ergodic

1. (mathematics, physics) Of or relating to certain systems that, given enough time, will eventually return to a previously experienced state.Examples: "“The real world is not ergodic,” he says. “If I jump out of the window, that's it–it's not, like, a mistake I will learn from.”"

2. (statistics, engineering) Of or relating to a process in which every sequence or sample of sufficient size is equally representative of the whole.

3. (literature, information science) Of or relating to a literary work that requires nontrivial effort on the reader's part to traverse.Examples: "Therefore this chapter moves into two directions, cybertextually expanding (and reorganizing) the field of architextuality, and specifying the ergodic variety within it."
