      Synonyms:∈,⊂,⊆(depending on context)

      The statement${\displaystyle f(x)=O(lo{g}^{2}x)}$ means that as${\displaystyle x}$ gets arbitrarily large,${\displaystyle f(x)}$ will never grow faster than some constant multiple of${\displaystyle lo{g}^{2}x}$.

3. (chemistry) A doublebond; a chemical bond between two chemicalelements involving four bondingelectrons instead of the usualtwo.
