1. present participle and gerund of skip

   Suppose we permit irregular skippings and connect, for example, 1 with 3 with 6 with 2 with 4 – but now we cannot skip any more because the only missing point is the adjacent point 5. 2008, Manfred Schroeder, Number Theory in Science and Communication, page 143
