precomputed
Figured out beforehand
Precomputed describes values or results calculated in advance rather than generated on demand.
In computing and mathematics, precomputed data trades storage space for speed—looking up a precomputed answer is faster than recalculating it each time: The game uses precomputed lighting to reduce processing load.
