equation — A displayed mathematical equation
Common attributes and common linking attributes.
Additional attributes:
An Equation is a formal mathematical equation
(with an optional rather than required title).
If the MathML Module is used, Equation can
also contain the
mml:math
element.
Formatted as a displayed block.
For an inline equation, use InlineEquation.
Processing systems that number equations or build a table of
equations at the beginning of a document may have difficulty correctly
formatting documents that contain both Equations
with Titles and Equations
without Titles. You are advised to use
InformalEquation for equations without titles.
