Content elements: matrix to momentabout
(Excerpt from "The MathML Handbook" by Pavi Sandhu)
matrix
Syntax
<matrix>(<matrixrow> ... <matrixrow/>)*</matrix>
Description
The matrix element is used to represent a table or matrix. It contains a sequence of matrixrow elements, each corresponding to a single row of the table or matrix.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
matrixrow
Syntax
<matrixrow>(<mtd> ... <mtd/>)*</matrixrow>
Description
The matrixrow element is used to represent a row of a table or matrix. It always occurs as a child element of a matrix element and contains a sequence of mtd child elements, each corresponding to a single cell of the table or matrix.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
max
Syntax
<apply><max /> ... </apply>
Description
The max element represents the maximum of a set of numbers. You can specify the numbers as arguments or by using a condition.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
mean
Syntax
<apply><mean /> distribution</apply>
Description
The mean element represents the mean of a distribution or set of elements.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
median
Syntax
<apply><median /> distribution</apply>
Description
The median element represents the median of a distribution or set of elements.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
min
Syntax
<apply><min /> ... </apply>
Description
The min element represents the minimum of a set of numbers. You can specify the numbers as arguments or by using a condition.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
minus
Syntax
<apply><minus /> ... </apply>
Description
The minus element represents subtraction. It can take one or two arguments. By default, the subtraction is assumed to be over a real field, but the default semantics of the element can be modified using attributes, for example, to represent vector subtraction.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
mode
Syntax
<apply><mode /> distribution</apply>
Description
The mode element represents the mean of a distribution or set of elements.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
moment
Syntax
<apply>
<moment /> [<degree> ... </degree>][<momentabout> ... </momentabout>] distribution
</apply>
Description
The moment element represents the statistical moment of a distribution or set of elements about a point. The qualifier element degree is used to indicate the type of moment, and the momentabout element is used to specify the point about which the moment is taken. If these elements are omitted, the default values, 1 and 0, are assumed.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
momentabout
Syntax
<apply>
<moment /> [<degree> ... </degree>] [<momentabout> ... </momentabout>] distribution
</apply>
Description
The momentabout element represents the point about which the moment of a distribution or set of elements is taken. This element is always used as a qualifier element in conjunction with the moment element.
Attributes
This element accepts the attributes definitionURL and encoding.
