Computer


Definition:

  • (n.) One who computes.

  • (20) Computed tomography does not allow differentiation between these lesions and surrounding normal tissues.

Library


Definition:

  • (n.) A considerable collection of books kept for use, and not as merchandise; as, a private library; a public library.
  • (n.) A building or apartment appropriated for holding such a collection of books.
