NOTE F EARNINGS PER SHARE DATA

The following table sets forth the denominator for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
(in thousands)	July 28, 2013	July 29, 2012	July 28, 2013	July 29, 2012
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	264,605	263,359	264,472	263,638
Dilutive potential common shares	6,164	5,387	5,758	5,500
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	270,769	268,746	270,230	269,138

For the third quarter and nine months ended July 28, 2013, one thousand and 0.5 million weighted-average stock options were not included in the computation of dilutive potential common shares since their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per share, compared to 2.6 million and 2.1 million for the third quarter and nine months ended July 29, 2012.
