Meanings
- A knot, knob, protuberance or swelling.
- The point where the orbit of a planet, as viewed from the Sun, intersects the ecliptic. The ascending and descending nodes refer respectively to the points where the planet moves from South to North and N to S; their respective symbols are ☊ and ☋.
- A leaf node.
- A computer or other device attached to a network.
- The point at which the lines of a funicular machine meet from different angular directions.
- The point at which a curve crosses itself, being a double point of the curve. See crunode and acnode.
- A similar point on a surface, where there is more than one tangent-plane.
- A vertex or a leaf in a graph of a network, or other element in a data structure.
- A hard concretion or incrustation which forms upon bones attacked with rheumatism, gout, or syphilis; sometimes also, a swelling in the neighborhood of a joint.
- A point along a standing wave where the wave has minimal amplitude.
- (rare) The knot, intrigue, or plot of a dramatic work.
- A hole in the gnomon of a sundial, through which passes the ray of light which marks the hour of the day, the parallels of the Sun's declination, its place in the ecliptic, etc.
- The word of interest in a KWIC, surrounded by left and right cotexts.
- A region of an electric circuit connected only by (ideal) wires (i.e. the voltage between any two points on the same node must be zero).
- A point in a parse tree that can be assigned a syntactic category label.
- A point in a cladogram from which two clades branch, representing the presumed ancestor.
