<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label cancellation</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Cancelling terms in maths expressions</h3>
<p>A technique used when explaining the behaviour of expressions or
equations (often for pedagogical purposes).  The <i>cancel</i>
package provides several variants of cancellation marks (&ldquo;<code>\</code>&rdquo;,
&ldquo;<code>/</code>&rdquo; and &ldquo;<code>X</code>&rdquo;), and a means of cancelling &lsquo;to&rsquo; a particular
value.
<p>Documentation of <i>cancel</i> is in the package file.
