=== Segmented ===
[[Segmented]] sleep, sometimes denoted as DC0 (dual core with zero naps), has one core sleep generally around dusk and one core sleep generally around dawn a few hours after the end of the dusk core. Segmented sleep tends to have around 6-8 hours of total sleep time.

This schedule belongs to the [[dual core]] category both by the amount of cores and by the mechanism of segmentation and is a nice starting point for the gradual adaptation to DC schedules.

[[E1]] or Everyman 1 consists of a long core at night and a nap midday. It tends to have around 6-8 hours of total sleep time as well.
{{E1}}
[[E1]] or Everyman 1 consists of a long core at night and a nap midday. It tends to have around 6-7 hours of total sleep time as well. An extended version is possible for [[Age|underaged]] people as well as those with higher sleep requirements.


This schedule also belongs to the [[everyman]] category both by the amount of cores and by the mechanism of replacing one sleep cycle with one nap, and is a nice starting point for the gradual adaptation to Everyman schedules.
