Word origin

The word 'variant' originated from the Latin word 'variant-' which means 'changing, differing, variable'. The term has been used in various fields such as mathematics, biology, and technology to describe different versions or variations of something. The concept of variants has been crucial in evolution and adaptation processes in biology, as well as in software development and data analysis.
