For every genotype, phenotypic trait, and environmental variable, a different norm of reaction can exist ; in other words, an enormous complexity can exist in the interrelationships between genetic and environmental factors in determining traits.

More formally, the complexity of a string is the length of the shortest possible description of the string in some fixed universal description language ( the sensitivity of complexity relative to the choice of description language is discussed below ).

The term was coined by Fanya Montalvo by analogy with NP-complete and NP-hard in complexity theory, which formally describes the most famous class of difficult problems.

More formally, a problem p is called hard for a complexity class C under a given type of reduction, if there exists a reduction ( of the given type ) from any problem in C to p. If a problem is both hard for the class and a member of the class, it is complete for that class ( for that type of reduction ).

Too many records seem to reduce a work of symphonic complexity to a melody and its accompaniment.

But evolution is a non-directional process, and while increased complexity is a common effect, there is no reason why evolution cannot tend towards simplicity if that makes an organism better suited to its environment.

* The hypothalamus is a small region at the base of the forebrain, whose complexity and importance belies its size.

It is most commonly believed that complexity in the behavior of an organism is correlated to the complexity of its nervous system.

While still tightly linked to the court culture and absolutism, with its formality and emphasis on order and hierarchy, the new style was also a cleaner style — one that favored clearer divisions between parts, brighter contrasts and colors, and simplicity rather than complexity, and the typical orchestra size increased.

A problem is a member of co-NP if and only if its complement is in the complexity class NP.

As a result, the growth was accompanied by growing pains: project failure was common, and the field of computer science was still in its early years, and the ambitions for project scale and complexity exceeded the market capability to deliver adequate products within a planned budget.

The complexity of such a system is specified by its order N. N is often a constraint on the design of a transfer function since it specifies the number of reactive components in an analog circuit ; in a digital IIR filter the number of computations required is proportional to N.
