4. The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003)
infinite
 adj.

    [common] Consisting of a large number of objects; extreme. Used very
    loosely as in: ?This program produces infinite garbage.? ?He is an infinite
    loser.? The word most likely to follow infinite, though, is hair. (It has
    been pointed out that fractals are an excellent example of infinite hair.)
    These uses are abuses of the word's mathematical meaning. The term
    semi-infinite, denoting an immoderately large amount of some resource, is
    also heard. ?This compiler is taking a semi-infinite amount of time to
    optimize my program.? See also semi.


5. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018)
infinite

    1. Bigger than any natural number.  There are
   various formal set definitions in set theory: a set X is
   infinite if

   (i) There is a bijection between X and a proper subset of X.

   (ii) There is an injection from the set N of natural numbers to
   X.

   (iii) There is an injection from each natural number n to X.

   These definitions are not necessarily equivalent unless we
   accept the Axiom of Choice.

   2. The length of a line extended indefinitely.

   See also infinite loop, infinite set.
