Infinitesimal increment (Math.), an infinitesimally small
variation considered in Differential Calculus. See
Calculus.
Method of increments (Math.), a calculus founded on the
properties of the successive values of variable quantities
and their differences or increments. It differs from the
method of fluxions in treating these differences as
finite, instead of infinitely small, and is equivalent to
the calculus of finite differences.

[1913 Webster]
Unearned increment (Polit. Econ.), a increase in the value
of land due to no labor or expenditure on the part of the
owner, but to natural causes, such as the increase of
population, the growth of a town in the vicinity, or the
like. Some hold that this should belong to the nation.

increment operator (foldoc) | increment operator
++

decrement operator
A programming language unary operator that
adds one to its operand. Similarly, a decrement operator
subtracts one from its operand.
In the B programming language and its many descendents
(e.g. C, Perl, Java), the increment operator is written
"++" and decrement "--". They can be either prefix or
postfix, both of which return a value as well as changing
their operand. The prefix form, e.g. ++x, increments
variable x before returning its value whereas postfix, x++,
returns x's original value before it was incremented.
The expression ++x is equivalent to the assignment operator,
x += 1. There is no simple corresponding equivalent for x++.
These expressions, ++x, x++, x += 1 are almost equivalent to
the long form x = x + 1 except that the latter involves two
references to x. In the case of a simple variable, this makes
no difference but the operand can be any lvalue (something
that can be assigned to), including a complex pointer
expression whose value changes each time it is evaluated.
If the operand is a pointer then incrementing it (in any of
the above ways) causes it to point to the next element of its
specified type.
The name of the programming language C++ is a humourous use
of the postfix increment operator to imply that C++ is "one
better than" C.

incremental backup (foldoc) | incremental backup
A kind of backup that copies all files
which have changed since the date of the previous backup. The
first backup of a file system should include all files - a
"full backup". Call this level 0. The next backup could
also be a full level 0 backup but it is usually much quicker
to do a level 1 backup which will include only those files
which have changed since the level 0 backup. Together the
level 0 and level 1 backups will include the latest version of
every file. Level 1 backups can be made until, say, the
backup tape is nearly full, after which we can switch to level
2. Each level includes those files which have changed since
the last backup at a lower level. The more levels you use,
the longer it will take to restore the latest version of a
file (or all files) if you don't know when it was last
modified.
Compare differential backup.

incremental constraint solver (foldoc) | incremental constraint solver
A system in which a constraint solver is given constraints
one at a time by an inference engine (as is found in
Prolog). The solver adds the new constraint to an initially
empty set of solved constraints. If the new constraint is
consistent with the solved constraints it will be added to the
set. If it was inconsistent, the inference engine
backtracks. This is the basis of {Constraint Logic
Programming}.
