Seattle talks.
The document describes a Cubic class for solving cubic equations. The class takes coefficients a, b, c, d as inputs. It uses various calculations and trigonometric functions to find the three roots of the cubic equation. The getRoots() method returns the three roots by first calculating intermediate values and then using them in formulas to solve for x1, x2, x3. The document also discusses using the __getattr__ special method to calculate attribute values on demand rather than upfront.
This document provides an overview of literary elements that will be used to analyze the Harry Potter book "Goblet of Fire". It defines concepts like setting, narrator perspective, protagonist, antagonist, internal and external conflicts, climax, and resolution.

This PowerPoint Jeopardy game template contains 5 categories (Roman City Roman Emperors, Architecture, Entertainment, Category 5) with questions about ancient Rome worth 10 to 50 points. The template includes questions about structures like the Colosseum and aqueducts, as well as topics like the first emperor and the hill the Capitoline was located on. Players would select a category and point value to reveal the question.
Santiago Paiva introduced the PATW (Presenting and Technical Writing) 2011 competition. The local competition will take place at Concordia University in May 2011, where undergraduate and graduate students from McGill, Concordia, and Polytechnique will present their research projects. Winners will advance to the Americas competition in Boston in September against teams from several cities, with one overall winner advancing to the global finals in London. Registration for the local competition is free and available on Santiago's website.
