Definition of category

• A group, often named or numbered, to which items are assigned based on similarity or defined criteria
• A collection of objects, together with a transitively closed collection of composable arrows between them, such that every object has an identity arrow, and such that arrow composition is associative

Examples

• This steep and dangerous climb belongs to the most difficult category
• I wouldnt put this book in the same category as the authors first novel
• One well-known category has sets as objects and functions as arrows
• Just as a monoid consists of an underlying set with a binary operation "on top of it" which is closed, associative and with an identity, a category consists of an underlying digraph with an arrow composition operation "on top of it" which is transitively closed, associative, and with an identity at each object. In fact, a categorys composition operation, when restricted to a single one of its objects, turns that objects set of arrows (which would all be loops) into a monoid
