  2. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    In such a 2D diagram of a 3D coordinate system, the z-axis would appear as a line or ray pointing down and to the left or down and to the right, depending on the presumed viewer or camera perspective. In any diagram or display, the orientation of the three axes, as a whole, is arbitrary.

  3. Cartesian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian

    Cartesian diagram, a construction in category theory; Cartesian geometry, now more commonly called analytic geometry; Cartesian morphism, formalisation of pull-back operation in category theory; Cartesian oval, a curve; Cartesian product, a direct product of two sets; Cartesian product of graphs, a binary operation on graphs

  4. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    A representation of a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. In geometry, a three-dimensional space (3D space, 3-space or, rarely, tri-dimensional space) is a mathematical space in which three values (coordinates) are required to determine the position of a point.

  5. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    A diagram representing a two-state Markov chain. The states are represented by 'A' and 'E'. The numbers are the probability of flipping the state. Discrete mathematics, broadly speaking, is the study of individual, countable mathematical objects. An example is the set of all integers. [42]

    Affinity wall diagram. The affinity diagram is a business tool used to organize ideas and data. It is one of the Seven Management and Planning Tools.People have been grouping data into groups based on natural relationships for thousands of years; however, the term affinity diagram was devised by Jiro Kawakita in the 1960s [1] and is sometimes referred to as the KJ Method.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_diagram

    Euler diagram illustrating that the set of "animals with four legs" is a subset of "animals", but the set of "minerals" is a disjoint set (it has no members in common) with "animals" Euler diagram showing the relationships between different Solar System objects

    Leonid Kantorovich John von Neumann. The problem of solving a system of linear inequalities dates back at least as far as Fourier, who in 1827 published a method for solving them, [4] and after whom the method of Fourier–Motzkin elimination is named.
