segmentedlist — A segmented list, a list of sets of elements
Description
A SegmentedList

s) and a list of parallel sets of elements. Every SegListItem
contains a set of elements that have a one-to-one correspondence with the headings. Each of these elements is contained in a Seg
.
Processing expectations
Segmented lists can be formatted in a number of ways. Two popular formats are tabular and as a list of repeated headings and elements. In a tabular presentation, the SegmentedList
is the table. In the list presentation, the SegmentedList
surrounds the entire list of blocks of heading/element pairs.
