WALGREENS February 23‚ 2014 FOR OL 421 STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT AND POLICY INTRODUCTION: It was in 1901 that Charles Walgreen Sr. opted to purchase the Chicago drugstore where he worked as a pharmacist (David‚ 2013). He offered his own drug line and expanded the drug store with other items (David‚ 2013). His success allowed him to open a second drug store by 1909; over 100 stores in the next nine years‚ went public with stock shares by 1933‚ and in 1946 Walgreens pursued a philanthropic

cipher‚ which was based on linear algebra applications. (Anton Rorres 719) Like other forms’‚ Hill cipher’s basic idea is that by using matrix multiplication‚ an original message – plaintext – will be converted into a coded message‚ called ciphertext. This converting process has three main steps: translating the message into a matrix‚ then multiplying with a cipher matrix to create the encrypted one‚ and finally converting it into letters. The very first step of transforming the given message into numbers

it involves geometric shapes which form special number patterns. The simplest of these is that of the square numbers (1‚ 4‚ 9‚ 16‚ 25 etc…) The diagram below shows the stellar triangular numbers until the 6th triangle. The next three numbers after T5 would be: 21‚ 28‚ and 36. A general statement for nth triangular numbers in terms of n is: The 6-stellar star‚ where there are 6 vertices‚ has its first four shapes shown below: The number of dots until stage S6: 1‚ 13‚ 37‚ 73‚ 121‚ 181
