noun concatenations
- A series of links united; a series or order of things depending on each other, as if linked together; a chain, a succession. The Hebrew word for man in general is adam, the word for ground is adamah, and the word for red is adom; so that by a natural and almost necessary concatenation of causes we arrive at the conclusion that our first parent was modelled out of red earth.
- The application of these series of links. We also discuss the faults to which the intermediate systems that execute these concatenation tasks are liable; the consequences of such faults include end-to-end PDUs being misforwarded, proliferating without limit, or simply disappearing into “black holes.”
- The operation of joining multiple character strings.
- A character string formed by joining multiple character strings.
