There are three special cases:
- p q (r s) | – This is a mixture of p q r | and p q s |.
- | p q r – Snub forms (alternated) are give this otherwise unused symbol.
- | p q r s – A unique snub form for U75 that isn't Wythoff-constructible.

Famous quotes containing the words summary and/or table:
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
“Will you greet your doom
As final; set him loaves and wine; knowing
The game is finished when he plays his ace,
And overturn the table and go into the next room?”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
