MATH.5:3 - Forces

ForceTension
Few generators and many compositesA compact assignment can govern arbitrarily large finite expressions, provided the extension rule is established.
Free construction and imposed equationsSyntax permits independent construction; equations identify expressions and restrict their possible images.
Preserved operations and retained informationA homomorphism can preserve composition while forgetting distinctions needed by another question.
Reusable translation and one calculationBuilding the general map costs more than evaluating one expression, but supports substitutions and repeated use.
