Encyclopædia:
Entries are in an alphabetical order and if there is an abbreviation
for a given term it is in parentheses after the term. Greek letters
are marked with their name in [ ]-brackets (such as [omega]).
(For Finnish readers: the usage of commas and decimal points is
international; i.e.: there is a full stop between integer and decimal
parts of a number, and a comma separating thousands, millions, etc.)
