The term "explicit" can have several meanings depending on the context in which it is used:

1. **Clear and Direct**: Explicit refers to something that is stated clearly and in detail, leaving no room for confusion or doubt. For example, explicit instructions are detailed and straightforward.

2. **Unambiguous Content**: In the context of media, such as movies, songs, or books, explicit often refers to content that includes strong language, graphic depictions of violence, or sexual content. An "explicit" label on a song or album indicates that it contains mature themes that may not be suitable for all audiences.

3. **In Programming and Mathematics**: Explicit can refer to clearly defined terms or equations. For instance, an explicit formula directly gives the value of a variable as a function of others, as opposed to an implicit formula, which may not provide such straightforward information.
