The point of representing n-tuples was brought up by Andreas Strotmann The discussion appears in the MathML 2.0: last Call Dispositions at: http://www.w3.org/Math/lastcall/response.html just search for n-tuple, it appears the resolvers believe that "It has been decided to continue to use lists and/or vectors to represent n-tuples at this time since whenever the standard definitions of a list (or vector) are inappropriate, the simple act of adding a definitionURL can be used to transform them into an appropriately defined object." I guess you can use OpenMath to define such an object all the best, Bill On Wed, 23 Mar 2005, George Georgiou wrote: > > Hi, > > thanks for the responses in previous answers.
