Its natural color is pale or dull yellow.          Note: Beeswax consists essentially of cerotic acid                (constituting the more soluble part) and of myricyl                palmitate (constituting the less soluble part).          2.

wiggles n.   [scientific computation] In solving partial    differential equations by finite difference and similar methods,    wiggles are sawtooth (up-down-up-down) oscillations at the shortest    wavelength representable on the grid.   If an algorithm is unstable,    this is often the most unstable waveform, so it grows to dominate    the solution.   Alternatively, stable (though inaccurate) wiggles can    be generated near a discontinuity by a Gibbs phenomenon.
