N Definition from Computer & Internet Dictionaries & Glossaries

FOLDOC
N
/N/ quant. 1. A large and indeterminate number of objects: "There were N bugs in that crock!" Also used in its original sense of a variable name: "This crock has N bugs, as N goes to infinity." (The true number of bugs is always at least N + 1; see Lubarsky's Law of Cybernetic Entomology.)
2. A variable whose value is inherited from the current context. For example, when a meal is being ordered at a restaurant, N may be understood to mean however many people there are at the table. From the remark "We'd like to order N wonton soups and a family dinner for N - 1" you can deduce that one person at the table wants to eat only soup, even though you don't know how many people there are.
3. "Nth": The ordinal counterpart of N, senses 1 and 2. "Now for the Nth and last time..." In the specific context "Nth-year grad student", N is generally assumed to be at least 4, and is usually 5 or more (see tenured graduate student). See also random numberstwo-to-the-N.

N

the fourteenth letter of English alphabet, is a vocal consonent, and, in allusion to its mode of formation, is called the dentinasal or linguanasal consonent. Its commoner sound is that heard in ran, done; but when immediately followed in the same word by the sound of g hard or k (as in single, sink, conquer), it usually represents the same sound as the digraph ng in sing, bring, etc. This is a simple but related sound, and is called the gutturo-nasal consonent.
  
(n.)
A measure of space equal to half an M (or em); an en.

    Ñ
    Ñ (lower case ñ) is a letter of the modern Roman alphabet formed by an N with a diacritical tilde. It is most notably used in the Spanish alphabet and Filipino Alphabet, where it represents a palatal nasal .

    Unlike many other alphabets that use diacritic marks (such as ü in Astur-Leonese), in Spanish and Filipino, Ñ is considered a letter in its own right, with its own name (eñe) and its own place in the alphabet (after N).

    Newline
    For other uses, see New Line (disambiguation).
    In computing, a newline (also known as a line break or end-of-line / EOL character) is a special character or sequence of characters signifying the end of a line of text. The name comes from the fact that the next character after the newline will appear on a new line — that is, on the next line below the text immediately preceding the newline. The actual codes representing a newline vary across hardware platforms and operating systems, which can be a problem when exchanging data between systems with different representations.
