- Subject: DOCBOOK: Markup for simple mathematical expressions
How do I correctly markup the expression '(n,k)' in the following phrase:
"The binomial coefficient (n,k) is equal to the number of subsets of
size k of a set of size n"
Later I want to markup the relationship
(n,k) = (n-1,k-) + (n-1,k)
as being a mahtematical expression/equation.
I've read through the documentation of InlineEquation, but I think
that's not what I need here. I do not need a nice-looking TeX-picture in
an InlineMediaObject, I only want to markup some characters as belonging
to a mathematical expression.
How do I do that?
Greetings,
Joachim
