Affine space
Summary
An affine space is a set of points on which the vectors of a vector space act by translation. It keeps the ideas of lines, planes and parallelism from Euclidean geometry, but it has no origin, no distance and no angle.
What this node needs for W2
- edge not_instance_of in: at least one non-example (0 of 1)
- edge specializes both: the more general notions and the special cases (0 of 1)
The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.
What depends on this
