Incompleteness: whether something is incomplete can only be determined in relation to something that allows for a closer determination. For this purpose, e.g. a continuation rule, a type description, or a categorization must be specified. Objects, which are also parts of something, can then be fully described as an object if they do not need the context of which they are a part. See also indeterminacy, determination, context/context dependency, description, description levels, completeness._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
