree's attributes are unlike a sum tree, because the root node is not the sum of each node in the tree. Here is a toy example as graph G: nodedict = 'apples': 'amount': 5.0, 'bananas': 'amount': 10.0, 'tomato': 'amount': 50.0, 'total_fruits': 'amount': 15.0, 'total_vegetables': 'amount': 9.0, 'carrot': 'amount': 3.0, 'squash': 'amount': 6.0, 'total_fruits_and_vegetables': 'amount': 74.0 edgelist = [('total_fruits', 'apples'), ('total_fruits', 'bananas...
