abstract:In category theory and its applications to mathematics, a biproduct of a finite collection of objects in a category with zero object is both a product and a coproduct. In a preadditive category the notions of product and coproduct coincide for finite collections of objects.
And this whole topic completely ignores the other, even rarer form of Heliem, the Isotope Helium3, which is formed only as a biproduct of the radioactive decay of the Tritium used in making nuclear missiles.
