What is '+' ? Addition? Modular addition? Logical OR? Concatenaton? Sometimes, any of these.
There where always be more concepts than distinct labels, since the space of concept is exponential combination (power set) of words.
- platz 13y agoI didn't say it had to be plus. I don't have the perfect answer, but append certainly seems like choosing a specific concept , rather than trying to come up with a more general name.
