Liczbowy

Liczbowy is a Polish adjective meaning numerical or number-related. It is derived from the noun liczba (number) with the common adjectival suffix -owy, and is used to describe things that pertain to numbers rather than qualitative traits.

In common usage, liczbowy appears in mathematical, statistical, and computing contexts, as well as in everyday language. Examples include dane liczbowe (numeric data), wartości liczbowe (numeric values), and system liczbowy (numeral system). The term is often contrasted with qualitative terms such as jakościowy (qualitative) or with other descriptors depending on context; in computing and data processing it may appear alongside cyfrowy (digital) or numeryczny (numerical) depending on the nuance.

In science and education, liczbowy is used to classify or describe data types, measurements, and results that are expressed with digits. For instance, liczby całkowite (integers) and liczby rzeczywiste (real numbers) are described as having liczbowy character.

Notes: as a standalone name or surname, Liczbowy is rarely encountered and generally occurs only as a coined or descriptive surname in fiction or specialized contexts, not as a common personal name or place.
