### Crossword clues for dex

##### Wiktionary
dex

Etymology 1 n. (context physics and astrophysics English) An order or factor of ten. Used both to refer to the function $mathrm\left\{dex\right\}\left(x\right) = 10^x$ and the number of (possibly fractional) orders of magnitude separating two numbers. When dealing with log to the base 10 transform of a number set the transform of 10, 100, and 1 000 000 is $log_\left\{10\right\}\left(10\right) = 1$, $log_\left\{10\right\}\left(100\right) = 2$, and $log_\left\{10\right\}\left(1 000 000\right) = 6$, so the difference between 10 and 100 in base 10 is 1 dex and the difference between 1 and 1 000 000 is 6 dex.
