Etymology
The term 'indexable' originated from the word 'index,' which has its roots in Latin 'index' meaning 'one who points out, informer, or discoverer.' The suffix '-able' is commonly added to words to indicate the possibility or capability of the root word. In the context of computing, 'indexable' gained popularity with the rise of databases and search algorithms that required efficient indexing for quick data retrieval.
