The term ''notation'' can be used in several contexts. Commonly, "notation" refers to the typographical conventions or rules of symbol usage that are followed, e.g., within a book or article. Notation may refer to ''notation systems'', meaning an interpreted system of tokens having a syntax and semantics. ;Examples of this typographical conventions include: * Infix notation for representing calculations in an almost linguistic format, such as ''a+b-c'' * Prefix notation or Polish notation, which places the operator before the operands, such as ''+ a b'' * Postfix notation or reverse Polish notation, which places the operator after the operands, such as ''a b +'' * Numeral systems, notation for writing numbers, including ** Positional notation, which made writing numbers more systematic than a tally mark method like Roman numerals ** binary notation, a positional notation in base two ** decimal notation, a positional notation in base ten ** scientific notation for expressing large and small numbers * See also Table of mathematical symbols - for general tokens and their definitions. ;Examples of ''notation systems'' * In mathematics, mathematical notation is used to represent mathematical ideas, such as: ** Conway chained arrow, Knuth's up-arrow notation and Steinhaus polygon notation are systems to iterate exponentiation, for representing veryveryvery large numbers. ** Cartesian coordinate system, for representing position and other spatial concepts in analytic geometry ** Leibnitz notation is the standard representation for Calculus ** Big O notation, used for example in analysis to represent less significant elements of an expression, to indicate that they will be neglected ** Z notation - a formal notation for specifying objects using Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory and first-order predicate logic * In physics physics notation: ** In quantum mechanics, Dirac's Bra-ket notation is another representation of probability amplititudes ** In general relativity, for example, Tensor notation is a general way to represent a gravitational field * In chemistry, the Lewis notation denotes chemical bond * Musical notation - to represent music in a musical composition * Dance notation - to document various forms of is used to dance movement such as Labanotation, Benesh Notation, and Eshkol-Wachman notation.
