NAME

       "LaTeXML::MathParser" - parses mathematics content

DESCRIPTION

       "LaTeXML::MathParser" parses the mathematical content of a document.  It uses
       Parse::RecDescent and a grammar "MathGrammar".

   Math Representation
       Needs description.

   Possibile Customizations
       Needs description.

   Convenience functions
       The following functions are exported for convenience in writing the grammar productions.

       "$node = New($name,$content,%attributes);"
           Creates a new "XMTok" node with given $name (a string or undef), and $content (a
           string or undef) (but at least one of name or content should be provided), and
           attributes.

       "$node = Arg($node,$n);"
           Returns the $n-th argument of an "XMApp" node; 0 is the operator node.

       "Annotate($node,%attributes);"
           Add attributes to $node.

       "$node = Apply($op,@args);"
           Create a new "XMApp" node representing the application of the node $op to the nodes
           @args.

       "$node = ApplyDelimited($op,@stuff);"
           Create a new "XMApp" node representing the application of the node $op to the
           arguments found in @stuff.  @stuff are delimited arguments in the sense that the
           leading and trailing nodes should represent open and close delimiters and the
           arguments are separated by punctuation nodes.

       "$node = InterpretDelimited($op,@stuff);"
           Similar to "ApplyDelimited", this interprets sequence of delimited, punctuated items
           as being the application of $op to those items.

       "$node = recApply(@ops,$arg);"
           Given a sequence of operators and an argument, forms the nested application
           "op(op(...(arg)))">.

       "$node = InvisibleTimes;"
           Creates an invisible times operator.

       "$boole = isMatchingClose($open,$close);"
           Checks whether $open and $close form a `normal' pair of delimiters, or if either is
           ".".

       "$node = Fence(@stuff);"
           Given a delimited sequence of nodes, starting and ending with open/close delimiters,
           and with intermediate nodes separated by punctuation or such, attempt to guess what
           type of thing is represented such as a set, absolute value, interval, and so on.

           This would be a good candidate for customization!

       "$node = NewFormulae(@stuff);"
           Given a set of formulas, construct a "Formulae" application, if there are more than
           one, else just return the first.

       "$node = NewList(@stuff);"
           Given a set of expressions, construct a "list" application, if there are more than
           one, else just return the first.

       "$node = LeftRec($arg1,@more);"
           Given an expr followed by repeated (op expr), compose the left recursive tree.  For
           example "a + b + c - d" would give "(- (+ a b c) d)">

       "MaybeFunction($token);"
           Note the possible use of $token as a function, which may cause incorrect parsing.
           This is used to generate warning messages.
