Generation


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of generating or begetting; procreation, as of animals.

  • (n.) Race; kind; family; breed; stock.
  • (n.) The formation or production of any geometrical magnitude, as a line, a surface, a solid, by the motion, in accordance with a mathematical law, of a point or a magnitude; as, the generation of a line or curve by the motion of a point, of a surface by a line, a sphere by a semicircle, etc.
  • (n.) The aggregate of the functions and phenomene which attend reproduction.
