What is the definition of 'resolution'?

Answer 1

Resolution has a few meanings:

• A resolution is the part of the story's plot line in which the problem of the story is resolved or worked out. This occurs after the falling action and is typically where the story ends.
• A resolution is the deciding factor in making a decision or making the decision itself, as stated in the Declaration of Independence.
• Resolution can also mean the display resolution of a digital television or computer display, which typically refers to the number of distinct pixels in each dimension that can be displayed. It can be an ambiguous term especially as the displayed resolution is controlled by all different factors in cathode ray tube (CRT) and flat panel or projection displays using fixed picture-element (pixel) arrays.
• A resolution is a formal expression by a meeting or something agreed to by a vote.
