Ec510 stuff (Economic Ideas )

I have given some improtant concepts of economics below in my attachments which are easy to understand as written in my own words.
I have also given some definitions in the comment section which are also easy to understand.
Economics is a very broad subject.
I am not a economist but would certainly like to learn and understand the concepts of different economist how they understood the economy of the country.
