Top, bottom, switch
Top, bottom, and switch are terms used in various contexts, including physics, mathematics, computer science, and LGBTQ+ culture. This article will provide a detailed overview of these terms in each of these contexts.
Physics[edit | edit source]
In particle physics, the terms top and bottom refer to types of quarks, which are fundamental constituents of matter. The top quark is the heaviest of all observed elementary particles, while the bottom quark, also known as the beauty quark, is lighter and more stable.
Mathematics[edit | edit source]
In mathematics, particularly in order theory, the terms top and bottom are used to denote the greatest and least elements of a partially ordered set, respectively.
Computer Science[edit | edit source]
In computer science, a switch is a type of control statement in many programming languages, such as C, Java, and JavaScript. It allows a variable to be tested for equality against a list of values.
LGBTQ+ Culture[edit | edit source]
In LGBTQ+ culture, top, bottom, and switch are terms used to describe roles during sexual activities. A top is usually the partner who is doing the penetrating, a bottom is the partner who is being penetrated, and a switch is someone who enjoys both roles.
