Subscripts and superscripts are also smaller than the bulk of the text. My problem is, when i use writer and i want to write a superindex i use the keyboard keys : ctrl+uppercase (maysculas in spanish)+B, but the computer checks the state of the battery of the notebook, so i have to use the format menu, character, position, superindex. Superscripts are also used to denote power in math, so two squared would be the number two with a smaller number two as a superscript.īoth subscripts and superscripts almost always appear to the right of the noted text, although in some complex formulas and math problems, they do appear to the left. In this case, superscripts are usually numbers, though they can be letters as well. The Chicago Manual of Style requires superscripts as part of its footnote and endnote system of citation. Superscripts are used often in books, both fictional and non-fictional, to provide the reader with more information. Sometimes, subscripts are used in written texts. Subscripts can be numbers, letters, symbols or full words. They can also be used to include variables in some types of math. Subscripts are most often used in chemistry to denote chemical compounds. Subscripts and superscripts add information to the main bulk of the text, but both are used for different reasons.
