👉 In mathematics, a generalization is an extension of a particular concept or mathematical object beyond its original definition. It typically involves introducing new variables and relationships to the existing concepts or objects in the field. For example: 1. Generalized Function: A function that can be extended to work with any real number input, regardless of how small it might be. 2. Generalized Matrix: An abstract matrix with a different set of operations (such as addition, multiplication, transpose) than its standard form.
