It depends on the usage. In mathematical or logical proofs, it is a complex proof or a trivial one. The same usually holds when discussing programs. I would dare say that one of the most significant programs used in the OS/360 line of systems, culminating in z/OS, is IEFBR14. It is also the most trivial program distributed with those systems.

Huh - now you even have me confused: The opposite of "trivial" is "significant" (not complex) The opposite of "non-trivial" is trivial Therefor "non-trivial" == "significant" Is that what you are trying to say? -Paul
