New Data: Definition: $x_1$ (number) is the greatest element/maximum of the set (of numbers) $x_2$ under (partial) ordering $x_3$ Notes: x1 must be a set. If this word is being used as a function ($max$), common but lazy mathematical practice allows for speaking of "the maximum of a function" (including sequences) or to constrain the maximum with respect to certain variables, but these constraints can and properly ought to be incorporated into the definition of the set of which the maximum is being taken. This word is not limited to purely mathematical usage and the set can be defined loosely (such as in "the maximum number of people whom I permit to be invited" wherein the set x2 is understood to be the set of the possible acceptable numbers of guests allowed by the speaker). The maximum x1 must belong to set x2; compare with: {mecraizmana'u} (supremum). See also: {nacmecrai}. Jargon: Gloss Keywords: Word: maximum, In Sense: max Word: greatest number, In Sense: Word: greatest element, In Sense: Place Keywords: You can go to to see it.
