 Idempotent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Given a binary operation, an idempotent element (or simply an idempotent) is something that when multiplied by (for a function, composed with) itself, gives itself as a result.
A unary operation (i.e., a function), is idempotent if, whenever it is applied twice to any element, it gives the same result as if it were applied once.
In this case, function composition (denoted "o") is a binary operation on X, and a function f : X → X is idempotent as a unary operator if and only if f o f = f, that is, if and only if f is an idempotent element of this binary operation.

 RTR's Win95Pak: Man Page for PERLOVL
Calling Conventions for Unary Operations Unary operation are considered binary operations with the second argument being undef.
This operation is called in the situations when a mutator is applied to a reference that shares its object with some other reference, such as $a=$b; $a++; To make this change to $a and not to change $b, a freshly made copy of $$a is made, and $a is assigned a reference to this object.
Although the copy constructor is specially designed to make overloading operations with references to an array simpler, as it now works it's useless for this because a subroutine cannot return an array in the same way as it returns a scalar (from the point of view of Perl internals).

 unary - a Whatis.com definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Sometimes a unary operation is called a monadic operation or a singulary operation.
This operation changes the value of the bit (binary digit) from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0.
In common arithmetic, the unary operators are negation, the reciprocal, and the absolute value.

 Groups - Alternative Definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
It's tempting to think that a set with an associative binary operation which satisfies both of these Laws must be a group, but it's not true.
If G is a finite set with an associative binary operation *, such that a * x = a * y implies x = y, and x * a = y * a implies x = y, then G is a group.
Now assume G is a set with associative operation *, such that, for a and b in G the equations a * x = b and y * a = b both have solutions x, y in G (not necessarily distinct).

An operation which acts upon one element is called a unary operation, an operation which acts upon two elements is called a binary operation.

Often binary and unary operations are defined for a set in the stricter sense that the set is closed under those operations.

 Practical Foundations of Mathematics
Although in the examples from geometry and physics the operations are untyped and always reversible, they illustrate that groups, monoids and categories not only are syntactic abstract algebraic structures, but also have a semantic influence.
A unary theory also describes a polyhedron in which the types are vertices, the operation-symbols are oriented edges and the laws are faces, though it need not be embeddable in R
In the case of a free unary theory, the maps are lists (Definition 2.7.2) of generators, though we postpone the proof to Theorem 6.2.8(a).

Unary minus and the following binary operators are allowed: + (addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication), / (division) and ^ (exponentiation).
The compiler is not case sensitive and space characters inserted between operands, operators, and functions are ignored.
Parentheses may be used to change the priority of operations, and comments may be appended to the end of an equation using the semicolon delimiter, e.g., “2.1*(1-exp(-a*x)); first order growth”.

 Formation of Expressions
A defined operator uses a symbol that is either the symbol for an intrinsic operator or is a new operator symbol.
Notice that the defined operators have fixed precedences; defined unary operators have the highest precedence of all operators and are all of equal precedence; defined binary operators have the lowest precedence, are all of equal precedence, and are combined left-to-right when in contexts of equal precedence.
As a consequence of the expression formation rules, unary operators cannot appear in a context of equal precedence; the precedence must be specified by parentheses.

 Kleene star - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematical logic and computer science, the Kleene star (or Kleene closure) is a unary operation, either on sets of strings or on sets of symbols or characters.
The Kleene star is often generalized for any monoid (M,.), that is, a set M and binary operation '.' on M such that
This is a generalization of the Kleene star discussed above since the set of all strings over some set of symbols forms a monoid (with string concatenation as binary operation).

 PERLOVL   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
If a method for an operation is not found, and $OVERLOAD{"fallback"} is TRUE or undefined, Perl tries to to autogenerate a substitute method for the missing operation based on defined operations.
The ++$a operation can be expressed in terms of $a+=1 or $a+1, and $a-- in terms of $a-=1 and $a-1.
The restriction for the comparison operation is that even if, for example, `cmp' should return a blessed reference, the autogenerated `lt' function will produce only a standard logical value based on the numerical value of the result of `cmp'.
