The copyright holder grants you permission to redistribute this
document freely as a verbatim copy. Furthermore, the copyright
holder permits you to develop any derived work from this document
provided that the following conditions are met.
a) The derived work acknowledges the fact that it is derived from
this document, and maintains a prominent reference in the
work to the original source.
b) The fact that the derived work is not the original OpenMath
document is stated prominently in the derived work. Moreover if
both this document and the derived work are Content Dictionaries
then the derived work must include a different CDName element,
chosen so that it cannot be confused with any works adopted by
the OpenMath Society. In particular, if there is a Content
Dictionary Group whose name is, for example, `math' containing
Content Dictionaries named `math1', `math2' etc., then you should
not name a derived Content Dictionary `mathN' where N is an integer.
However you are free to name it `private_mathN' or some such. This
is because the names `mathN' may be used by the OpenMath Society
for future extensions.
c) The derived work is distributed under terms that allow the
compilation of derived works, but keep paragraphs a) and b)
intact. The simplest way to do this is to distribute the derived
work under the OpenMath license, but this is not a requirement.
If you have questions about this license please contact the OpenMath
society at http://www.openmath.org.

This CD holds symbols denoting various types of numbers, vectors
and similar constructs. Principally these are required for
compatibility with MathML.
type
semantic-attribution
A symbol to be used within an OpenMath attribute to specify the type of
the object.
The variable z is attributed with a type for complex numbers, to be
represented in polar notation.
integer_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of an integer.
The variable z is attributed with a type for integers.
real_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of a real number.
The variable z is attributed with a type for real numbers.
rational_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of a rational number.
The variable z is attributed with a type for rational numbers.
complex_cartesian_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of a complex number specified in terms of its real and imaginary
parts.
The variable z is attributed with a type for complex numbers represented in
their Cartesian form.
complex_polar_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of a complex number specified in terms of its modulus and argument.
The variable z is attributed with a type for complex numbers represented in
their polar form.
constant_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey a
type for the common constants, pi ~= 3.1415, e ~= 2.718, i = square
root of -1, gamma ~= .5772, NaN, infinity (all in the nums cd), true
and false (in the logic cd). Also for MathML variables declared to
have type constant, as in <ci type="constant">x</ci>.
The variable z is attributed with a type for constants.
vector_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type of a (column) vector, an n-tuple of entries.
The variable z is attributed with a type for vectors.
list_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type for a list.
The variable z is attributed with a type for lists.
set_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type for a set.
The variable z is attributed with a type for sets.
matrix_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type for a matrix (n tuple of rows, where each row is an m tuple for
some m, it should be noted that each row must be the same length).
The variable z is attributed with a type for matrices.
fn_type
constant
A symbol to be used as the argument of the type symbol to convey the
type for a function name.
The variable f is attributed to say it represents a function.
