Dotted decimal syntax diagrams
The syntax diagrams in our publications are available in dotted decimal format,
which is an accessible format that is available only if you are using a screen reader.
In dotted decimal format, each syntax element is written on a separate line. If two
or more syntax elements are always present together (or always absent together),
the elements can appear on the same line, because they can be considered as a
single compound syntax element.
Each line starts with a dotted decimal number; for example, 3 or 3.1 or 3.1.1. To
hear these numbers correctly, make sure that your screen reader is set to read
punctuation. All syntax elements that have the same dotted decimal number (for
example, all syntax elements that have the number 3.1) are mutually exclusive
