SITUS, in Algebra and Geometry, denotes the situation of lines, surfaces, &c. Worfus delivers some things in geometry, which are not deduced from common analysis, particularly matters depending on the situs of lines and figures. Leibnitz has even founded a particular kind of analysis upon it, called calculus situs.
