Mathematica 5.1 produced an output that I have never seen before from Mathematica - it was an algebraic expression that contained a different style of parentheses (I can't include the parentheses here because my email does not have the font for it) The parentheses are unlike any that I have seen before - they are like the regular parentheses (tall-style parentheses that are straight in the middle and curved at the top and bottom) that Mathematica uses in algebraic expressions, except the straight middle part of the parentheses is heavier/bolder than the curved parts at the top and bottom. I presume that this type of parentheses has a special meaning, but I can't find anything about it in the help browser or Mathematica book. If this type of parentheses has a special meaning, can someone tell me what it means? Thanks in advance, John
