periodicity
Definition
- Periodic variation is a trademark of time that has long mystified ordinary people, inspired philosophers, and frustrated mathematicians. Through thousands of years, famines have alternated with prosperity, war with peace, ice ages with warming trends, among others, in a way that hinted at the existence of cycles.
