Variable

rascal-1.0-SNAPSHOT

Synopsis​

Markup for a variable.

Syntax​

We use subscript syntax for variable indices.

  • \VarName
  • \VarName\ₐ

Watch out, only characters in this class are supported [aeh-pr-vx0-9()+-].

Description​

Variables in text and code are represented by Italic markup. They may be followed by one or more subscripts (enclosed by tildes).

Examples​

  • \Var gives Var.

  • \Var\₁ gives Var₁.

Pitfalls​

  • This feature is broken currently. The italics do not work in code fragments and subscripts are broken as well.
  • We only support a limited set of characters currently: [aeh-pr-vx0-9()+-]
