A paragraph is a composition consisting of a group of sentences dealing with
a single  topic.   A paragraph is commonly  indicated by beginning  on a new
line and indenting the first line.
    The TEXT1  program is  paragraph-oriented, that  is, it reads  an entire
paragraph before breaking it into lines.  Because TEXT1 reads by paragraphs,
the  \paragraph markup  comes at  the  end of  a paragraph,  instead  of the
beginning.   Thus,  to end a  paragraph, enter  the \paragraph  markup (or a
blank line) on the last line of  text or on a line by itself, which makes it
easier to spot paragraphs in the source.

This sample shows the relation of text to markup.

I raised it in order to characterize the
essence of Sociogeology. Will Durant recognized that
civilization existed by consent of geology---subject
to change without notice.
\paragraph
The definition of Sociogeology is the study of the
geological basis of all social behavior.
It explains human behavior by empirical description
of the attributes of mineral composition.
It is most successful when it provides detailed
description of particulate phenomena and first-order
correlations with features of the physical
environment.
 
One of its primary functions is to reformulate the
shaky foundations of social sciences in a way that
draws them into a modern synthesis with the hard
sciences.
 
\par
This article is an outline of the codification of
Sociogeology into a branch of evolutionary geology.
The subject has an aggregate of self-sufficient .  .  .

    ã|Notes:ã%
A blank  line also ends a  paragraph.   For this reason, blank  lines may be
used in place of \paragraph markup.
    Paragraphs are  not permitted in  math mode;  they cause errors.   Blank
lines will also cause errors in math mode.
    The   distance   between  paragraphs   is   determined   by  the   \par-
agraphskip   markup.        The   default   value  for   \paragraphskip   is
"0 points plus 3 points minus 0 points".     The "plus/minus"  specification
allows up to  3 additional points to be added  between paragraphs to get the
bottom of each page to line up properly is you are using \normalbottom.
    The  indent at  the beginning  of each  paragraph  is determined  by the
\paragraphindent markup.  The default value for indentation is 24 points.
    For a complete  discussion of how paragraphs are  read in and formatted,
refer to The TEXbook.
