In Combination
With regard to combination (or bundling) data, this is prevalent in any object that is created. An object's state will depend on its methods that do work on or with the object's internal data.
An analogy can be made here with the notion of a capsule, which not only encloses its contents, but also protects it from the exterior environment.

Famous quotes containing the word combination:
“Just as we need to encourage women to test life’s many options, we need to acknowledge real limits of energy and resources. It would be pointless and cruel to prescribe role combination for every woman at each moment of her life. Life has its seasons. There are moments when a woman ought to invest emotionally in many different roles, and other moments when she may need to conserve her psychological energies.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
