  Numeric \Nu*mer"ic\, Numerical \Nu*mer"ic*al\, a. [Cf. F.

        numbers; expressed by numbers, and not letters; as,
        numerical characters; a numerical equation; a numerical
        statement.

           denote a value irrespective of its sign; thus, -5 is
           numerically greater than -3, though algebraically less.
           [1913 Webster]
  
     2. The same in number; hence, identically the same;
        identical; as, the same numerical body. [Obs.] --South.

              Would to God that all my fellow brethren, which with
              me bemoan the loss of their books, . . . might

              same numerical volumes.               --Fuller.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     3. relating to or having ability to think in or work with

        by substituting numbers for the letters, and reducing.
