Common functions

In a maths environment, L^ATEX assumes that variables will have single-character names. Function names require special treatment. The advantage of using the following control sequences for common functions is that the text will not be put in math italic and subscripts/superscripts will be made into limits where appropriate.

\arccos	\arcsin	\arctan	\arg	\cos	\cosh	\cot
\coth	\csc	\deg	\det	\dim	\exp	\gcd
\hom	\inf	\ker	\lg	\lim	\liminf	\ln
\log	\max	\min	\Pr	sec	\sin	\sinh
\sup	\tan	\tanh
