Domain-specific

• Derangement
  • The carrier is a permutation of a finite labeled set, not any disordering, partial derangements require separate definitions and subfactorial notation and nearest-integer formulas depend on integer n.
• Radical symbol
  • For example, the distinction between constitutive identity and a convenient observable transfers from √9 denotes the principal square root 3, while solutions of x²=9 are ±3. to A typesetter extends the vinculum over the entire radicand, and an analyst avoids identities such as √(z²)=z without domain qualifications..
