(comment)	三項 is in lingdic and 演算子 is in edict and compdict, but I think the combo should to go in compdict as I don't often check lingdic when looking up words from a computer manual. Or at the very least 三項 should be added to compdict.

(comment)	The definition of this word is obvious when you look up both 末尾 and 再帰 in edict, but as I love it when edict gives me specific definitions to longer entries, I thought I'd start to contribute some. Please let me know if I shouldn't bother.
