ekvivalenco
Ekvivalenco, also spelled equivalency, is a term used in various fields to denote the state of being equal or interchangeable. The concept of ekvivalenco is fundamental in mathematics, logic, and computer science, where it refers to the property of two expressions, functions, or objects being equivalent in some sense. In mathematics, for example, two expressions are equivalent if they yield the same result for all values of their variables. This is often denoted by the symbol "≡". In logic, ekvivalenco refers to the logical equivalence of two statements, meaning they have the same truth value under all possible interpretations. In computer science, ekvivalenco is used to describe the equivalence of algorithms or data structures in terms of their performance or functionality. The principle of ekvivalenco is also applied in other fields such as linguistics, where it refers to the interchangeability of words or phrases with similar meanings, and in economics, where it refers to the equality in value or worth of different goods or services.
