postfix
Add after end
Postfix describes something placed after another element.
In grammar, a postfix is an affix attached to the end of a word—what linguists more commonly call a suffix.
In mathematics and computing, postfix notation places operators after their operands: 3 4 + means add 3 and 4.
As a verb, to postfix is to attach something at the end: The code postfixes a timestamp to each filename.
