nonnumerical

Where it comes from

From non- + numerical.

adjective

not comparable Not numerical; containing data other than numbers. But a more searching analysis of some 450 of the 600 surviving khipu has called into question this interpretation. Although they were probably mainly accounting tools, a growing number of researchers now think that some khipu were nonnumerical and may have been an early form of writing.
not comparable Not using numerical techniques.
