Abstract: Abstract In the free encyclopedia “Wikipedia”, one can find that the entry “system” is ambiguous and old. The word “system” comes from Greek and means a “compound object” ( σ υ ́ τ η μ α $$\upsigma \acute{\upupsilon }\uptau \upeta \upmu \upalpha$$ ), and this explains why it occurs in many different branches of science such as: social science (social system, law system), astronomy (solar system, system of planets, heliocentric system), philosophy (philosophical system), geology (geological system), anatomy (nervous system), mathematics (number system, decimal system, binary system), computer science (operating system), logic (deductive system) and many others.
