Template data:Term

Concept

At the time of writing I am deciding on terminology regarding zero-divisors, one school uses "non-zero divisors of zero" - so that "divisors of zero" may include zero, another school uses "zero-divisors" to be by definition non-zero.

I do not have enough information to choose, this is where the term template comes in to play.

By writing:

• "Let [ilmath]u\in R[/ilmath] be a {{term|nzdoz|t=number}}"

We will allow "nzdoz" (non-zero divisors of zero) in the theory=number space to be replaced with whatever term we actually end up using.

• Thus the above sample could render as:
  1. "Let [ilmath]u\in R[/ilmath] be a non-zero divisor of zero" or
  2. "Let [ilmath]u\in R[/ilmath] be a zero-divisor"

Work will be done to make this work similarly to Template:Link, eg:

• {{term|nzdoz|s|t=number}} will substitute the plural

Parameters

If the first parameter (the term itself) starts with a capital letter, so shall the first of the substitution - allowing the term to be used at the start of sentences

The second parameter may be used for plural indication

• s=Number Theory - the subject
• t=number - short for s={{{t}}} Theory - NOTE: make use of {{ucfirst:string}}

Listing format

Suppose we have a term X belonging to A Theory and B Theory, then two pages exist in the list:

1. /List/X (A Theory) and
2. /List/X (B Theory)
