[ adjective ] (mathematics) using or subjected to a methodology using algebra and calculus
Examples "analytic statics" Used in print (R. P. Jerrard, "Inscribed squares in plane curves"...)Consider a simple , closed , plane curve C which is a real analytic image of the unit circle , and which is given by **f . These are real analytic periodic functions with period T . We note that two such curves C and **f , cannot coincide at more_than a finite number of points ; otherwise , being analytic , they would coincide at all points , which is impossible since they do not coincide near **f . We know that in the C-plane both C and **f are analytic . Near Q , both curves can be represented by analytic functions of u . Related terms |

[ adjective ] using or skilled in using analysis (i.e., separating a whole--intellectual or substantial--into its elemental parts or basic principles)
Synonyms Examples "an analytic experiment" "an analytic approach" "a keenly analytic man" "analytical reasoning" Used in print (H. A. Gleason, "Review of African language studies...)Papers like these four , if widely read , will contribute importantly to improvement of our analytic work . These things have been disseminated by other means , but always in the wake of extensive publication of analytic results . However , any such suggestion accounts_for only some of the difficulties in hearing tone , or in developing a realistic attitude about tone , but not for the analytic difficulties that occur even when tone is meticulously recorded .
