Lars, - | > than 4 can not be determined: such samples have to be discarded. | | Nit: s/can not/cannot/ | I would like to ask if we could keep it as it is, the suggestion confuses me: can is a verb, not the negation, cannot is spoken language, the document is written text. I actually replace everywhere I see this the other way around, since I read somewhere that cannot in written text is not considered good style. If you can give a rule for the above, I am willing to be educated on the matter.
