Problem Detail: I thinkt this question fits better here than on english.stackexchange. When describing a figure in a computer science paper, is it safe to use “tick” meaning “tick mark”? Examples:
… (see the thick line right of tick “17”) meaning tick mark “17”
or … increase at tick “1e+02” … increase at tick mark “1e+02”.
… (see the thick line right of tick “17”) meaning tick mark “17”
or … increase at tick “1e+02” … increase at tick mark “1e+02”.
