Examples

Example: `<mdn>` with Latex input

In the sample code above, the <mdn> component is used with nested <mrow> components to create aligned, numbered equations. Equations align vertically where the text & is entered in the <mrow>. Note that the numbering of an individual <mrow> within an <mdn> can be suppressed by setting the number attribute of the <mrow> to false.

Example: `<mdn>` with nested `<math>`

Although <mdn> is a Display Math component and is designed to accept expressions in LaTeX, it is also acceptable to nest content within a <math> component. The text marker & must occur outside any nested <math> components.
