In the search for proper definitions for these terms we found no authoritative, nor even recognized, source. Thus, we followed the advice of mathematicians handed down from time immortal: "Wing It." CLEARLY: I don't want to write down all the "in- between" steps. TRIVIAL: If I have to show you how to do this, you're in the wrong class. OBVIOUSLY: I hope you weren't sleeping when we discussed this earlier, because I refuse to repeat it. RECALL: I shouldn't have to tell you this, but for those of you who erase your memory tapes after every test... WLOG (Without Loss Of Generality): I'm not about to do all the possible cases, so I'll do one and let you figure out the rest.

76. HTML Math operators. HTML math differentiates terms eg binary operators, variables, constants, integral signs, delimiters and so on. This http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html3/maths.html

HTML Math Permitted Context: %text Content Model: %math HTML math has been designed to be both concise and comparatively easy to read. In practice, formulae will be a little longer than in LaTeX, but much shorter than with other math proposals for SGML, for instance EuroMath or ISO 12083. This simplification has been achieved through the power of the BOX element, which replaces many elements in other proposals, as well as the simple conventions for binding the SUB and SUP elements and their use as generic raising and lowering operators. HTML math differentiates terms e.g. binary operators, variables, constants, integral signs, delimiters and so on. This simplifies rendering and reflects the assumptions adopted by LaTeX. It further allows the same raising and lowering operators to be used for many different roles according to the term they apply to. HTML math doesn't provide direct support for multi-line equations, as this can be effectively handled by combining math with the TABLE element. Example - the integral from a to b of f(x) over 1+x which can be rendered on a fixed pitch text-only medium as: HTML math follows general practice in mathematical typesetting by rendering functions, numbers and other constants in an upright font, while variables are rendered in an italic font. You can set particular terms in a bold face, and for chemical formulae, you can force the use of an upright font. Limits for symbols like the integral and summation signs are placed directly above (below) the symbol or to the immediate right depending on the symbol.

Such responses could include demonstrations, exhibits, portfolios, oral presentations, or essays. (Compare to traditional assessment analytical trait scoring: A method for assigning a summary score to a product, performance, or work sample based on a prior analysis that defined the key traits, dimensions, or characteristics possessed by the class of objects being scored. The object is scored independently against each dimension, and a summary score is calculated following a set formula. The summary score may be a simple total (or average) across dimensions, a weighted total, or a more complex algorithm. An example might be the scoring of a piece of persuasive writing on such traits as attention to audience, correct use of grammar and punctuation, focus on the topic, and persuasiveness of argument.
