| * Picture a ''k''-adic relation ''L'' as a body that resides in a ''k''-dimensional space ''X''. If the domains of the relation ''L'' are ''X''<sub>1</sub>, …, ''X''<sub>''k''</sub> , then the ''extension'' of the relation ''L'' is a subset of the cartesian product ''X'' = ''X''<sub>1</sub> × … × ''X''<sub>''k''</sub> . | | * Picture a ''k''-adic relation ''L'' as a body that resides in a ''k''-dimensional space ''X''.
