ordered tuplet


The conceptMathworldPlanetmath of ordered n-tuplet is the generalizationPlanetmathPlanetmath of ordered pairMathworldPlanetmath to n items. For small values of n, the following are used:

n𝑛𝑎𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑥𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒3triplet(a,b,c)4quadruplet(a,b,c,d)5quintuplet(a,b,c,d,e)6sextuplet(a,b,c,d,e,f)7septuplet(a,b,c,d,e,f,g)8octuplet(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h)9nonuplet(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i)10decuplet(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j)

This notion can be defined set-theoretically in a number of ways. For convenience, we shall express two of these definitions for quintuplets — it is perfectly easy to generalize them to any other value of n.

One possibility is to build n-tuplets out of nested ordered pairs. In the case of our example (a,b,c,d,e), the as a nested ordered pair looks like

(a,(b,(c,(d,e)))).

This form of is used in the programming language LISP.

Another possibility is to define n-tuplets as maps. In this way of thinking, a quintuplet is a function whose domain is the set {1,2,3,4,5}. In the case of our example, the function f in question is defined as

f(1)=af(2)=bf(3)=cf(4)=df(5)=e

Especially with the second interpretationMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath, one sees that a synonym for ”ordered tuplet” is ”finite sequence” or ”list”. For instance, a quintuplet can also be regarded as a sequence of five items or a list of five items.
