    y1 (eq)
    y2 (eq)
    y3 (eq); ! Footnote 2.

  ! Footnotes.
  ! 1. Could have used shorthand [y1 y2 y3@0];
  ! 2. note that "eq" can be anything it is just a word
  !    (or number) you make up. Everything that has (eq)
  !    next to it is cosntrained to be equal.
  !    We could have used shordhannd y1 y2 y3 (eq);
