  • To employ one's abilities and knowledge as an engineer to design, construct, and/or maintain (something, such as a machine or a structure), usually for industrial or public use. 

  • To plan or achieve (a goal) by contrivance or guile; to finagle, to wangle. 

noun
  • A person who drives or operates a locomotive; a train driver.

  • A person who operates a steam engine; specifically (nautical), a person employed to operate the steam engine in the engine room of a ship. 

graph

verb
  • To draw a graph of a function. 

  • To draw a graph. 

noun
  • A topological space which represents some graph (ordered pair of sets) and which is constructed by representing the vertices as points and the edges as copies of the real interval [0,1] (where, for any given edge, 0 and 1 are identified with the points representing the two vertices) and equipping the result with a particular topology called the graph topology. 

  • A set of vertices (or nodes) connected together by edges; (formally) an ordered pair of sets (V,E), where the elements of V are called vertices or nodes and E is a set of pairs (called edges) of elements of V. See also Graph (discrete mathematics) on Wikipedia.Wikipedia 

  • A graphical unit on the token-level, the abstracted fundamental shape of a character or letter as distinct from its ductus (realization in a particular typeface or handwriting on the instance-level) and as distinct by a grapheme on the type-level by not fundamentally distinguishing meaning. 

  • A data chart (graphical representation of data) intended to illustrate the relationship between a set (or sets) of numbers (quantities, measurements or indicative numbers) and a reference set, whose elements are indexed to those of the former set(s) and may or may not be numbers. 

  • A set of points constituting a graphical representation of a real function; (formally) a set of tuples (x_1,x_2,…,x_m,y)∈ R ᵐ⁺¹, where y=f(x_1,x_2,…,x_m) for a given function f: R ᵐ→ R . See also Graph of a function on Wikipedia.Wikipedia 

  • A morphism 𝛤_f from the domain of f to the product of the domain and codomain of f, such that the first projection applied to 𝛤_f equals the identity of the domain, and the second projection applied to 𝛤_f is equal to f.
