The Mathematical Markup Language (MathML)

• MathML is an instance of XML born to describe both content and presentation of mathematical expressions

• MathML is developed by a Working Group of the Worl Wide Web consortium, of which we are members. Here you can find the latest Working Draft (2.0)

• Two kinds of markup: content and presentation. There exists also elements to mix and link together content and presentation.

• The content elements can't be exhaustive (math is infinitary) ===> csymbols is an element added to "define" a new content element

• This is an example of content markup. This is a (corresponding) example of presentation markup.
