Essential Numerical Methods with C Examples
Essential Numerical Methods with C Examples
1. Newton-Raphson (Nonlinear Equation)
Algorithm (Very Simple Version)
- Read starting guess (x)
- Read tolerance (how small the error should be)
- Repeat many times:
- Calculate function value f(x)
- Calculate slope f'(x)
- If slope is almost zero → stop (bad)
- New x = x − f(x) / f'(x)
- If change is very small → stop (found answer)
- Show the root

PGP Compression, Steganography & Network Security Tools
PGP Compression (Ultra-Compact Answer)
PGP performs compression before encryption to reduce message size and improve security. Compression removes redundancy so encrypted output becomes smaller, faster to transmit, and harder to analyze because repeated patterns disappear. The most commonly used algorithm is ZIP (LZ77-based) inside PGP. The process is: Message → Compression → Encryption → Transmission → Decryption → Decompression. Compression helps hide patterns in plaintext, making cryptanalysis

Physical Quantities and Measurement
Physical Quantity: A property of a body or phenomenon that can be measured and expressed by a number and a unit (e.g., 5 m, 10 s, 3 kg). It allows us to describe physical laws quantitatively. A physical quantity is defined either by specifying how it is measured or by stating how it is calculated from other measurable quantities.
Unit of Measurement: A standard reference used for comparing quantities of the same kind. Example: meter (m) for length, second (s) for

Functional Grammar: Clauses, Processes and Message Organization
Chapter 1 — Language and Meaning
Unit 1: Language and Meaning
Core idea: Language conveys meaning through grammar, context, and use. Functional grammar focuses on how linguistic form expresses communicative function, viewing language as a resource for making meaning in social interaction.
Key definitions
Language is a structured system for human communication. Functional grammar explains how forms such as words and clauses express functions such as meanings and actions. A communicative act or speech

Symbolic Capital in Hari Kunzru’s Deus Ex Machina
Symbolic Capital in Deus Ex Machina
In Hari Kunzru’s short story “Deus Ex Machina” (2005), critical attention often gravitates towards the narrator (a “Guardian Angel”), overlooking a subject more revealing from a cultural perspective: Christina. While the supernatural narrator frames the story, it is Christina’s journey that reflects the devastating pressure of the contemporary world. This essay argues that her actions are best understood not as romantic failures, but rather as the result of
