| In mathematics, special graphs, notation and symbols are regularly used to represent concepts that are often quite abstract. Students are frequently confused by so many conventions, especially when their meaning changes from one level of education to the next, from one teacher to another or from one year to the next.
In order to standardize the teaching and ensure a more uniform understanding of the graphs, notation and symbols used in secondary school mathematics courses, the ministère de l'Éducation has provided teachers, schools, publishers, and authors of tests and examinations with a document which specifies the meaning of each of these conventions. This publication, which is a revised version of the document bearing the same title (code 16-3306A, 1982), is designed to make these conventions as universal as possible.
This document lists only those conventions that are most commonly used or that are necessary for the sake of consistency. Teachers are therefore encouraged to use the graphs, notation and symbolsfound in this publication.
