Content elements: ident to inverse
(Excerpt from "The MathML Handbook" by Pavi Sandhu)
ident
Syntax
<ident />
Description
The ident element represents the identity function. The domain and range of the identity function, as well as the type of operation it represents, all depend on the context in which the function is used. For example, if the ident element is used in the context of matrix multiplication, it will be interpreted as the identity matrix.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
image
Syntax
<apply><image /> function</apply>
Description
The image element represents the image of a function; that is, the set of values that results from applying the function to all points in its domain.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
imaginary
Syntax
<apply><imaginary /> arg1</apply>
Description
The imaginary element represents the imaginary part of a complex number specified as an argument.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
imaginaryi
Syntax
<imaginaryi />
Description
The imaginaryi element represents the number i; that is, the complex square root of -1.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
implies
Syntax
<apply><implies /> arg1 arg2</apply>
Description
The implies element is used to indicate that one expression implies another.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
in
Syntax
<apply><in /> element set</apply>
Description
The in element represents the relation that an element is a member of a set.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
infinity
Syntax
<infinity />
Description
The infinity element represents the concept of infinity. It has the default rendering ∞.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
int
Syntax
<apply><int /> variable expression</apply>
or
<apply><int /> variable limits expression</apply>
Description
The int element represents the operation of integration. Each variable of integration is specified using the qualifier element bvar. For definite integrals, you can indicate the region of integration in three different ways: using a pair of lowlimit and uplimit elements, using an interval element, or using a condition element.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
integers
Syntax
<apply><in /> expression <integers /></apply>
Description
The integers element represents the set of all integers, typically denoted by Z.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
intersect
Syntax
<apply><intersect /> set1 set2 ...</apply>
Description
The intersect element represents the intersection of two or more sets.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
interval
Syntax
<interval>left-boundary right-boundary</interval>
Description
The interval element is used to define intervals on the real line. It has two child elements, which specify the left and right boundaries of the interval.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding. In addition, it accepts the attribute shown in the following table.
Table: Attribute of interval.
Name | Values | Default |
---|---|---|
closure | open | closed | open-closed | closed-open | closed |
The closure attribute specifies the closure of an interval on the real line.
inverse
Syntax
<apply><inverse /> function</apply>
Description
The inverse element represents the inverse of a function.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
