Phrases 14
- absolute complementsplural of absolute complement: The set that contains exactly those elements belonging to the universal set but not to a given set.
- logical complementsplural of logical complement: The number, obtained by complementing every bit of a given number, which produces all ones when exclusive ored with the given number.
- numeric complementsplural of numeric complement: The number obtained by changing the numeric sign of a number. This may or may not be the twos complement, depending on the way numbers are stored.
- object complementsplural of object complement: A complement which is coupled to an object.
- ones' complementsplural of ones' complement: The number obtained by subtracting a given n-digit binary number from 2ⁿ-1 (which yields the same result as the logical complement).
- orthogonal complementsplural of orthogonal complement: The set of all vectors which are orthogonal to a given set of vectors.
- pseudo-complementsplural of pseudo-complement: The relative pseudo-complement of a given element (of a Heyting algebra) with respect to the least element — the "zero" of that algebra.
- relative complementsplural of relative complement: The set containing exactly those elements belonging to B but not to A.
- subject complementsplural of subject complement: A complement which is coupled to a subject.
- radix complementsplural of radix complement: The number which, added to the given n-digit number in radix r, results in rⁿ. In binary (r=2), this is the two's complement.
- relative pseudo-complementsplural of relative pseudo-complement: The residual operation of a Heyting algebra when considered as a residuated lattice whose monoid operation is the meet operation. Equivalently, the relative pseudo-complement of a with respect to b is …
- diminished radix complementsplural of diminished radix complement: The number which, added to the given n-digit number in radix r, results in rⁿ-1. In binary (r=2), this is the ones' complement; in decimal (r=10), this is the nines' complement.
- clausal complementsplural of clausal complement: A complement which is a dependent clause.
- two's complementsplural of two's complement: The number obtained by complementing every bit of a given number and adding one. A number and its complement add to 2ⁿ, where n is the word size of the machine.

- anticomplementsplural of anticomplement: The totality, the full amount or number which completes something.
- orthocomplementsplural of orthocomplement: An element of an ortholattice which is the result of applying an orthocomplementation function to a given element (of that ortholattice) (of which it is said to be the orthocomplement).
- pseudocomplementsplural of pseudocomplement: The relative pseudo-complement of a given element (of a Heyting algebra) with respect to the least element — the "zero" of that algebra.
