The additive-symbols
descriptor lets you specify symbols when the value of a counter system
descriptor is additive
. The additive-symbols
descriptor defines additive tuples, each of which is a pair containing a symbol and a non-negative integer weight. The additive system is used to construct sign-value numbering systems such as Roman numerals.
Syntax
additive-symbols: 3 "0";
additive-symbols: 3 "0", 2 "\2E\20";
additive-symbols: 3 "0", 2 url(symbol.png);
When the system
descriptor is cyclic
, numeric
, alphabetic
, symbolic
, or fixed
, use the symbols
descriptor instead of additive-symbols
.
