  3. (programming) A section of a program; a subroutine or group of subroutines.

  5. A pre-prepared adventure scenario with related materials for a role-playing game.

Usage notes

  • (abelian group equipped with multiplication by an element of a ring):
    • For a given ring R, one speaks of an "R-module" or, equivalently, of a "module over R". R is expected to be unital.
    • R may also be a Lie algebra.
    • If K is a field, "K-module" is identical to "K-vector space".
    • If the ring is not commutative, scalar multiplication of a module is defined as left- and/or right-multiplication, and one refers to a "left R-module" or a "right R-module".
    • The concept of module is closely connected to the representation theory of groups and is central to both commutative algebra and homological algebra. Modules are also widely used in algebraic geometry and algebraic topology.

Hyponyms
