Count : To count means to find out the number of objects by adding one for every object.

Addition : Addition is the mathematical operation that describes increasing a number by an amount equal to a second number. The mathematical symbol for addition is the plus sign $+.$ The term addition is also used for a generalization of this basic operation on numbers to functions, vectors and matrices.

Zero : The number 0.

Function : A function is a mapping in which every element in one set is mapped to exactly one element of a second set. Most often the mapping is described using a rule. For example the function $f(x)=x+1$ maps 2 to 3 and -1 to 0.

Squared : $x$ squared refers to the number $x^2=x\cdot x.$ For example 3 squared equals 9.
