10.  Input spaces

      Spaces and newlines within an expression are thrown away by EQN. (Normal text is left absolutely alone.) Thus between .EQ and .EN, x=y+z
and x = y + z
and x = y
+ z
and so on all produce the same output

[equation]

You should use spaces and newlines freely to make your input equations readable and easy to edit. In particular, very long lines are a bad idea, since they are often hard to fix if you make a mistake.
