For example, many notations for longĭivision are in use in different parts of the world today.

Mathematical presentation also varies across culturesĪnd geographical regions. Mathematical product of two variables H andĮ. Impossible to decide if this is the name of a chemical or a Presentations are possible depending on the context and style Presentational contexts, the multiplication operator might beĪs the spoken word "times". The difficulties in inferring semantics from a presentation stemįrom the fact that there are many to one mappings from presentation to Work directly with the underlying, formal, mathematical objects.Ĭontent Markup provides a rigorous, extensible semantic framework and But in many others cases, it is preferable to

In someĬases, heuristics may adequately infer mathematical semantics from Natural language, is nonetheless at times ambiguous,Ĭontext-dependent, and varies from community to community. Mathematical notation, though more rigorous than However, mathematics and its presentation should not be viewed as oneĪnd the same thing. Is distinguished both by its use of rigorous formal logic to defineĪnd analyze mathematical concepts, and by the use of a (relatively)įormal notational system to represent and communicate those concepts.
