Succinctness
Look up succinct in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Succinctness is a characteristic of speech,[1] writing,[2] data structure,[3] algorithmic games,[4] and thought in general,[5] exhibiting both clarity and brevity.
Brevity in succinctness is not achieved by shortening original material by coding or compressing it, but rather by omitting redundant material from it.
