Reference excerpt

Siniša Stanković (Serbian: Синиша Станковић; Serbian pronunciation: [sǐniʃa stǎːŋkoʋitɕ]; 26 March 1892 – 24 February 1974) was a Yugoslav and Serbian scientist and politician. As a prominent biologist, he became member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. As a politician and statesman, from 1944 to 1946, he was the most senior state official of Serbia, then a federated state within Yugoslavia, and the 1st President of the Presidency of the National Assembly of Serbia.

Biography He served as President of the Presidency of the Anti-fascist Assembly for the National Liberation of Serbia (ASNOS), from November 1944 to April 1945, and then as President of the Presidency of the National Assembly of Serbia, from April 1945 to November 1946. In that post, he was the head of state of Serbia, and as such the first non-royal head of state in that country. Stanković was born in Zaječar, Kingdom of Serbia and died in Belgrade, SFR Yugoslavia. He graduated from the University of Belgrade and Grenoble University. As a prominent biologist, he became member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. He was founder of Institute for ecology and biogeography, and director of the Biological Institute of Serbia. He had a long career in the Serbian and Yugoslav communist parties. During the Second World War he was member of communist Partisan movement. One species of pseudoscorpion is named after him as (lat. Neobisium stankovici).

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Siniša Stanković

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Siniša Stanković claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Siniša Stanković before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Siniša Stanković ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Siniša Stanković

In research: Siniša Stanković appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Siniša Stanković in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Siniša Stanković is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1892 births, 1974 deaths, League of Communists of Serbia politicians, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Siniša Stanković outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
