adj. Requiring real thought or significant computing power. Often used as an
|
|
|
|
|
understated way of saying that a problem is quite difficult or impractical,
|
|
|
|
|
or even entirely unsolvable ( Proving P=NP is nontrivial ). The preferred
|
|
|
|
|
emphatic form is decidedly nontrivial. See trivial , uninteresting ,
