{{MathMLRef}} 

The <mrow> MathML element is used to group sub-expressions, which usually contain one or more operators with their respective operands (such as {{ MathMLElement("mi") }}  and {{ MathMLElement("mn") }} ). This element renders as a horizontal row containing its arguments.

When writing a MathML expression, you should group elements within an <mrow> in the same way as they are grouped in the mathematical interpretation of the expression. Proper grouping helps the rendering of the expression in several ways:

• It can improve the display by possibly affecting spacing and preventing line breaks.
• It simplifies the interpretation of the expression by automated systems such as computer algebra systems and audio renderers.

Attributes

This element accepts the global MathML attributes.
