Section25Advanced Numbering

This section demonstrates the numbering patterns used throughout PreTeXt. There are five subsections. Two intermediate subsections each have two subsubsections. This creates a total of seven divisions that are leaves of the document tree. In each leaf we have placed two numbered theorems, for a total of fourteen. There is no real content, this is just a demonstration.

Use values of 0 through 3 for the numbering.theorems.level parameter to see how these numbers change accordingly. It is easiest to compare if you use chunk.level < 2 so the theorems all land on the same page if you are previewing in HTML.

Subsection25.1One

A document leaf.

Subsection25.2Two

Further subdivided.

Subsubsection25.2.1Uno

A document leaf.

Subsubsection25.2.2Dos

A document leaf.

Subsection25.3Three

A document leaf.

Subsection25.4Four

Further subdivided. We include two theorems as numbered items in the introduction to test their numbers, which should always be logical.

Subsubsection25.4.1Uno

A document leaf.

Subsubsection25.4.2Dos

A document leaf.

Conclusion now. We include two theorems as numbered items in the conclusion to test their numbers, which are sometimes totally illogical and are inconsistent across output formats. To see the effect, use --stringparam numbering.theorems.level 3 in the xsltproc invocation. See this GitHub issue for details.

Subsection25.5Five

A document leaf.

Subsection25.6Theorems in This Section

We have a lot of theorems in this section, so we illustrate including an automatic list of these here. We use the elements attribute to limit the list to theorem elements, and we use the scope attribute to limit the list to this section. You can use an introductory p like this one, or not. The list gets no title or visual separation, so use the usual subdivision elements to make that happen. The elements attribute can be a space-delimited list of many different elements. This list should not include the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Theorem 2.1. See a slightly different example in Appendix C.

Subsection25.7A Title with ] a Right Bracket

has trouble with brackets that end up inside optional arguments, so this is only a check on the defense against that.
