Cartesian monoidal category
In mathematics, specifically in the field known as , a where the monoidal ("tensor") product is the is called a cartesian monoidal category. Any with finite products (a "finite product category") can be thought of as a cartesian monoidal category. In any cartesian monoidal category, the terminal object is the monoidal unit. , a monoidal finite coproduct category with the monoidal structure given by the coproduct and unit the initial object is called a cocartesian monoidal category, and any finite coproduct category can be thought of as a cocartesian monoidal category.
