Description
The
equation tag is used to set off
equations in CNXML documents by using the Math Mark-up Language
(MathML) or embedded media to display math.
Note:
You are strongly encouraged to use
equation with
Content MathML
tags when you want to display mathematical formulas or
equations in your CNXML document.
Example
This CNXML:
<equation id="simpleaddplain">
<name>Addition in a non-MathML module</name>
1 + 2 = 3
</equation>
Results in this display:
Simple addition in a non-MathML module
1 + 2 = 3
(2)

First,
equation may contain
an optional
name tag. Next, if the module
supports MathML, it must contain one
MathML
math tag. If the module does not support MathML, it must
contain either Unicode text, or one or more
media
tags.
