cHaOS

The word itself means randomness
unorderliness and panic.

but when we speak about chaos theory it is the study of pseudo randomness ...ok ok if u feel sleepy already lets make it interesting

tadaaaaaaaaa

think about everything around you all that u see everyday

if u travel by the local trains ive got one example for u

in the morning time or rather the peak hrs wen the train is crowded can u predict ur position before u get inside....
let me tell u ..u cant
there are so many possibilities nearly infinite as to the ways u will get inside the train and till wat extent u'll go in where u'll stop etc etc

let us use one scientific term over here trajectory>> for the path followed or we can say ways in wich we get inside

thus let the way u get inside be ur initial condition

thus we can say that a slight change in our initial condition for this system >> referring to train

may cause a drastic change in our trajectory ...agreed

?

ok
i assume u have :P
so this system can be studied under chaos theory

the changes in the trajectories are termed as bifurcations *phew

now ull say why ..why god why hehe

but we are governed by CHAOS

our lives work on principle of chaos

we can summarize chaos as randomness which has an order

take an example of ur life

so many possibilties so unpredictable wats next can u knw...

just like a pebble in the whirlpool going down but poor chap dsnt knw how and wen will he reach there
