Okay, I'm not sure how to get the formatting quite right... but here
is a sample:
'''{{Smallcaps| Average}}''' (numbers)
# total = 0
# '''for''' number ∈ numbers '''do'''
#: total = total + number
# '''end for'''
# return numbers / {{Smallcaps | Length}}(numbers)
this isn't *too* bad to write... I want to figure out how to get
explicit spacing with the numbering... and then I'll try it on a
collection of algorithms that I need to wikify and report back the
results.
Does anyone know how to get the numbering to work better?
