It seems the homework tag applies even if it is not actual homework

clarified the question
Nov 28, 2013 at 21:41 comment added user34914 Hey sorry I thought I might be a bit confusing. I'm very new to physics. Yes N is a function of n, which is time. It isn't t because t is for continuous evolution of time, whereas here time evolves in a stroboscopic manner. (I'm paraphrasing the book). Allowable means that the system is both deterministic and reversible. My question is, how is the equation N(n+1) = N(n)² not allowable. Hope this helps.
Nov 28, 2013 at 21:36 comment added JMJ perhaps you can rephrase what your question exactly is? Are you saying $N$ is a function of $n$, which itself is time (usually $t$)? What exactly does 'allowable' mean in this case? As it stands now it's a bit hard to understand what you're asking...
