<h3>Cancelling terms in maths expressions</h3>
<p/>A technique used when explaining the behaviour of expressions or
equations (often for pedagogical purposes).  The <i>cancel</i>
package provides several variants of cancellation marks
(&ldquo;<code>\</code>&rdquo;, &ldquo;<code>/</code>&rdquo; and &ldquo;<code>X</code>&rdquo;), and
a means of cancelling &lsquo;to&rsquo; a particular value.
<p/>Documentation of <i>cancel</i> is in the package file.
