In economics, polytomous choice is a setting (model) with more than two choices; contrast to dichotomous choice. Polychotomous being the preferred term already published and in use to describe decisions involving variables with more than two states.
Famous quotes containing the word choice:
“But real action is in silent moments. The epochs of our life are not in the visible facts of our choice of a calling, our marriage, our acquisition of an office, and the like, but in a silent thought by the way-side as we walk; in a thought which revises our entire manner of life, and says,—”Thus hast thou done, but it were better thus.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
