[5] : Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001)
infinite adj. common consisting of a large number of objects;
   extreme. used very loosely as in: "this program produces infinite
   garbage." "he is an infinite loser." the word most likely to follow
   `infinite', though, is hair. it has been pointed out that fractals
   are an excellent example of infinite hair. these uses are abuses of the
   word's mathematical meaning. the term `semi-infinite', denoting an
   immoderately large amount of some resource, is also heard. "this
   compiler is taking a semi-infinite amount of time to optimize my
   program." see also semi.

infinite
     
         1. bigger than any natural number.  there are
        various formal set definitions in set theory: a set x is
        infinite if
     
        i there is a bijection between x and a proper subset of x.
     
        ii there is an injection from the set n of natural numbers
        to x.
     
        iii there is an injection from each natural number n to x.
     
        these definitions are not necessarily equivalent unless we
        accept the axiom of choice.
     
        2. the length of a line extended indefinitely.
     
        see also infinite loop, infinite set.
