[[Siesta]] sleep generally consists of a long core at night and a shorter core (siesta nap) midday. Siesta sleep tends to have around 6-8 hours of total sleep time.
[[Siesta]] sleep generally consists of a long core at night and a shorter core (siesta nap) midday. Siesta sleep tends to have around 6-8 hours of total sleep time.
This schedule also belongs to the [[dual core]] category by the amount of cores, albeit the mechanism is quite different from segmented/bifurcated sleep. By the mechanism this schedule is mostly similar to core-only schedules, such as [[Triphasic]] sleep or [[QC0]].

[[Segmented]] sleep, sometimes denoted 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 ===
[[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.
