[Middle English fixen, from fix, fixed in position, from Latin fīxus, past participle of fīgere, to fasten; see dhīgw- in Indo-European roots.] fix′a·ble adj.Our Living Language Fixin' to ranks with y'all as one of the best known markers of dialects of the Southern United States, although it occasionally appears in the informal speech and writing of non-Southerners as well. Fixin' to means "on the verge of or in preparation for (doing a given thing)." It often follows a form of the verb to be, and it consists of the present participle of the verb fix followed by the infinitive marker to: They were fixin' to leave without me. Although locutions like is fixin' to can be used somewhat like the auxiliary verb will in sentences that describe future events, fixin' to can refer only to events that immediately follow the speaker's point of reference. One cannot say, We're fixin' to have a baby in a couple of years. The use of fixin' to as an immediate or proximate future is very common in African American Vernacular English, and is one of many features that this variety of English shares with Southern dialects. Although this expression sometimes appears in writing as fixing to, in speech it is usually pronounced fixin' to.fix (fɪks) vb (mainly tr) 1.

fix Nautical, etc the ascertaining of the navigational position, as of a ship, by radar, observation, etc. fix[fiks] (biology) To kill, harden, or preserve a tissue, organ, or organism by immersion in dilute acids, alcohol, or solutions of coagulants. (computer science) A piece of coding that is inserted in a computer program to correct an error. (navigation) A position of a vessel or craft determined by its master, pilot, or navigator through the use of some or all of the equipments and techniques available. FIX.On drawings, abbr. for fixture.fixi. A geographical position determined by visual reference to the surface, by reference to one or more radio navigational aids, by celestial plotting, or by other navigational plotting, including obtaining it by intersecting two or more position lines. In navigation, a relatively accurate position determined without reference to any former position. It can be classified as visual, sonic, celestial, electronic, radio, hyperbolic, LORAN (long-range navigation), radar, etc., depending upon the means of establishing it. ii. In photography, to render a photographic emulsion permanent by removing the unaffected light-sensitive material.FIX (networking)Federal Information Exchange.FIX (business, protocol)Financial Information eXchange.fix (3)1. The fixed point combinator. Called Y incombinatory logic. Fix is a higher-order function whichreturns a fixed point of its argument (which is a function).
fix :: (a -> a) -> afix f = f (fix f)
Which satisfies the equation
fix f = x such that f x = x.
Somewhat surprisingly, fix can be defined as the non-recursivelambda abstraction:
fix = \\ h . (\\ x . h (x x)) (\\ x . h (x x))
Since this involves self-application, it has an infinite type. A function defined by
f x1 .. xN = E
can be expressed as
f = fix (\\ f . \\ x1 ... \\ xN . E)= (\\ f . \\ x1 ... \\xN . E)(fix (\\ f . \\ x1 ... \\ xN . E))= let f = (fix (\\ f . \\ x1 ... \\ xN . E))in \\ x1 ... \\xN . E
If f does not occur free in E (i.e. it is not recursive)then this reduces to simply
f = \\ x1 ... \\ xN . E
In the case where N = 0 and f is free in E, this defines aninfinite data object, e.g.
ones = fix (\\ ones . 1 : ones)= (\\ ones . 1 : ones) (fix (\\ ones . 1 : ones))= 1 : (fix (\\ ones . 1 : ones))= 1 : 1 : ...
Fix f is also sometimes written as mu f where mu is the Greekletter or alternatively, if f = \\ x . E, written as mu x . E.

FixTo set the price of a good or service, especially by the collusion of two or more companies. For example, two railroad companies may agree to set an artificially high price for train tickets. If these companies control a sufficient market share of railroads, then customers have no choice but to pay the high prices. In general, price fixing is illegal, but some governments, especially in developing economies, both allow and encourage the practice. Neo-liberal economists consider price fixing an inefficient practice, and in the United States it is a criminal offense under the Sherman Act. See also: Antitrust.fix To set the price of a commodity. For example, commodity traders in London fix the price of gold on a daily basis.FIX
