Class Begingroup

java.lang.Object
  org.extex.interpreter.type.AbstractCode
      org.extex.unit.tex.group.Begingroup

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, Code

public class Begingroup
extends AbstractCode

This class provides an implementation for the primitive \begingroup.

The Primitive \begingroup

The primitive \begingroup starts a new group. The new group inherits all properties from the previous group.

The group is usually ended by a corresponding \endgroup. If the job is completed without encountering a proper \endgroup. then an error is raised.

Syntax

The formal description of this primitive is the following:

    ⟨begingroup⟩
      → \begingroup  

Examples
