associatively
Through mental connections
In a manner that connects or groups things based on association—linking related ideas, memories, or elements together.
The term appears in computing, mathematics, and psychology: The algorithm clusters data associatively, Memory works associatively, one thought triggering another.
In mathematics, an operation works associatively when grouping doesn't affect the result: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
