In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total. Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions , vectors , matrices , polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.
If an article requires extensive notation, consider introducing the notation as a bulleted list or separating it into a section titled "Notation". An article about a mathematical object should provide an exact definition of the object, perhaps in a "Definition" section after section(s) of motivation. For example:
This list of mathematical series contains formulae for finite and infinite sums. It can be used in conjunction with other tools for evaluating sums. It can be used in conjunction with other tools for evaluating sums.
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.
Except for the most common symbols such as letters, numerals, and basic punctuation, rendering of Unicode mathematical symbols can be inconsistent in size or alignment where fallback fonts do not match, and some readers may not have any font which includes certain uncommon symbols.
