Everest is an excerpt from the story “Touch the Top of the World” by Erik Weihenmayer‚ while “To Climb the Devil’s Thumb” is a story by Jon Krakauer.

In the story‚ Stripe is born as a young caterpillar and begins to eat everything around him. Before long‚ he questions his purpose in life‚ thinking “There must

Abstract This experiment was conducted to observe the behaviour of a primate‚ to see the innate and learnt behaviour that the white cheeked gibbon showed. To complete this experiment all that had to be done was to observe a primate that lived in a group for half an hour‚ and record the behaviour of the animal every 30 seconds. This should be completed twice to get more accurate results and to see if the animal has different behaviours in the morning and in the afternoon. It was shown that in the

current techniques cannot discriminate between a lesion and an abscess .Our paper aims at distinguishing these two by astute measurement of their respective sizes using two algorithms –hill climbing algorithm‚ fuzzy C mean clustering algorithm aided by fundus photograph. Keywords: Abscission‚ Fuzzy C‚ Hill climbing‚ Endodontic therapy‚ Lesion‚ Gutta- percha. I INTRODUCTION Human teeth will be more prone to infection if it is void of any care.
