== Non-Latin-based mathematical notation == [[Modern Arabic mathematical notation]] is based mostly on the [[Arabic alphabet]] and is used widely in the [[Arab world]], especially in pre-[[tertiary education]]. (Western notation uses [[Arabic numerals]], but the Arabic notation also replaces Latin letters and related symbols with Arabic script.) In addition to Arabic notation, mathematics also makes use of [[Greek alphabet|Greek letter]]s to denote a wide variety of mathematical objects and variables. On some occasions, certain [[Hebrew alphabet|Hebrew letter]]s are also used (such as in the context of [[infinite cardinal]]s). Some mathematical notations are mostly diagrammatic, and so are almost entirely script independent. Examples are [[Penrose graphical notation]] and [[Coxeter–Dynkin diagram]]s. Braille-based mathematical notations used by blind people include [[Nemeth Braille]] and [[GS8 Braille]].
