Husserl proposed a radical new phenomenological way of looking at objects by examining how we, in our many ways of being intentionally directed toward them, actually " constitute " them ( to be distinguished from materially creating objects or objects merely being figments of the imagination ); in the Phenomenological standpoint, the object ceases to be something simply " external " and ceases to be seen as providing indicators about what it is, and becomes a grouping of perceptual and functional aspects that imply one another under the idea of a particular object or " type ".

The Euler – MacLaurin formula can be understood as a curious application of some ideas from Banach spaces and functional analysis.

In computer engineering, an execution unit ( also called a functional unit ) is a part of a CPU that performs the operations and calculations called for by the Branch Unit, which receives data from the CPU.

After designing their own fully functional replacement for the TRS-80 expansion interface ( which was never commercialized ) the company realized that they could do better than just re-designing the expansion interface.

His style in architecture and consumer goods was to be functional, cheap and consistent with mass production.

Since the early 1990s it was generalized in systemics for the investigation of functional human-like intelligence models, such as personoids, and, in parallel, developed as the SOAR environment.

Habitual knuckle-cracking was associated with manual labour, biting of the nails, smoking, and drinking alcohol and was suggested to result in functional hand impairment.

It was discontinued as a rank in these services during the postwar period, but as an appointment, the title " commodore " was then used to identify senior U. S.

Felix Hausdorff ( November 8, 1868 – January 26, 1942 ) was a German mathematician who is considered to be one of the founders of modern topology and who contributed significantly to set theory, descriptive set theory, measure theory, function theory, and functional analysis.

The usage of the word functional goes back to the calculus of variations, implying a function whose argument is a function and the name was first used in Hadamard's 1910 book on that subject.
