Paradox Gradient Examples — RTT/1

Example Dictionary for the Paradox Gradient Analyzer (PGA)#

These examples illustrate how the Paradox Gradient Analyzer (PGA) detects, computes, and maps paradox gradients across conceptual, computational, physical, and dimensional regimes.

Each example demonstrates one or more PGA operators:

PGA‑Detect
PGA‑Gradient
PGA‑Intensity
PGA‑Source
PGA‑Field
PGA‑Resolve

Examples are grouped by paradox type.
