{{defn|defn= Economy is generally regarded as a good thing in chess problem composition, though exactly what is meant by it, and exactly what it is most important to be economical with, is open to debate. Economy of material or force (not using more pieces than necessary), economy of space (using the chessboard to its fullest, not cramming all the pieces into one corner) and economy of motivation (keeping all lines in the solution relevant to the [[#theme|theme]]) are all regarded as important.}}

{{term|term= Excelsior |content = Excelsior {{anchor|Excelsior}} }}
{{defn|defn= A [[#problem|chess problem]] theme in which a pawn on its starting square in the initial position moves the length of the board to be promoted during the course of the solution. Named after one such problem by [[Sam Loyd]]; see [[Excelsior (chess problem)]].}}
