<h3>How do I typeset functions, such as max, det, that <I>Math</I>does not know about?</h3>
<P><I>Math</I> has a number of standard functions built-in, such as
cos, log etc.</P>
<P>These functions are typeset in an upright shape according to
typographical traditions.</P>
<P>To typeset other functions this way you can simply preceed the
function with<KBD> func</KBD>. Example:</P>
<UL>
	<LI>To typeset max(<I>a</I>,<I>b</I>) you should enter<KBD> func
	max(a,b)</KBD>.
</UL>
