Example of Classification

Eggs The four consumer grades for eggs, U.S. Grade AA, A, B, and C, refer to specific interior qualities as defined by the United States Standards for Quality of Individual Shell Eggs. Grades Grades AA and Grade A eggs are of top quality. They have a large proportion of thick white of which stands up well around a firm high yolk and they are dedicated in flavor. These high quality eggs are good for all uses, but you will find that their upstanding appearance and fine flavor make them especially appropriate for poaching, frying, and cooking in the shell. Grade B and Grade C eggs are good eggs, though they differ from higher quality eggs in several ways. Most of the white is thin and spreads over a wide area when broken. The yolk is rather flat, and may break easily. Eggs of the two lower qualities have dozens of uses in which appearance and delicate flavor are less important. They are good to use in baking, for scrambling, in thickening sauces and salads dressing, and combining with other goods such as tomatoes, cheese or onions. Weights Six U.S Weight Classes cover the full range of egg sizes. Only 4 of these 6 classes are likely to be fonud on the retail market Extra Large, Large, Medium, and Small. The other two are Jumbo and Peewee. Each of these size names refers to a specific weight class, based on the total weight of a dozen eggs. The weight for dozen eggs in each class, in ounces, are as follows: Jumbo 30, Extra Large 27, Large 24, Medium 21, Small 18, Peewee 15. The grade letters (U.S Grade A, etc.) indicate quality only. The weight class is stated separately and it indicate the weight of the dozen in ounces. Grade A eggs have the same quality whether they are small or large. The only

difference is weight. Grade A eggs are not necessarily large; large eggs are not necessarily Grade A.

B. Example of Partition

Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance A motorcycle may be divided for purposes of classical rational analysis by means of its component assemblies and by means of its functions. If divided by means of its components assemblies, its most basic division is into a power assembly and a running assembly. The power assembly may be divided into the engine and the power-delivery system. The engine will be taken up first. The engine consists of a housing containing a power train, a fuel-air system, an ignition system, a feedback system and a lubrication system. The power train consists of cylinders, pistons, connecting rods, a crankshaft and a flywheel. The fuel air system components, which are part of the engine, consist of a gas tank and filter, an air cleaner, a carburetor, valves and exhaust pipes. The ignition system consist of an alternator, a rectifier, a battery, a highvoltage coil and spark plugs. The feedback system consists of a cam chain, a camshaft, tappets and a distributor. The lubrication system consists of an oil pump and channels throughout the housing for distribution of the oil. The power-delivery system accompanying the engine consists of a clutch, a transmission and a chain.

The supporting assembly accompanying the power assembly consists of a frame, including foot pegs, seat and fenders; a steering assembly; front and rear shock absorbers; wheels; control levers and cables; lights and horns; and speed and mileage indicators. Thats a motorcycle divided according to its components. To know what the components are for, a division according to functions is necessary: A motorcycle may be divided into normal running functions and special, operator-controlled functions. Normal running functions may be divided into functions during the intake cycle, functions during the comprehension cycle, functions during the power cycle and functions during the exhaust cycle. And so on. I could go on about which functions occur in their proper sequence during each of the four cycles, then go on the operator-controlled functions and that would be a very summary description of the underlying form of a motorcycle. It would be extremely short and rudimentary, as description of this sort go. Almost any one of the components mentioned can be expanded on indefinitely. Ive read an entire engineering volume on contact points alone, which are just a small but vital part of the distributor. There are other types of engines than the single-cylinder Otto engine describe here: two-cycle engines, multiple-cycle engines, diesel engines, Wankel engines but this example is enough.
