β | You can access array or hash entries similarly, e.g., <code>[$b[0]]</code> or <code>[$c{neg}]</code> or <code>[$d->{period}]</code>. |

Note that a variable that holds a [[:Category:MathObjects|MathObject]] can produce either a TeX string or a calculator-notation string; which one it produces depends on the context in which it is used. If it is inserted inside of TeX math delimiters (e.g., inside <code>[`...`]</code>), it will produce its TeX form, while if it is inserted inside calculator delimiters (e.g., <code>[: ... :]</code>), or not inside any delimiters, then it produces calculator-style notation. So if <code>$f = Formula("(x+1)/(x-1)")</code>, then |
