<p>The following links document the various components that make up
MathJax. These are implemented as JavaScript objects contained within
the single global variable, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MathJax</span></tt>. Although JavaScript includes
an object system with some inheritance capabilities, they do not
constitute a full object-oriented programming model, so MathJax
implements its own object library. This means there is an ambiguity
when we speak of an “object”, as it could be either a native
JavaScript object, or a MathJax object. When the distinction is
importat, we will use <cite>Object</cite> (capitalized) or <cite>MathJax.Object</cite> for
the latter; the javascript object will always be listed in lower
case.</p>
