relation
     
        1.  A subset of the {product} of two sets, R : A
        x B.  If (a, b) is an element of R then we write a R b,
        meaning a is related to b by R.  A relation may be:
        {reflexive} (a R a), {symmetric} (a R b => b R a),
        {transitive} (a R b & b R c => a R c), {antisymmetric} (a R b
        & b R a => a = b) or {total} (a R b or b R a).
     
        See {equivalence relation}, {partial ordering}, {pre-order},
        {total ordering}.
     
        2.  A {table} in a {relational database}.
