Object

  • sentence: Be careful not to disambiguate the sentence with your way of reading.
  • object: Generally, an address and a type are both necessary to disambiguate the object you mean within an inheritance hierarchy.
  • case: A simple depth ordered scheme such as that used by Koller [ 19 ] would not be sufficient to disambiguate all cases.
