Exclude elements from mapping
I have had this problem way too often and still have not found a solution, yet. The example is as follows:
numbers = Range[1, 50];
(numbers = Delete[numbers, 50 - #];
#) & /@ numbers
Of course, this does not work as intended. The idea would be to get only the numbers from 1 to 25 as an output. But one cannot modify the part behind the /@. I am very aware of that. This shall only serve as an illustration of what I was hoping to find. Usually, the codes are more complex. But the problem remains the same: I want to exclude some elements from the mapping. But what elements I want to exclude is unclear during the initialization of the mapping.
So, my question is whether there is a known optimized solution to this problem. I have searched it but did not find anything.

Methods for producting alternating TickLabels in a Plot?
I am producing a plot which has alternating TickLabels. The ugly code I wrote to produce this was:
Ticks -> Table[{i, If[EvenQ[i], a, b]}, {i, Ceiling[#1], Floor[#2]}] &
Is there a shorter way to achieve this effect, perhaps using keywords like Automatic?

Probability of multivariate normal being positive on each coordinate
How can I find the probability that each coordinate of a specified multivariate normal distribution is positive? I tried the following, which I believed should work
mu = {0, 0, 0};
sigma = {{2, 1, 1}, {1, 2, 1}, {1, 1, 2}};
Probability[
x > 0 && y > 0 && z > 0, {x, y, z} \[Distributed]
MultinormalDistribution[mu, sigma]]
Unfortunately, for the output I just get the last line from the input (with mu and sigma replaced by their actual values). I don’t see where the problem could possibly be since the matrix is positive definite. If I replace it by the identity matrix everything works fine.

Updating a GUI with ComboBox using GUIKit
Dear Mathematica users,
does anyone know how I can update my existing Gui window (made with GUIKit) by choosing different values of a ComboBox so that different and multiple TextFields etc appear depending on the current value of the ComboBox. The created TextFields should appear in the same window below the ComboBox and they should update once the value of the ComboBox is changed.
I appreciate any help
Thanks, Dennis

Simplify power of KroneckerDelta
Don’t employ the simplification rule suggested in another proposed answer, since it will yield incorrect answers in many cases:
FullSimplify[KroneckerDelta[x, y]^2 f[x, y]/KroneckerDelta[x, y]]
(* f[x, y] KroneckerDelta[x, y] *)
Correct.
But if you apply the above rule:
rule = KroneckerDelta[x_, y_]^n_ /; n > 0 -> KroneckerDelta[x, y];
to the numerator and denomiator:
myg[x, y] = KroneckerDelta[x, y]^2 f[x, y];
myh[x, y] = KroneckerDelta[x, y];
as here,
mynewg[x, y] = myg[x, y] /. rule;
mynewh[x, y] = myh[x, y] /. rule;
then the original term becomes
FullSimplify[mynewg[x, y]/mynewh[x, y]]
(* f[x, y] *)
Incorrect.
In short: leave the powers of the KroneckerDelta unaltered.

VectorPlot3D – vectors starting at points
[unable to retrieve full-text content]
Normally the vectors in VectorPlot3D ar attached the middle. How to get them attached at the beginning (what is typical conventions in most textbooks) by use of VectorPlot3D ?
