Senary

Involving six operands, arguments, entities, or components.


Core Idea

six entities/components + one relation/action

General Structures

Predicate(a, b, c, d, e, f)
Relation(U, V, W, X, Y, Z)
Action(agent, object, source, destination, method, time)
Transfer(sender, receiver, item, medium, location, timestamp)

Conceptual Pattern

X acts on Y from/to/with/by Z and W at T

Send(user, file, laptop, server, SSH, midnight)
Cook(chef, rice, milk, pot, fire, evening)

Programming Examples

HTTP Request With Retry

fetch(url, method, headers, body, timeout, retries)

Conceptual form:

Fetch(url, method, headers, body, timeout, retries)

Six components:

  • URL
  • method
  • headers
  • body
  • timeout
  • retry count

Drawing Object

drawRect(x, y, width, height, color, opacity)

Conceptual form:

DrawRect(x, y, width, height, color, opacity)

File Upload

upload(user, file, server, folder, permission, timestamp)

Conceptual form:

Upload(user, file, server, folder, permission, timestamp)

Database Insert

INSERT(user, table, values, timestamp, mode, source)

Conceptual abstraction:

Insert(user, table, values, timestamp, mode, source)

Sentence Conversion
