Is it "discreet" or "discrete"?

What are you trying to say with it?

Discrete - individually separate, distinct

Discreet - Careful, judicious, circumspect

When talking about adult issues on WP, I tend to be discreet in my language.... not! :wink:

In order for the software to be developed efficiently, it was broken up into discrete modules and given to different groups of programmers.

Hope that helps.... hope that is correct :twisted:
