Arithmetic. 2. Geometry, including Trigonometry
and Conic Sections. 3. Analysis, in which letters

hyperbolic geometry
(wn) | hyperbolic geometry

computational geometry
(foldoc) | computational geometry
The study of algorithms for combinatorial,
topological, and metric problems concerning sets of points,
typically in Euclidean space. Representative areas of
research include geometric search, convexity, proximity,
intersection, and linear programming.

CSG
(CSG) A method used in solid modeling to describe the
geometry of complex three-dimensional scenes by applying {set
operations} (union, difference, intersection) to primitive
shapes (cuboids, cylinders, prisms, pyramids, spheres and cones).
