	Categories are organized as overlapping "[[Tree structure\|trees]]", formed by creating links between inter-related categories (in mathematics or computer science this structure is called <!---wp's cat.s don't have unique joins or meets---a lattice or---> a [[partially ordered set]]). Any category may contain (or "branch into") '''subcategories''', and it is possible for a category to be a subcategory of more than one "parent" category. (A is said to be a '''parent category''' of B when B is a subcategory of A.) <ref>Mathematically speaking, this means that the system approximates a [[directed acyclic graph]].</ref>		Categories are organized as overlapping "[[Tree structure\|trees]]", formed by creating links between inter-related categories (in mathematics or computer science this structure is called <!---sw's cat.s don't have unique joins or meets---a lattice or---> a [[partially ordered set]]).

	There is one top-level category, [[:Category:Contents]]. All other categories are found below this. Hence every category apart from this top one must be a subcategory of at least one other category.		There is one top-level category, [[:Category:Contents]]. All other categories are found below this.
