In Waiting for Godot‚ Beckett uses many pauses‚ silences‚ and ellipses (three dots (...) used to create a break in speech) to express a feeling of waiting and unsureness. There is a twofold purpose behind this technique. For one‚ it shows that Vladimir and Estragon‚ the two main characters who are waiting for Godot

Ptolemy believed that Earth was the center of the universe and that everything revolved around it. He believed that the stars were lights attached to a crystal sphere that spun around the Earth. He thought that the planets traveled on spheres of their own. To account for the more subtle motions‚ Ptolemy believed that each planet also moved on a smaller sphere - an epicycle. ------------------------------------------------- Two commonly made observations supported the idea that Earth was the center

MECHANICS OF CONFINEMENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Preliminary Remarks Confinement of columns by means of FRP jackets is done by retraining the dilation of concrete by wrapping the fibers in the hoop direction of concrete columns. Confinement of columns by FRP wraps is termed as a passive strengthening technique since the fibers do not play any role in the elastic response of the axially loaded column. The tendency of concrete to

1. As seen from temperate or tropical latitudes‚ the positions of the constellations shift gradually westward in the sky from night to night because (a) the Earth rotates on its axis. (b) the Earth revolves around the Sun. (c) the tilt of the Earth’s axis changes. (d) their right ascensions constantly change. (e) their declinations constantly change. 2.

use of first person helps the reader further understand the character’s dilemma. In the first paragraph‚ Peattie uses organization and selection of detail to convey a sense of calmness. Organizationally‚ Peattie achieves this calmness by using ellipses to break up the first sentence. “After sunset… I walked out into the desert…” (Peattie 5). The sense of calmness becomes even more evident because the character believes that he “was the only thing abroad” (Peattie 5). However‚ this calmness gets

Ballads typically tell stories; this is a story symbolizing a way of life. Throughout the poem several ellipses are used to add suspense to the poem‚ by shortened sentences. Within each stanza there is a change in events. At the start of the poem lots of chaos is going on‚ and by the end it becomes a calmer surrounding. The language used within the poem is

(ECC) Mathematical basis of ECC Elliptic Curve is a set of solutions (x‚ y) to an equation of the form y2=x3+ax+b where 4a3+27b2≠0‚ together with a point at infinity denoted O. Elliptic Curve originally developed to measure circumference of an ellipse and now have been proposed for applications in cryptography due to their group law and because so far no sub exponential attack on their discrete logarithm problem. Cryptography based on elliptic curves depends on arithmetic involving the points of
