Ask Prometheusa set of points with regular arrangement in space
Line (noun) means: a set of points with regular arrangement in space. It emerges from sets, pattern, space, arrangement: the grouped points maintain a consistent spatial arrangement through regular placement in extent. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 12, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
Examples
- The Great Wall of China extends 21,196 km in a continuous line across northern China. engineering
- The alignment of the Pyramids of Giza follows a precise north-south line within 0.05 degrees. architecture
- Laser interferometer beams form a straight line over 4 km in LIGO’s gravitational wave detection. physics
