Quantum in the context of nodal reduction, represents change and a minute timeslice of processing. Also called Quanta in the singular, the processing is as close as possible O(1) and should certainly never be O(n).
- That's right we keep all language specific stuff O(1), and leave all higher-O to nodally reducable structure. --Nad 17:15, 19 Jun 2006 (NZST)
