relative

In computing (of a value), variable and calculated from a base value. For example, a relative address is a memory location that is found by adding a variable to a base (fixed) address, and a relative cell reference locates a cell in a spreadsheet by its position relative to a base cell – perhaps directly to the left of the base cell or three columns to the right of the base cell. The opposite of relative is absolute.
