Spider \Spi"der\, n.[OE. spi[thorn]re, fr. AS. spinnan to spin;       -- so named from spinning its web; cf. D. spin a spider, G.       spinne, Sw. spindel. Seee {Spin}.]       1. (Zo[94]l.) Any one of numerous species of arachnids             comprising the order Araneina. Spiders have the mandibles             converted into poison fangs, or falcers. The abdomen is             large and not segmented, with two or three pairs of             spinnerets near the end, by means of which they spin             threads of silk to form cocoons, or nests, to protect             their eggs and young. Many species spin also complex webs             to entrap the insects upon which they prey. The eyes are             usually eight in number (rarely six), and are situated on             the back of the cephalothorax. See Illust. under             {Araneina}.          Note: Spiders are divided into two principal groups: the                Dipneumona, having two lungs: and the Tetrapneumona,                having four lungs. See {Mygale}. The former group                includes several tribes; as, the jumping spiders (see                {Saltigrad[91]}), the wolf spiders, or {Citigrad[91]}                (see under {Wolf}), the crab spiders, or                {Laterigrad[91]} (see under {Crab}), the garden, or                geometric, spiders, or {Orbitell[91]} (see under                {Geometrical}, and {Garden}), and others. See {Bird                spider}, under {Bird}, {Grass spider}, under {Grass},                {House spider}, under {House}, {Silk spider}, under                {Silk}.          2. (Zo[94]l.)

Categorical Abstract Machine Language          (Originally "CAML" - Categorical Abstract Machine       Language) A version of {ML} by G. Huet, G. Cousineau, Ascander       Suarez, Pierre Weis, Michel Mauny and others of {INRIA} and       {ENS}. CAML is intermediate between {LCF ML} and {SML}       [in what sense?].       It has {first-class} functions, {static type inference} with       {polymorphic} types, user-defined {variant types} and {product       types}, and {pattern matching}.   It is built on a proprietary       run-time system.          The CAML V3.1 implementation added {lazy} and {mutable} data       structures, a "{grammar}" mechanism for interfacing with the       {Yacc} {parser generator}, {pretty-printing} tools,       high-performance {arbitrary-precision} arithmetic, and a       complete library. CAML V3 is often nicknamed "heavy CAML",       because of its heavy memory and CPU requirements compared to       {Caml Light}.          in 1990 Xavier Leroy and Damien Doligez designed a new       implementation called {Caml Light}, freeing the previous       implementation from too many experimental high-level features,       and more importantly, from the old Le_Lisp back-end.          Following the addition of a {native-code} compiler and a       powerful {module} system in 1995 and of the {object} and       {class} layer in 1996, the project's name was changed to       {Objective Caml}.          ["The CAML Reference Manual", P.

category          A category K is a collection of objects, obj(K), and       a collection of {morphisms} (or "{arrows}"), mor(K) such that          1. Each morphism f has a "typing" on a pair of objects A, B       written f:A->B.   This is read 'f is a morphism from A to B'.       A is the "source" or "{domain}" of f and B is its "target" or       "{co-domain}".          2. There is a {partial function} on morphisms called       {composition} and denoted by an {infix} ring symbol, o.   We       may form the "composite" g o f : A -> C if we have g:B->C and       f:A->B.          3. This composition is associative: h o (g o f) = (h o g) o f.          4. Each object A has an identity morphism id_A:A->A associated       with it.   This is the identity under composition, shown by the       equations id_B o f = f = f o id_A.          In general, the morphisms between two objects need not form a       {set} (to avoid problems with {Russell's paradox}).   An       example of a category is the collection of sets where the       objects are sets and the morphisms are functions.          Sometimes the composition ring is omitted.   The use of       capitals for objects and lower case letters for morphisms is       widespread but not universal.   Variables which refer to       categories themselves are usually written in a script font.          (1997-10-06)
