A mathematical equation is an identifying clause with the function structure:
- Identified^Process^Identifier
Solving the equation involves elaborating the same relation until the unknown Token conflates with the Identified and its mathematical Value conflates with the Identifier, giving the function structure of a decoding identifying clause:
- Identified/Token^Process^Identifier/Value
In a decoding clause such as this, the identity decodes the Token by reference to the Value.
