The manifoldness with which the fundamental units of time, length, and mass are involved in determining the units of other physical quantities
(n or v) The physical size of an object, or the process of documenting physical sizes The number of dimensions used to describe the object depends on whether length (1-D), area (2-D), or volume (3-D) is being measured Dimensioning can also refer to the measurement of size, location, and orientation of particular features on an object

Measure in a single line, as length, breadth, height, thickness, or circumference; extension; measurement; us
A "characteristic" of a surface, or a system of axes as usually expressed as a set or sets of numbers, i e , "The x dimension on a graph expresses the horizontal axes " A coordinate system is usually desired to express or locate a point on a surface X,Y,Z constitute three dimensions and can consist of numbers and locate a point in space

of a subspace: The dimension of a subspace W is the number of vectors in any basis of W (If W is the subspace {0}, we say that its dimension is 0 ) ON p307; Str S3 4 p144; AR7 p249-251
a vector of integers that describe the dimensionality and extent of the coordinate axes of an array
A broad grouping of descriptive data about a major aspect of an organization or group of individuals A dimension is defined by its parts: levels and categories Dimensions appear as drop down menus at the top of your browser window For example, "Product Line" is a dimension that is defined by the categories "Outdoor Products", "Environmental Line", and "GO Sport Line"
n 1 a non-negative integer indicating the number of objects an array can hold along one axis If the array is a vector with a fill pointer, the fill pointer is ignored {"The second dimension of that array is 7 "} 2 an axis of an array {"This array has six dimensions "}
