Abbreviation Expansion Dictionary Lookup for Rolls
Exact caller verified edition-specific RollAbbreviationcrosswalk; no unrestricted translation or historical abbreviation ambiguity resolution.
Description
Heraldic abbreviations depend on the language, publication and editorial conventions of the source.
Heraldic abbreviations depend on the language, publication and editorial conventions of the source.1
A source-qualified expansion crosswalk avoids treating an ambiguous abbreviation as a universally defined term. Use this tool to calculate abbreviation expansion dictionary lookup for rolls from the supplied measurements and assumptions.
When to use Abbreviation Expansion Dictionary Lookup for Rolls
Use this tool to calculate abbreviation expansion dictionary lookup for rolls from the supplied measurements and assumptions. Establish the source, heraldic authority or layout convention, and use one consistent coordinate and length basis.
How to use Abbreviation Expansion Dictionary Lookup for Rolls and understand its results
- Establish the source, heraldic authority or layout convention, and use one consistent coordinate and length basis.
- Enter queryTerms, callerVerifiedSourceTerms, callerVerifiedTargetTerms, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read result.mappedTerms. Interpret the fields using their units, signs and evidence conventions below.
- If input validation fails, correct the reported field and run again. Before applying the result, check reference scope, model assumptions and any missing evidence or placeholder values.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| queryTerms | Query terms | list of string | Required |
| callerVerifiedSourceTerms | Caller verified source terms; caller assertion or measurement requiring independent evidence | list of string | Required |
| callerVerifiedTargetTerms | Caller verified target terms; caller assertion or measurement requiring independent evidence | list of string | Required |
Enter aligned source and target terms with nonempty unique nonblank source keys of at most 128 UTF-16 units. For each query find its exact source key and return the target term at that position, preserving query order and repetitions. Unknown keys fail; no case folding, trimming, expansion inference or language detection occurs. The target text is supplied by the caller.
expandedQueries=queries.map(q=>targetTerms[indexOfExact(q,sourceTerms)]) Use the exact units, boundary rules, ordering and missing-evidence conventions above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Structured calculation or selected reference, with fields listed below | object |
| result.mappedTerms | Mapped Terms; follow the units, sign, ordering and evidence convention stated above | list of string |

}Limitations and assumptions
A source-qualified expansion crosswalk avoids treating an ambiguous abbreviation as a universally defined term. Interpretation depends on the units, sampling scope and exact model described above.
All listed fields require explicit values. Unexpected fields, incorrect types, nonfinite numbers and sparse evidence arrays fail validation; the specific bounds and alignment requirements are stated above. Extremely large inputs or outputs can also be rejected. An input error is distinct from a successful result reporting false, no matches or missing evidence.
