👉 In mathematics, the term "prodromic" is often used to describe a small, irregularly shaped object that is part of a larger structure or pattern. It's similar to a dot or a point in geometry and can be found on a map or in a diagram. For example, in a graph, an "ornament" (a prodromic dot) could represent a point or a line segment that is not fully connected yet, but it's still part of the larger structure.
