is the definition that was submitted by a dictionary

Vote for TWO definitions, as a public forum or group message (in reply
to this one), before the deadline..

11:00 pm on Saturday, 24 Sep 2016 in the UK
6:00 pm on East Coast USA
3:00 pm on West Coast USA
8:00 am on 25 Sep in parts of Oz

New Players are welcome, even if you didn't submit a definition you may
vote.

mathematical formulae

7. a self-contained artificially created biome

8. the science and study of rainbows

With an amused nod to 3 and 8, and possibly 4, I’ll cast votes for 5 (for creativity/length) and 12 (because it’s just obscure enough to be true)
